I wish i was more outgoing, im starting to be now, but i wish i was more in the past... i feel like i missed out on a lot because im always in my own world. But at the same time, i like being in my own world lol. Honestly I think my biggest regret so far is that fact that i use to cut myself when i was really depressed last year and now i have to live with the way it looks, but i only have a few scars and they are fading. I'll get over it.

Although I've done or haven't done a lot of things that I'm not happy about, I don't think I'd go as far to say there's anything in my life I actually *regret*. Regret suggests to me the desire to go back and change things. I think that I am the sum total of everything I've ever done and all of my experiences; if I were to change any one of those experiences, I'd be a different person now. Would I like that person better? I can't necessarily say so; changing one thing in my past might possibly change everything and actually make things worse now. So, I don't really regret any of my past actions.

Not traveling more when I was young and had no major responsibilities. I gave up a 2 mo. trip around Europe to stay home with a boyfriend who I am not even with anymore (this was 25 years ago). I regret forfeiting the memories and pictures from 2 mo. in Europe because I don't even remember how I spent those 2 mo. doing my daily routine.
Travel. See as much of the world as you can.

i am fortunate enough to say none yet but im 28 years old maybe a few years from now things will be different. (hopefully not) i think everything happens for a reason, and we shouldn't regret anything, we rather should learn from our experiences, mistakes, etc... And how sad for the person that answered that he/she regrets being kind to people and that now he/she is a cold hearted person. All i can tell you is that being cold hearted you are letting those people win, and becoming one of them. Please go back to be the kind person you were the people who really deserve you and value you will appreciate it.

I have no regrets.
Sure there are things in my past that I wish I could have done differently (or not at all), but I wouldn't change them. Everything I have gone through has made me who I am today. Living with regrets is absolutely no way to live life. Why spend time dwelling on things that you won't be able to change?
Live. Don't dwell.

Being kind to people!
Before this I used to be kind to everyone, but they pay back by stabbing my back. So DEEP 'till I couldn't breath. And now, I'm totally a cold-heart person. Sometimes you need to understand it's not the person who wants to be like that. It's the environment changes that. That's the fact!

My biggest regret is that I spent so much time trying to please everyone else, and neglected myself.
