I have two big ones, I guess. I don't regret getting divorced and I also don't regret staying alive so I could save my brother from my abuser.

In a life otherwise filled to the brim with bad choices and missed opportunities, I’ve never regretted marrying my wife for even the barest second. I don’t know what I did to deserve her. I must have rescued a refugee boat full of babies and puppies and kittens in a past life.

The day I finally found the courage to stop doing fake smile in front of my friends when I'm broken inside. I cried for hours, and they gave me a lot of hugs, and listened to me. I get hugs everytime I meet them, and they are here for me when I'm hurt. I love them a lot.

Changed majors in college from what I thought was best that I should be (career/studies) to what I felt in my heart and which I wanted to do. Maybe not making as much $ but never happier because Im doing what I enjoy every day!

Save money and pay my apartment's mortgage, instead of going on cool vacations and spending at will like all my friends did. Made the final payment last year on 25 October. Looking at the inflation rate now, it was the best decision ever.

The time I went with my gut and decided to marry a man I hardly knew. I was visiting an older couple, friends of the family, who lived out of state. I went to church with them on Sunday morning and we sat with their best friends - another older couple. I sat down next to their son. I knew immediately that I had met the man I would marry. 4 months later, after weeks of driving back and forth to see each other on the weekends, and having to listen to all the “friends” who told me I was making a huge mistake, we tied the knot. 38 years later I still believe it was the best decision I have ever made.

I left a very toxic friendship of 10years. I would have done anything for them, I had loved them all through highschool and defended their bad behaviour generally. They never cared about me romantically unless they were between relationships but they would often tease me about being in love with them... because, high school drama lol.

We were very close in university, and most of the time I would have considered them my closest friend.

... cut to them kissing and grabbing at me without my consent, stone cold sober, while they were waiting for their gf's class to end (we were both in long term relationships). Despite pushing them and telling them to stop, they didn't and it crossed a massive line. I finally put my foot down and turned my back on them-- they didn't like that I was happy and in a good relationship they wanted me to always be an option for them. They had never done anything like that with me and while it broke my heart cutting them out of my life after so much time and history-- I couldn't have someone with so little respect or regard for me and women in general in my friends group.

Going back to college for my Applied Science in Dental Hygiene and becoming a registered dental hygienist. I had other passions and talents that people pushed me to follow as a career (like writing), but I wanted financial stability and to take advantage of the job market. Instead, helping people and taking care of them has become a passion, and I make enough money that I only need to work part time. I also have plenty of free time and the financial ability to try just about anything that attracts my interest. I was ridiculed by a lot of people in my friend circle when I began (about 20 years ago)because I wasn't pursuing a degree in something creative like art history or graphic design (very popular fields), but I'm practically the only person I know who still works in the field I went to school for. It has turned out to be one of the smartest choices I've ever made.
