Whats the biggest mistake you ever made?

Question

Mine is to shameful to say.

Answer 1

Not taking school serious. My kids wouldn't be game to muck around at school. They have and will continue to have it drummed into their heads that they are there to learn, not **** around. To get what they want in life and to be what they want to be, they need to do well at school. There is after school and weekends for all of that other stuff. Of course it wasn't until I got older that I realised how important it is. I didn't complete my final year. I have learnt from my mistake and next year I'm off to uni. I also wanted to go to uni to show my kids that even though I did drop out, I still went back and finished it. It's never to late but you should do it right the first time.
And I have dated some ******* losers that were big mistakes. Lucky those mistakes can be easily solved.

Answer 2

Mine is shameful too and I'm sure we all have skeletons in all of our closets, I'm brave enough to share mine so that maybe someone else will not make the same mistake I did.

Honestly the biggest mistake I ever made was cheating on my ex-fiancee. We were both unhappy in the relationships direction but we had a baby on the way. After the baby was born, I ended up sleeping with a mutual friend of ours. After all that had happened I broke it off with my fiancee at the time. I refused to date the other guy because I came to my senses and thought it over because he was married and that is wrong! It was the biggest mistake of my life becasue I ruined my own relationship worse than what it was and his relationship with his wife was in serious jepordy. It took me a very long time to forgive myself for this and if I could change it I would.

I know wrong and shameful but this was 2 years ago and I will never, ever repeat it! I learned my lesson.

Answer 3

I guess it was losing the "I" part of me. I forgot that I had the strength and the power to stand on my own legs, proud and tall... That I had a voice of my own and that the whole world was waiting to hear it :D. When my ex broke up with me, I was shattered and broken. It was a very good thing because I realized that I must never be too dependent on anybody, and that my dreams are what I am here for mainly. That relationship ended in such dirt and crap, friendship seems to be the only clean thing in life... And I just wanna keep it that way. I have awesome friends, and all my stress is gone. I can feel the difference everyday, I'm much more confident and much more strong. Experience is a hard teacher; she gives the tests first and the lesson afterwards. But strangely, this method of teaching sinks the lesson deeper into our blood more than any way else.

Answer 4

I've made a lot- most recently taking my (now ex) fiance for granted.

I also regret not taking high school seriously enough, and making myself unhealthy because I wanted a body that would make a man who couldn't be pleased happy.

Finally- I wish I'd never started smoking. That's a big one.
