Do you ever regret what you have done? Like the course you have taken. The faculty you chosen to study in university? And, the job you have choose. I think I do have some regret that I have not study enough. I have to keep on getting extra knowledge everyday.

I regret so many things I should have done in the past. Right now I try to make up for it as long as it's not too late. The biggest regret of my life was last year when my relationship failed. I tried my best to work it out, but it just did not happen. I guess I failed to make him feel secure. If only he knew how much I love him... my parents like him too. But he's not aware of it. I guess it wont matter to him at all because he doesn't feel the same way anymore.

Sure i have regrets of things i wish i had not done or said but i also have some regrets that i wish i should of done and one regret especially that i wish i would of done. However, i dont let it get me down or haunt me in anyway because as the poster above rightly said, we cant change the past so i try to leave it and move on with my life.

No I never do that, there's no reason to regret, you can't change the past anyway. Deal with what you've done and make the best of it :-)

Yes, I regret alot of passed opportunities. When I was in highschool I was invited to join 11 bands.. I passed up all of them, I was also invited to get a job at my favorite train themed resturant... Liberty Station.. I passed that up too. I wanted to work for the railroad and I had my heart set on that so strongly, that I even signed over all but 200 dollars of 36,000 after taxes of lottery money to my parents.. because I figured I'd be working on the railroad... I then learned to regret another thing.. I decided since I do not go anywhere anyhow I would wait until after I graduated to get my drivers licence.. I found out you have to have your drivers licence to work on the railroad ... My Dad and I were practicing... and I was told by a psychic you'll have to get it now or it will be a long long time before I do...
Well.. Dad is the only one who will take me driving, and he got into car accident and was sick for 4 years healing from that, then after he healed, my sister throw some childrens toys at my feet, then I broke my dang arm and shoulder... so took two years to finally be able to use that...
So now at the age of 27 with no job, not drivers licence, and realising how many opportunities passed me by as all those bands have made it.. the resturant is ran by new owners and they will not hire me, because my sister stole from them..
Its like Jeeeeeeesh... now I have 7 years with no work history, and I regret alot.. my Message to everyone is do not have your eyes and hearts set on something so much so.. that when you have opportunities for you that you do not later regret it..
I have grown so sensitive to everything, that there is no way I could ever work on the railroad now... so I can be pretty angry for the powers at be, and myself for not being able to see this sooner..
So please do not be so blind to not accept offers you will later regret.
Take care all,
