What do you wish would have been different in your life?

Question

Was it within your control or not?

Answer 1

yeah the things were in control and i let it slip thru my fingers were pretty much things i regret in my life. Love, friendships, school. all that stuff.

Answer 2

I wish I had been taught about: 1. Credit management and financial responsibility (rather than having to learn the hard way), and 2. What boundaries have to be in place in a relationship

Answer 3

No I can't control what happened b4 I was born or a toddler. My mom married an alcoholic trailer trash loser from Arkansas with no HS diploma & she came from a rich family in Alaska. She could have done so much better . Thanks to him& her I had NO support system growing up. My dad was always drunk or at work OR unconscious. Now he's dead from his own stupidty.

My mom had to bust her BUTT to pay to support me b/c he WOULDN'T not couldn't.

I am scared of men b/c I am afraid they're all out to hurt me
I had NO control over this situation @ all except the satisfaction of seeing my father's corpse & still I hate him.

Answer 4

Change one thing, change the now. I would hesitantly pick anything to do differently.

But I might say my education. I'd have pursued something different, and earlier (I went back to school). I didn't realize all life's possibilities until rather late in the game.

Answer 5

I wish that I went to college right after HS.. instead I got pregnant and cant go to College for another 4 or 5 yrs....

Answer 6

"if wishes were horses, beggars would ride" or if you prefer

Answer 7
