What is your biggest regret?

Question

Mine is that I just don't know how to stay with a great girl when I'm with one. I let the perfect one get away and I had tried to find her but I just couldn't. After that I would meet great girls but never hung around long enough to see what could happen.
You just have to learn not to make the same mistake over and over or it will forever consume you.
I now have found a great girl and have a son that I love with all my heart because I learned to appreciate what I have and stay around to see it grow.

This might be to late but I'm sorry for those whom were really hurt or had something terrible happen.
I realize my regret is so small compared to others.
I truly am sorry for this and for many of you.

Answer 1

My biggest regret is not speaking up when my father molested me at age 4. It haunts me till today.

Answer 2

My biggest regret is when my children were young I thought that a clean house was more important than anything else. When they would ask me to play with them I always had laundry or mopping or some cleaning to do. I stopped them from jumping in mud puddles because all I could see were more dirty clothes. I didn't let them play in the rain because all I could see were doctor's bills if they caught a cold.

But my children are all grown now and I am proud to say that I too have learned to appreciate the little things in life. I am raising two of my seven grandchildren and we play in the rain, we stomp in every puddle and we make mud pies. My house isn't the cleanest but my toddlers are the happiest. And so am I.

Answer 3

Getting talked into getting my long hair cut and permed (many years ago) because it will be "so much easier to take care of". The idiot burned it so that every 3 months I had to go have 3 inches cut off until it was healthy again. It never did grow back in as healthy as it was. What a jerk I was. I learned a lesson. No one has ever talked me into anything since.

Answer 7

mine's when i was caught having sex by my dad... he never really trusted me ever since... i've been living with my nana baez (my grandma on my dad's side), but even though this incident happened four years ago (i was in eighth grade) he hasn't really forgiven me and he barely talks to me. even at family reunions, i consider myself lucky if he even stays "hi" to me. i wish now more than ever that i had kept my virginity, and i deeply regret hurting and disappointing my father the way i did...
