sometimes i just lost control of my words. there is so many words that i have said and i regret it. but still, i can't make any guarantee that someday i'd never said it again. how about you? what words you have said that you regret it? do you said it again?

Hi ifa I am by no means a perfect person and have said some things in my life while angry that I can certainly look back with regrets. It has however with time allowed me to be a better person. Because when I think about the situations I can weep and hence now be better because of what had happened. I do try now to take deep breaths and think before I open my mouth during angry moments. Do not want to add to the sad memories of not having thought before I spoke.

This all came with lessons of sudden and abrupt outbursts, although I am not perfect either, it has made me rethink. Thank you for the BR!

Sometimes, I also often out of control, and say something I regret in the end. Currently regret coming, I promise, to not say anymore. but sometimes re-spoken.

Hi Indah, i guess that is normal cause the same thing happens too to other member here. many of us said those words, even we regret it we often say it again when we loose our control. it is good to make our self cooing down after anger.

In all honesty, i know there have been many times that i have said words that I have come to regret. sadly, once these words have been spoken, they can not be taken back. We have to choose our words carefully. they will follow us.

Hi sender, that is the bad things about spoken words, we can't take it back when we done said it. sometimes when we get emotional, we can't choose the words appropriately.

Hi ifa Well, I believe words are never bad. It is only the tone in which we speak them out make them sound hurting. Yes, at times when I get angry I use such tones that make me feel bad and especially when I realize that it was my fault after all... But that is done and the hurt and damage is started. Luckily we are humans and have a tendency to forget in due course of time and so the relationships continue even if we used such tones a few occasions.

Hi Sid , It is only the tone in which we speak them out make them sound hurting so if i called you -i am sorry first of all- you je^k in a sweet voice then it won't hurt? maybe i will try some bad words in a sweet tone voice

There are many words that I say, which makes me disappointed in the end. Especially when I'm angry. Very difficult, to control the words that I utter. And I always repeat it.

when we are in normal emotions, we must be regret those words. i my self even know that is bad- also repeat it. maybe i have to learn to control anger more so i can beat all those bad words

For me no it can't explain by the words only but you can said no unless you would make it right by action.

Hi Ifa.... I think I had many word thats I really should said because I know it will hurt the one who heard it but when angger take control over you sometimes you can not control it. I think the word I hate you the most often i said if I mad and feel really hurt. I personally don't wanna hurt any one with my nasty word because I know how its feel to be hurt and not planned to put any one in the same situation like I have been dealing with.

Hi Nangisha, sometimes i nag and complain about others behavior which really annoy me with a bad way. \ i know that is hurt, but sometimes i just don't know how to say it in a better way. i only want the person know that he is annoying and hoping he woon't doing the same thing in the future

Hi, Yes, I often say something that does not need to say. And in the end I'm sorry to myself. But that does not make a guarantee for me to say it again. It only deals with emotional problems alone, if I'm wrong, then I could not control the situation to force me to say that bad. It's not easy to fix just me. Only a spontaneity that comes out of my mouth.

Hi Gengeni, don't worry, i am with you too. it is not easy to fix it cause we have ego inside. i try for years to be a calm and low voice person and that is soooo hard. till now i still loose control and i just said those regretting words

People like my age know better than to talk irresponsibly.Experience teaches.We deep know that trouble frequently arises from mouth.However natural instincts of people vary greatly from person to person,some people are frank and outspoken,It seems that nothing can hinder them from speaking.

I think everyone has said some things they have regretted saying. Even the nicest person in the world could not possibly live a life in which they did not say anything that they did not regret later on. As for me, I have done this a couple times, yes. I also can't make any guarantee that I won't repeat myself again someday. No one is perfect.

Hi Cherry, that is a thoughtful idea. good people can't always do good things, but they earn from the mistake that they have done and keep fix them self to be a better man.

I do regret things that I have done and said. I usually feel this. However, there is one thing I have not regretted in my life. It was the day that I have said to someone that I'll not text him anymore. From that day on, I really stick on what I have said. Though, he keeps on tempting me to text him back. And I actually lessen my exposure to him. I let him go actually. And I never regret that decision I have made. It is indeed better if we will just set each other free. So that we would not hope anything about us. Remember, hold on to your pride sometimes and never regret something because what you've said and done our once your choice to be done.

hi zearah and karstine it is true that words are lingering in our mind. we never realized it how words are really impact in our daily life. and great that karstine had realized something bad but that was just must be done to make things better

"Regret" I had much but these make me stronger enough to correct those words I said then later I regret.In what way it makes me stronger? Because by the time goes and while I reminisce the past I could imagine I could say better than that.A word is sharper than a sword because it could wound any soft heart.

Hi ifa, almost everyone at some point of time will lost control on them and will speak such hurting words, even i do that, but all i can say is a SORRY but i know that doesn't take the complete pain given by me at that point of time.

Hi Sunny5u, sorry seem can't heal totally the hurt that we had put in someone's heart. i know that we are only human can hurt anybody, but by that way we can learn something and experience is the best teacher for us to learn a lesson

Hi Bryan, i do admit myself that sometimes i do that too. when we angry, we tend to loose control. there is so many words that i regret too. but from there i learn to control the words

hello, Like you because of angry I said many things that hurt a person. I regret it in the end because I just dont meant it at all. I just said like "I HATE YOU!", "I REGRET THAT I MEET YOU". something like that. but i promise that I wont say it anymore because I know if somebody will tell it to me I will also hurt about that.

Sometimes people say something that could hurt the feelings of other people. We can't blame our self for that, we are human and human in nature commit mistakes. I always hurt many people because I don't mind or consider what they feel; as long as I am honest with what I say it is fine with me. But I was wrong. many people started to hate with me and some are getting away with me. Then, I realized that to make the things better, I must change. From being a bad person to a productive one. Saying bad words to a person is the most worst thing I really regret of. If I have a chance to bring back time , i will. So that I won't hurt people and change what I have done. Before saying bad words with others was my daily word of wisdom, I always told in that many person especially when I am mad. But now, I am good, a good person that I could not imagine.
