We all regret certain decisions once we realize their repercussions. What is yours?

Not a single thing. I like where I am therefore can’t regret my actions or path. I’ve raised six good kids who are doing a good job raising our fifteen grandkids. Two weeks ago we became great grandparents. How could I want to change any of that?

I would move away from my abusive family much sooner. I wouldn't put so much time and effort trying to please them and to tolerate their insults and humiliation, as I understand now that you cannot change people.

And I wouldn't believe the religious b******t that I was told for years: "if they are still abusive this is your fault because you didn't pray enough, and you don't have enough faith and patience."

Whoever would use religion like this is a monster. I hope you're doing better now.

To not leave a large number of books behind when I moved from one place to another. A lot of them were first editions and would be worth quite a bit today...

I would stop myself from getting rid of my first car. I could have just fixed it.

Lol, my dad sold two of our old cars because something kept on going wrong, no matter how many times he tried to fix it or take them to the mechanic. He regrets it almost daily, and this was years ago.

I would change the first time I ever shoplifted.

It spawned a stealing addiction.

I played white elephant the other day, and ended up getting a hairy potter blanket, 2 jack and jill sodas, and a fancy hot cocoa bomb...

I dont like hairy potter so i traded the blanket away...

Traded a drink to someone for noodles and a new drink(which i will get later)....

Traded other drink for a 18" pack of twizzlers...

And cocoa bomb for giant bag of truffles...

I want meh blanket back even though it was hairy potter i am cold, i wish none of the trades had happened lol🙂🫠

No Harry Potter blanket? Okay. Two sodas gone for noodles, more soda, and twizzlers? Now I'm starting to lose hope. TRADED A COCOA BOMB?! Now why on God's green earth would you do that?

I would change my assigned sex at birth to a male, because I have always felt like I was born the wrong gender, and I hate that I was born a girl, I prefer to do masculine things, I hate doing girly things and wearing feminine clothes, men’s clothes are more comfortable and way cooler than women’s clothes.

It's great that you've found your identity and who you are, but I don't think you decided to be assigned male or female.

I would not take students loan to get a teachers college diploma but instead I'd take it to do a bachelors degree. Now my salary can't even pay my basic bills and the prospects of me getting that Degree in Human Ecology dwindles every ☹️

If I could tell my young fresh out of high school 18 year old self, please PLEASE stop putting yourself last just to make everyone else happy. It's not worth the debt of credit cards just to show off or the pain of laughing along to jokes made at your own expense or the mental anguish of being with someone you know doesn't love you it just isn't worth it

I would prevent myself from existing, my existence causes people to hate me, and I frankly deserve it, I make people miserable when they are near me, I ruin everything I do and touch. Maybe I shouldn’t have been born in the first place.

So many embarrassing things ive done i wish i could have not said/did. I wish I had grown my hair out sooner. I wish i had read a book series sooner. I wish I hadn't made the typo on my math quiz to gotten it wrong even tho the numbers were correct. I wish I hadn't commented this or that. I wish I had acknowledged my feelings instead of ignoring them for five years. so many things.

I would have liked to have a better senior year in high school versus getting too involved with one jealous, overly possessive, abusive ahole boyfriend
