What did it take to make you realize it was YOUR mistake, instead of blaming others?

My biggest mistake was getting married to my ex husband, right out of high school. It didn't give me time to find out who I was. I went from my dad telling me what to do, to a husband that did the same thing. But I learned my lesson and know who I am and dumped the idiot. I made the choice to marry him and now have made the choice that I divorced him.

Losing my virginity at 13 to my best friend. We both thought we were such losers that no one would ever want to be with us, so we did it just to see what it felt like. 1. it destroyed our friendship and 2. I look back on it now and wish I would have waited to do it with someone I truly loved and could actually enjoy it. That and not joining the Army when I was 18. I instead went to college and wasted $40,000 of my parents money on a stupid BA in English, instead of doing something really important to me. Now, it's way too late, and really I only have me to blame for those two mistakes

Marrying an abusive man. The day my second child was born I should've left but there was no help back then. Even people in my church knew & did nothing. We're not talking 20 years ago either!
I realized my mistake when he broke my nose, What did it take? He threatened the kids. Found a shelter & never looked back.

my biggest mistake was still dating this guy even if I was very unhappy with him and if my whole family and friends were worried about me. I still don't know why I stayed so long with him, but I'm sure it was a mistake. If I broke up sooner, it had be better for me, and for him too, because after 2 years he thought we were together till the end of our lives, so he was very sad when I broke up.

I married a man my parents warned me would be a liar, disloyal, and irresponsible. The marriage ended in divorce. Now, I have a child that the father has basically nothing to do with--- The heartache/issue has led me thru depression, disability, bankruptcy... It is my fault that this child has "no father."

Using cocaine and then becoming addicted to it. It was someone else who gave it to me the first time., I wanted to know what the big deal was. Well there certainly was no big deal there. I'd seen what it had done to others but still continued to spiral out of control. Thank god, today, I have that addiction under control.

Asking a woman to marry me. She took me to the cleaners after she returned my ring. BUT, I have since met and married a great woman that takes great care of me!

The fact that I cheated on this guy, who I wasn't even going out with. He didn't speak to me for two years. I didn't realise it was big. Ah well.
