Answer 1

i know this is odd but for every mistake ive done in my life its in a way made me learn more and made me a mentally and physically stronger person. If it wasn't for me being a fat child id never be a great runner today. If i didn't crash my car 2 years ago i wouldn't be a great driver today. Since i was rejected from my top college choice (because of grades ) in the past i wouldn't have worked even harder to land my self a dream job. If only i wasnt dumped by the most beautiful girl i wouldnt of found someone i truely loved. The only mistake that i think i shouldve redone is convinceing myself that theres no such thing as mistakes. Mistake as you might call it makes the person and forms the person, so get all your mistakes done early and live the rest of you life.

Answer 2

If I could go back and change one mistake in my life it would be staying in high school and going directly to college and getting at least a 4 year degree. I'm 36 now and I realize now how much life I had ahead of me when I was in high school. I thought I knew it all and I thought I was all grown up. I sometimes think about how different my life may have turned out, but then sometimes I'm glad that I did make those decisions in the past because I may have never met my wife who has given me 2 beautiful sons. I guess it was all in Gods plan. Have a good day and remember everyday is a gift, that's why we call it the present.

Answer 3

We got engaged too soon. We knew it would be hard with me going away to college and having to deal with a long distance relationship, especially since this was the first really serious relationship for both of us. We lost our virginity to each other... I've never slept with anyone else, but he cheated on me a year ago. Since then, we've made amends and we're still planning to get married, but I think if we had taken a break when I moved away, things might have gone better. We might have ended up back together and still be getting married, or we might have met someone else, but either way, I feel like we would be more complete people. It makes me more than a little scared about getting married.

Answer 4

I knew they weren't that sharp when I met them. They were overworked too. They couldn't think outside of the box. Just trained to do everything by the rules and books, but rules are meant to be broken. Sometimes you can't trade in your humanity for the sake of so called professionalism. My father should not have died all alone under their care.

Answer 5

I would not change a thing. The mistakes I have made have taught me things about myself, and about life. Believe me, I have learned a LOT! Some of my mistakes were whoppers! (like living with a violent and alcoholic husband) But learning from them has helped me grow. They have made me who I am today, and made me a stronger person.

Answer 6

Never moved out of my parents house! I should have got a full-time job and gave them 1/2 of my paycheck. In the end I would have got a free house (inherited), and a LOT less bills, a LOT less challenges in life.

Answer 7

there was a day , when I was a rowdy teenager, that I made light of my mom's complaint about her 'bones hurting'... arthritis..... I said "No one can hurt that bad ALL THE TIME, Mom!".... oh, how I wish I could take those words back.... but now, I know.... it does hurt, that bad, all the time.....

Answer 8

I would set up rules before moving in with roommates. It is really hard to set up rules after 3 years... maybe i would never even move in with roommates... who knows!

Answer 9

Suicide, would have never done it knowing what I know now.
