I wonder sometimes what my life would be like had I done things differently. The truth is everything happens for a reason. Everything I have been through has made me the person I am. I like that person. I have learned from my mistakes and make current decisions because of them.
No I wouldn't . . .

I would go back in time if I only could. What I would change is the way that my two sons were treated by their dad. He was a man who did not know how to set an example for them and the three of us were abused many times. I will always regret alot of things in that life. Thank God all of those terrible years are finally over.

Yes. I would have told my (now wife) at that time girlfriend, that I'm moving to California to start a new life (after High School). I was only 18 at the time and had a wonderful opportunity to move with my Mom and Step Dad there. I'm from Chicago. The only reason I stayed was because of my girlfriend (which she is now my wife of 12 yrs) and we have two kids. Of course its hard to think about life without my kids, as I love them dearly, but I got married too young (22) and never got a chance to "experience life" as a single man (no committments) like most guys/gals get to after high school -- by going away to college, so if I could do it all over, I would have done this for myself and would not let anyone pursuade me.

I have a lot of past that I would like to change. I know that those good and bad decisions made me who I am and lead me to where I am in life. So, I wouldn't change a thing. I would be too afraid that changing one decision would throw the timeline of my life out of whack and that I would not have met my husband or had my kids.

YES! I would have never secretly and legally married my first boyfriend, and I would have never hidden my divorce from my parents. It took a lot out of me and I never recovered from the damage I did to myself and my parents hiding such an important thing about my life to the ones who mostly loved me. I will regret it all my life. I must learn to listen to myself when I know something is going terribly wrong.

I don't know that I would change anything, who says that changing something in our past would make the present better? I think because of the past, it has made me into who I am today and I am satisfied with that.

if I could go back in time and change one thing I would have never started smoking

I am just crazy enough that I would, but I would probably screw it up and really make a mess of things. I would go back and wait for my first love and not get married because I was too impatient.

Yes, I would not get married just because my girlfriend (now wife) was wonderful with her tongue and put lots of pressure on me. Marriage is about much more than that, but I found out only too late.

I wish I would've let him go when we first broke up. Then by the time we would've gotten back together I would have more dignity. :\
Too much drama happened by me sticking around. Some of which I wish never happened.
