Regret

I can understand what you mean and what you feel. I've been in this situation a lot of times in the past. However, I learned a great deal from those experiences. It made me realize that before I say something I need to think first if it's okay to say whatever I want to say at that moment. It sometimes happens that we say something we regret in the end in a middle of a heated argument. That's the reason when I am engaged in a confrontation I never forget to remind my self over and over that I should not lose my composure and should remain calm. I remind my self to think first before saying anything. It's hard to do but it's something that can be done.:)

Moments or regret. this can be an endless list. We would not ne human without our regrets in life. We a re always finding times when we wish we could turn the clock back. If only things had gone differently. Would our lives be changed or remain the same?

Good day... Word is the most powerful entity that can either create or destroy a person or a relationship. That's why we should be really careful in uttering things lest we want to regret it later on. As confucious said: " When anger rises think of the consequences."

All people have temperamental moments.The best thing is you leave a time. If you apologize quickly = you think that words was not true. If what you said is true, then you expect,the person will think that maybe you are right

I once said to my former girlfriend that I would rather choose to go abroad than to stay with her.I regretted saying so immediately.It meant breaking up.However,we had to face the truth.Yeah,I finally lost her.But I learnt much through it.

I dont think there is anyone that havent sayd something they didnt regret..even if it whas later! But since you cant turn back time to change it all you can do is look forward and try to mend the damage :) I know thats how I pull through!

Hi Rosie, At the end of the day you said it was true what you said even though you now regret saying it, the truth hurst but ifthis person is a good friend will reflect and take it onboard and one day may even thank you for it. You cannot unsay what has been said so just relax a bit over it and see what pans out when you next speak to the person. Huggles. Ellie :D

hi rosie I am sure most of us here have overreacted at one time or another and I did that just last evening. With my roommate too, so I had to backpedal as I do like her . its just that in most roommate scenarios one person is always too cold while the other one wants the windows open and the fan on. I was a tad outspoken last night with Kahtie as it was really too warm in our room, and the care giver who came in opened the windows as he said it was swelteringin ther. she bit#hed so he closed them. I said you just don not seeits summer, its june, it was hot outside and you are so darned afraid of a little fresh air. she looked hurt and said as usuall well I get cold. well I kid you not it must have been 85 in here. How couldshe be cold unless and this could well be she has congestive heart failure. so this afternoon I mentioned something about it must be hot out and she just said no but its nice,then she floored me. she opened the windows. this made me feel really sheepish.I did not want to fight with her.+

Its already been said my dear. The only good thing you can do here is to approach the person whom you hurt when you utter those words. Communication is really vital and it is really what I can advice for now. Don't wait for tomorrow or later, act now and say sorry sincerely. I guess nothing could go wrong when you just speak to the person face to face, not on phone, because it will not be a clear conversation. Just have a time and say to that person how sorry you were and you need to make it very sincere when you ask for apology. Hope all things will work better for the both of you.

if what you said was true you should'nt regret it,that's what's wrong with this world,people don't say what they really feel for fear of hurting someone,if it's the truth why not say it,i do,and if the person doesn't like it then that's too bad

I guess everybody experiences regretting over things better left unsaid. But don't knock yourself out because of it. You cannot undo it. All you can do is apologize, let yourself be heard. Talk to that person and say sorry for the offensive talk.. blah,blah, blah.. Good conversations, no matter how heated the topic is, can happen if you're calm and with a sound mind. I try to converse when I'm not mad anymore, so I can also listen to the person's side.

In certain times it is common with many people. It is nothing pre planned. You acted on the circumstances and things made you angry, you reacted. Such things happens when we are at hot tempered. Later on, when you become normal, you felt sorry of it. Now, if possible, you can contact the person and say sorry, if yor feel so. Regards, Thank-s
