A couple of months ago a friend of mine got drunk and shit on himself, I was the only other person there and I promised him that I wouldn't tell anyone....I really regret that because it makes a funny story.

That I didn't have more children. I've always loved kids and doing the kid things. If I'd had more I could even have started a softball team.

Many. I regret having gotten married; however, I regret more the things I didn't do than the things I did.

My biggest regret is NOT going to college when I graduated high school. My second regret is not joining the army or marines after high school. I could have done both but I had little to no guidance and I got married in high school, so I was lost for a while wondering what to do with my life! Man, was I dumb...*slaps forehead and runs away*

All 5 things I regret are that I did not tell on them. I say 5 because that is all I was allowed. I would say it a million times.
The things I am most joyous of or decisons I have made are the times I witnessed for Jesus's sake, having my 3 beautiful daughters, being able to help raise my sisters oldest son, and for the ability to finally accept that I am not perfect and should never expect that of myself.
Not sure if that is exactly what you are looking for but that is what stands in my mind. Thank you for such a great question.
by Babycakes on December 31st, 2010
Regrets--I never learned how to drive. Would have loved to been a nurse.
Proudest--Finally standing up for myself.
by unknown on January 2nd, 2008
Regrets? I've had a few. But then again, too few to mention.
by Phrenia on February 18th, 2007
No. Everything I've done and said has made me what I am today.
by EL1 2 on December 22nd, 2006
That I didn't start trying in school until last year. My freshman and sophomore grades might jeopardize my chances of getting into my first choice college.
by Damiana on December 22nd, 2006
Staying in an abusive marriage too long. And not talking to my father for two years because almost a year after we starting talking again he got sick and died.
by ShellyNu on December 22nd, 2006
Falling for someone that I really shouldn't have fallen for. And not being able to let go of the hurt when it arises.
by WhyamIhere on December 8th, 2006
Oh ok regrets. No not me, well I got married at 18 I think that was too young but it turned out ok in the long run. I do wish I had had my 20's to myself to learn and experience life on my own, But I am happy with my Mate.
by biketroy on November 28th, 2006
Not telling a girlfriend that I Loved her,
and Not slugging a guy in High School.
And maybe a hundred more.
I don't think you've really lived unless you have a few regrets.
Go big or Go home!

I could share the ones where I didn't break the law, but they're the boring ones.
by cloudman on February 17th, 2011
Simple. I don't mind admitting that I regret divorce after 15 years with the lady - mainly because of what divorce does to children. Though I realize in retrospect that it was for the best, and I have a good relationship with the children and their kids, and I'm very happily married now (for 32 years) I'm so terribly sorry to have put those two daughters through that. I have two more lovely children in my second marriage and when I see all four of them together, along with the grandkids (like the day after Christmas, 2010) I realize that it seems to have been meant to be. I can't imagine a world without any one of them. In fact, to be completely honest I slapped myself on the back a few times for being so productive! LOL

Life is a tree. On one branch the ego laughs and cries tasting the sweet and bitter fruits of life while, on another branch, the soul looks on with detachment.
Life cannot know regret. Only the ego knows of regret.
by AnnieB on December 31st, 2010
My biggest regret is not staying in school....
I have 4 children, they would count as my proudest moments.

by Gina on March 23rd, 2008
Yes, there are several things that I regret, but I try not to dwell on them too much. There's nothing I can do about it now : )
by REDNECK BIKER on February 11th, 2008
Yes, and the ssad thing is I don't learn from my mistakes.

Nope. That's not sounding arrogant, I just call everything 'learning experiences'.

Losing my virginity at 14.
by thekingcobra63 on October 7th, 2007
I answered a similar question like this a while ago. My biggest regret in my life, even though I am proud of my service in the Army, is that I never became a US Marine. I should have been a Marine.

Tons, But I don't dwell on them, I can't change a thing so I move on and learn from my mistakes. That's all we can/should do.

Not taking more notice of symptoms that doctors should have noticed therebye giving a person i loved more time on earth. I should have insisted on further tests
by romelang1 on January 24th, 2007
Lots of things. Life is all about making choices and I've made some pretty bad ones. But I can't change it so I have to live with it and try to do better in future.
by Anonymous on January 11th, 2007
Some time wasted trying to control things and people and events, instead of going with the flow and working things out in a more natural and contrived way.
by Sarita1 Goes Bollywood on January 3rd, 2007
Not telling my dad how much I loved him, more times than I did and not hugging him more.
