regrets, i've had a few...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I regret not going to university straight out of school, and fannying about for such a long time academically.

I regret quitting my last job - did not anticipate how difficult it would be to find a new one in the current climate.

I regret the amount of precious time I used to plough into relationships with men who weren't at all good for me.

And most of all I regret the many times I have hurt the people in my life who do genuinely care for me. Thank god, they're all still there.

I don't think regret is a destructive thing either as long as you don't wallow in it. Learn your lessons and get on with it, is the best way, I think.

No big regrets.

Sure, I've let some crappy people into my life in the past, been out with people who've been unfaithful/selfish, and so on, but don't think it's worth regreting things like that - I'd jut prefer to move on and exclude those people from the rest of my life.

Not speaking to my cousin for the last thirteen years and then being old she passed away 2 weeks ago.

Not doing everything possible for my mother when she was needing it,
a regret that will last a lifetime

Amen to that one! :(

Don't we have marketable skills?! You'd soar in a spiral-staircase-showroom, and I'm a professional drink-percentage tester. Come ON, employers!

cutting way too many people out of my life - no explanations, just like that.

too many bridges burnt, and only now do i realise that i screwed up badly.

it all seemed such a good idea at the time :?
