Do you regret anything from your past?

hmmmm this is hard. as you know what happened with my past.... i can not say that i regret it for i have four lovely children. i can not say that i did not regret it for it was a disaster. it is still painful to my heart everytime i think of what was the life i had during the days that i was with him. i completely moved on already but once i touched the scars the pain is still there.

I think that we all have regrets but it's only by making mistakes that we learn and grow. I remember when I was a teenager and there was no adult who knew anything more than I did. I had to stumble and find my way. I see many younger people making the same mistakes that I did but you really can't tell anyone anything. We each have to learn on our own, don't we?

i have so many things that i am not proud of with my past. most of it consist of the memories that i have hurt people. but i know it's bound to happen. we can never grow maturely if it weren't for those mistakes. and i know there are some nights in where i wish that i could turn back time and redo all the things i;'ve done. but life always moves on. =) whenever i am reminded by those hurts, all i know is that God has forgiven and i know in my heart that i have forgiven myself too as i have asked forgiveness from those i have hurt. =) =)

It is odd that you brought this up because I was thinking of regrets when I was driving to work tonight. My thoughts on regrets... they are like poop, they stink and should be disposed of quickly... meaning, what's done is done and the only thing we can do from past experiences is learn from them, just as you state.

I regret not going to University and getting married way too young and to the wrong person! If those two incidents had not occurred my life would have been quite different, I'm sure. I have a much happier life now but if I had made different choices to begin with I would have saved myself a lot of pain. I have to wonder though would I be the same person if I had not learned my lessons the hard way?

yes that's true weall learn from our past mistakes...and also should move forward...that's what life teaches us...those who stays there,others levae them behind as noone has time to stop...but i think we all are moving in a circular way...that's why they say what goes around comes around...well i am sure you haven't done any mistakes which have costed you a fortune... :)

What I regret from my past is cheating on my partner. It was the most stupid thing I had ever done in my life and I've done quite a few stupid things. I'm thankful that my partner forgave me though and I have learned quite a few things from that mistake. It made me a better person and a more attentive partner.

Hello the_dutchess. I know that all of us has made mistakes in the past and regreted doing it. I have a lot of things that I regret doing. I learned a lot from my mistakes and as much as possible avoid doing them again.

i really dont regret any thing that i've done in the past. theres a reason that they call it the past. its pointless to worry about the things that you cant change. all you can do is learn form them so that you dont make them again. ya there are things that i've done that i wish i hadnt have done, but i just think of it as a learning experance in life.

I'm young, I know. That doesn't give me a lot of credibility in a lot of subjects. But Still, I've realized this about life: You are who you are because of what you go through. I try to live right, but now, I know I've done those dreaded STUPID THINGS. Like fighting in school, bad cash decisions...etc. But I don't really regret it. I never really regret the things I do. I take them and learn from them, and I think that's best. It reduces the stress you put on yourself.

I have done many things that I regret. I can't change the past, but I can definitely not repeat those mistakes in the future. The main thing is to learn from your mistakes, grow and become a better person for it.

Honestly, no. Regret doesn't really do any good. You can't change the past. Sure, you can learn from your mistakes, but all the regret in the world won't fix anything.

i regret gettin fat when i was younger, it ruined my social life at the time, i managed to loose the weight in about a year and it was really easy so i dont know why i didnt do it before now im fit as a fiddle and regularley go running

yes, i do regret some of the things i have done in my past..i wish i never did such things..but then it's over so the only thing i can do now is to learn from those things and not to do it anymore..

There is nothing about my past that I regret. I have learned so much from the mistakes I have made and heartaches that I have had. They have helped shape who I am so why should I regret it?

I think most of us regrets things from our past, but being past there is nothing we can do about it - meaning it cannot be undone. We have a choice though - we can let it go, maybe forgive ourselves or others for what happens, and if we can manage to do this, we will move on and cease being victims of our own karma. :-) Derek

There are some things in the past that i wish i did not do.. but those things also are the ones brought me where I am now. I can call it Blessing in disguise. Sometimes we don;t understand that things happened with a purpose. Though I regret but then I would just think it positively that things has it's purpose.

Of course everyone does, If I knew then what I know now I wouldn't have done_____ WE are all human and make mistakes.

As much as the things I 'regret'/ want to forget make me want to puke, I feel the lessons I learned from them are so important to me now that I wouldn't change my life if I ever had the chance. I feel like we make mistakes for a reason, we are born dumb and life teaches us things to survive.

yes, i regretted my first relationship hahaha. if i could undo something in the past that would be not going into the relationship with my first boyfriend. i feel that i was so stupid before, falling for that jerk, he is not even good looking what the hell did i see in that jerk. after like 5 months, he ditched me for a schoolmate. it was a long distance relationship so we did not spend a lot of time together. i have met his family though and i thought he was serious, duh what a big joke that was. hahaha obviously i have not forgiven him for ditching me. but its okay that we broke up. after 3 yrs, he ditched the girl for another girl so its better for me that i only invested 5 months in him while the other girl invested 3 yrs of her time for that jerk. hahaha, am i so bad not being able to forgive him, i just could not bring myself to forgive him, maybe in time, but not now haha.
