if you had the choice to go back to wen you are younger and you knew wat u know now..wud u ?

Question

and if yes wat wud you change and why? and if not why wudnt you

Answer 1

No i really really wouldnt!!! I havnt lived a great life i made lots of mistakes and destroyed many decent opportunities but still no. I try to live my life without regreting anything. Thers just no point in regret because reality means u CANT go back so thinking about it will only make u feel worse.
Correct me if im wrong but it seems to me as if your regreting something and perhaps hoping, wishing u cud change it? If im right id just like to offer you some advice from some one who's heard it all before. Stop living in the "what If" it only makes it worse start living how u WANT to be. People will respect you more if you put the past in the past and be who you want to be!!!
Regrets are just bad memories and no one wants to remember them!!!

Answer 2

Yes, I would. But that 's probably why it's not possible. Many people woud change things and upset the world as we know it. Didn't you ever see Back to the Future?

First and farmost, of course I would know all the lotto #'s so I would be rich (ha ha).
But the main thing I suppose would have been that I would have taken my mom's advise and waited to start my family. They say hindsight is 20/20. I think I missed out on a lot of growing up being a 21 yr old wife and 22 yr old new mother. Back in my grandmother's time that is nothing short of good, but in todays day anad age with mothers getting older and older, I can't help but to think that maturity has a great deal to do with being a better mom. I sacrificed a lot of my youth to be a great mom. No regrets as far as giving my 20's to my kids, but I think it would have been nice to have "really lived" first (smile). A Lot of my friends are just begining now, they have babies and I have school aged kids....sometimes I miss it. And though I wish I could do the "babything" all over again, when I think of the fact that my babies have come this far, to start over again seems ludacris.

So because we can't go back and change the past, we have to make the most of the present and look to the future. My husband and I have put a positive swing on our thoughts in that we are looking forward to the fact that when they finally grow up we will still be young and we'll live then (smile). The added bonus is that we will be financially set, a level that we didn't have when we started out.

When our friends are going through the jr. high or teenage years, we'll be waaaaay past that and going on cruises and spending alone time. And they'll be jealous of all our "free of kids time"....Yeeeah!

Answer 3

It's hard for me to say yes because everything that happens in a person's life is for a reason and I believe a person is pre-destined to go through things for a learning purpose-whether we see the situation as good or bad, it's all for the best. I could easily say that I would go back and change the fact that I was sexually abused by my stepfather, but that's part of what makes me who I am today. And it's the same with everyone else, whether they see it or not. It's so hard to be a victim of sexual abuse....I am 26 yrs old and I still struggle from time to time, but I still would not go back and change things. There's only one thing I maybe would change---live my life to the fullest as a child is expected to do; also, I would have straight A's throughout school, lol!!

Answer 4

Life has been pretty crap, but if i could go back and change anything i do not think i would. throughout all the bad stuff i have learnt invaluable lessons not only about other people and life in general but also a lot about myself. Things still aren't perfect but i like who i am, and it is all these experiences that have made me who i am, if i changed something, although i would make less mistakes, i may end up making these mistakes later on in life and may not be the person i am today.

Answer 5

I would change the way I treated my parents and not act like I had a god given right to act however I wanted. I would also change the things that I regretted doing so as not to cause bad feelings towards other people.
I'd also use all the Lotto numbers to make myself a millionaire and buy loads of friends!

Answer 6

I would definitely go back to when I was at Primary School and I would not let the bullying happen, I would be a confident and popular child and I would have lots of friends. I would stand up for myself, I wouldn`t be sad every day and dread going to school. I would carry my confidence throughout my school changes and would not be abused by the other children like I was then.

Answer 7

I wouldn't do it and I wouldn't change anything even if I did go back. Everyone has a fair share of good luck and bad luck so even if you could 'correct' a mistake as it were you would most probably end up with something else going wrong. Who knows it could be even worse the second time round.

Besides, wasn't learning about the world fun in itself?

Answer 8

yes, so I could change some of the things I've done and correct the mistakes I made; also to make sure I tell the ones I love how much repect and how gratefull I am for all their sage advice and careing. I could change some of the sorrow and heartaches and headaches, and just the dumbness.

Answer 9

I don't know.
There are a few things I would do differently. One is to stand up to the abusers in my life. If I would have known then how much, and how long they would screw up my life, I would have stood up to them then. Worse case scenario, would have been hospitalization.
But on the other hand, if I stopped them would I be the same person I am now, would I even be alive.

Answer 10

yeah sure, I would go back to school and be coq of the school with my kung fu, and probably get thrown out and end up on a ride of debauchery instead.

Though I would probably make the same mistakes again, it would just make school a freeride.

But yeh, even if it all happened exactly the same I would, its easier than settling down.
