Re: What is your biggest regret?

THat I didn't go away to college or at least abroad for a sememster.

Ok- After reading through all of our regrets, I have to say, I think everything happens for a reason. I would never have graduated with a good GPA if I was at an away school and I wouldn't have the career I have now. SO I guess, there really isn't any regrets.

Not learning how to save $$$$.



you took the words right out of my mouth

really mine is spending too much on credit cards- if you knew how much I have spent and paid off- you would die

and then I did it again- and now my DH is bailing me out for the last time- he said I get one free pass and then that's it

I am lucky that I have him- but I am a fool

Not getting any kind of degree. I wish I had at least an Associate's. Chat Icon School was always hard for me so I only have about 1 year's worth of credits, and a lot of them are in something I'm not interested in doing anymore.

partying too much in college, then screwing up , then having to come home and finish my degree 10 years after I graduated HS!



I did the same thing!!! I've been to 4 colleges! Chat Icon



Me too!! I've attended 4 colleges and I'm only 13 days away from graduation, except its 10 years after I would have graduated college had I not dropped out. It's one of my only regrets, now that I see what opportunities I've missed..

I regret saying something to my mom and mil about something that should have remained inside.

I regret not starting teaching sooner.

I regret never saying hi to my biggest high school crush when I had the opportunity. He was right there. Don't get me wrong, he wasn't my soul mate, but it would have proved something to me to just say hello.

another one....fighting with someone online that I didnt even know!! Chat Icon



3 colleges for me- and 7 years to get my degree- but I have to say it worked out for the best in the end

if I picked a better one- I would been happier-

if I sucked it up and stayed the 2.5 years- the condo I cashed in my bonds to buy would have increased in value from $100K to $250K- I went to Un of Colorado at Boulder

but I would have been miserable- I try not to think about it

Not maintaining my friendships...I've been very lonely lately and when I think about the silly things that I let end friendships I'm embarrassed

Re: What is your biggest regret?

Not admitting my true feelings for DH sooner. We both liked each other but didn't tell each other for ssooooo long. Had we admitted our feelings a year sooner, we could have had more time together and possibly have been married sooner. He believes if we had dated sooner than we did, it wouldn't have worked. I wish I had gotten smart sooner.

Re: What is your biggest regret?

Having my first son so young. Don't get me wrong, I love my sons and don't regret having either of them. But I had my first baby at 19 and because of that I dropped out of college. Now that most of my peers have thier B.A's including DH and I have nothing, I sometimes wish I had been more careful and not gotten pregnant.

My biggest regret would be being the type of person who tries to please everyone before she tries to please herself. I wish I learned to say "no" more often.

This is my one regret also. DH & I got together very young and I had Marissa at 20. I love her w/ all my heart but if I could do it over again. I would have done it so so differently. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
