More or less, anyone has taken mistakes, I woner what's your feeling and how will you do when the mistakes taken? My boyfriend often tells me no one never takes mistake, and let me take it easy but I always fail in recovering from the mistakes, I hate myself doing wrong till this thing done well, what about you?

the best thing for me is to do something right away to sort of reapair the mistake. if people get mad at you or ask you why you did that, all i have to say is: i did it and im now finding a way to repair it. works well for me and i feel good about myself

That's right, clock. All of us made mistakes in our life. As same as you, I really disppoint with myself and upset when I mad mistakes. And I keep thinking about it all the time.
These 2 years, I am getting better. You always learn something from you mistakes. That keep you going. So, I believe I made myself improved.

I hate to quote a movie... but if you have not seen Spiderman 3 yet this is what his Aunt says to him when he makes a mistake in his relationship:
"The first thing you have to do is to do the hardest thing... forgive yourself."
Wow those words are so true! How can you sincerley tell someone you are sorry for the mistakes you have made (or start to change to do things right) if you are busy beating yourself up?
Realize humans are not perfect. You are human. After you realize that set a goal to do better. Share with your boyfriend that you are truly sorry and that you plan to change. Tell him what you are going to do differently and let him explain how he feels.
Real love forgives and has "no record of wrongs" (1 Corinthians).
God Bless

Were on the same boat! no matter how people try to boost your spirit you'll still end up sulking and hating yourself for the mistakes you've committed. Lets face it we are the blue people who put emotions first over our minds thats why were having difficult time recovering and trying to learn from that mistakes. Sad to say no matter how people try to help us but they won';t be able to change us but we could control ourself because it won't bring any good and we cannot forever hold on to that mistakes we have to learn to let go and see other people what they're going through in their lives which is much worst than what were going through...I know this is super hard coz I myself can't do this 100% but im trying because I know its for the better.

I can related to you. I myself always have the same behavior in the past and I can affirm how difficult it is. I used to have difficulty coping on the circumstances of my mistakes and I was always being bothered by guilt. But later on, I realized that as long as we asked forgiveness to God and to people hurt by our actions or decisions and that we are sincerely sorry for having done such as mistake and that we've learned from it (that we can seriously say we will not repeat it), then, we should stopped torturing ourselves thinking about it all the time. We must forgive ourselves. After admiting the mistake, we should learn from it, and most importantly, we should not repeat it. :-)

I own up to my mistakes. If i can fix them, great, if not then I always try to help whomever to fix it. If you do not learn from your mistakes then I would suggest looking inside yourself as to why- If you keep doing the same thing over & over again and its not working for you..hello??? No one is perfect so everyone makes mistakes, its how you handle the situation afterwards that distinguishes you apart from others:)
