Stayed friends with old friends .....
I wish I could understand people better .....
I wish I had more patients ....
I wish I was a better person ....
Still working on some....... long since gave up on many!! Like the thread though, makes you think!

There are some days I regret a lot of things but if I hadn't lead the life I have I wouldn't be who I am today, and there are some days that I actually quite like me so that would be a shame.
There are some days I'd like to find the big 'clear chat' button.

i wish i had more self motivation, if i had that, things i wish i had done by now, id be able to rectify
There things I wish had not happened, things I have done with consequences I do not like. At the time I did the right thing.
The thing about 'if only' is we do not know how bad things would be if we did say 'no' instead of 'yes'.
Well.... there are things I would have done differently and situations that arose that caused pain etc but I am who I am as a person because of those things.
I'm 27 and have led a very interesting and full life so far - yes there have been some dark times, but how else would you appreciate or recognise the good?
Most if not all suffering comes from our human desire for people, objects etc - if you can recognise that then you are on to a winner!
No, no regrets.
Hmmmm....
Like a few others, wish I'd told my dad more how much he meant to me.....
Soooo wish I'd learned how to drive!
Wish I'd done better at school.
Would have preferred not to have met my first 'serious' boyfriend, but then it wouldn't have led to the chain of events that meant I met my hubby.
I suppose looking back, yeah, there's quite a few things I wish I could have done differently or better, but like people have said, it makes me the person I am today - and I don't think I'm THAT bad!
I wish I'd not wasted so much time regretting the things I hadn't done or worried about the consequences of doing them - and then wrote a big list of the things I want to do and still can - then went about making them happen...
oh hang on .. that's exactly what I just have done...
top of my list is to get a vintage vespa scooter and whizz about town like a little tart on wheels.. hurray - if i crash and die at least i;ll look good in process - ill just make sure i always wear my best knickers (if any) when im on my scooter.
Wish I'd moved out of manchester a long time ago.
you guys seem to be writing off your lives a little ealier than neccessary. There are some things you can change (do it.. no excuse is good enough to allow a lifetime of regret) and those that you can't( get over it too much fun to be had to waste time worrying.) But mopst of all concentrate on whats happening right now because if you miss that then you're only adding to your regrets.

I wish my mother pushed me to do well at school, I wish I was more assertive, I wish I could be bothered to find another job, just can't be arsed (comfort zone), I wish me and the wife were on the same wave length and not going in different direstions, how opposites attract, it's true.
I wish I bought a house in the country amongst the green background and not rammed in a city with lots of traffic, I love dogs but just don't have the time for em, I wish I had more time so that I could buy a dog and to live in a house in the countryside.

We all make some stupid decisions sometimes, but in the end, it makes us who we are :)
