>dating my ex
>not talking to my crush last spring semester
>getting into paypal debt to be effay
>not being smart about school financially
>spending 3 years trying to get a bio degree
>going to a private college freshman year
>not making more friends

hmmm that's about it. live and learn

I wish I took a gap year to work in something like retail and really think about what I wanted to do with my life before committing to college.

When I look a back at a life of fuckups, I realise I don't believe in free will and could not have acted in any other way than I did. That makes regret a moot concept.

Telling my best friend that I’m in love with him. It’s not like I even thought anything would come of it but I felt like I couldn’t keep it in anymore.

Not asking for her number. She was head over heels. I hope that the fire doesn't die out until I see her again. But even if it doesn't work out now i know, thanks to her, that i really am attractive

Whad was his response?

Considering I've done some heinous shit in my life and actually made state news for it before, that should tell you how I feel about ponyfags now.

>Listening to the "you will find someone eventually retards"
>Wasting time trying to make myself happy
>Learning about technology instead of blindly using it like the rest of humanity.
>starting to think that it is fine to plaster my opinion online just because it is not attached to my name.

Leaving my mother on her deathbed to go drinking because I, "just couldn't handle it."

The shame.

He said nothing. He obviously doesn’t even like me. Later he let me know, in so many words, that I’m foolish to feel that way because of the circumstances. I didn’t mean for it to happen. I still feel the same way so telling him was pointless.

I'm pretty sure that free will doesn't exist at all either. Makes for a pretty unhealthy way to live life once I get stuck in a depressed streak, but I don't see any other way to view life if you're not religious.

Not actually learning how to live.

One thinks everything results from the prior state in the universe and there is no probability. But quantum physics taught us, that there is randomness in the universe and in such not everything is programmed to happen from birth on and you have a free will. Dont let your limited perception of yourself fool you into thinking it doesnt matter what you do. It might matter and that is called hope and not faith.

>that is called hope and not faith
>Implying there's a difference

As far as I'm concerned, any randomness in the universe is just some non-randomness that we don't yet fully understand.
I don't think nothing I do matters, just that anything that happens couldn't have gone any other way.

>any randomness in the universe is just some non-randomness that we don't yet fully understand.
Imagine being this stupid.

Ever having listened to other people.

>there is randomness
That's not will.

Choosing a worthless liberal arts major right out of high school (international studies). I'll be 29 years old next month with $20,000 in student loan debt and no legitimate career aspirations

Nothing, because without fucking up I would have no wisdom

taking some time out after getting made redundant and then going straight into first job offered
i did the job brilliantly, updated everything, did full procedure and process documents, met all targets but i just didnt like it so i handed in my notice, stuck around few months till replacement was found and trained them up and wished them well and left
did nothing for most of 2018, trying to get back into work now and all im asked is you've been out of work for a while why is that? what happened at your previous job? what have you done with yourself?
>why, ive done fuck all for 9 months but seriously i am a dedicated, hard working potential employee, please hire me
what was i thinking?
no one is just given a job and now im panicking because saying i renovated my house will get exposed as a lie and im going to unemployable and end up homeless as my cash runs out
why did i quit?
why didnt i start looking immediately?
why didnt i get another job then quit?
why did i pick that job at all in the first place?
why you idiot?
why?

Buying this house, not being a better brother, son and husband, the time i have wasted doing stupid nonproductive shit.

Shutting in
Trying to off myself even though it got positive result in the end

>not my fault lol destiny or god (or whatever belief I hold) made me this way so I shouldn't try to fix it lmao

Ever being Religious

I regret not dumping my friends earlier. Fucking losers will drag you down in life.

Not applying for my country's international forces.
I'm a dumb fucking meathead, I don't belong in a functioning society.
I got good recommendations and high marks from my officer course, but I hesitated due to my parents worrying themselves sick over me leaving.
I wish I had taken that path, maybe it's not too late.

here it comes
feelings of shame, despair, let family down, let friends down, let myself down, its all gone wrong and its knowing its all me
my decisions
my actions
crap

I remained in a relationship I hated for 3 years and in fear of hurting that girl I most likely said goodbye to the love of my life.
You reap what you sow, always.

Live your life to make her proud user

Have an online emotional affair, I regret it so much...

Pretty much this.
My mistakes are cyclical, and every time I repeat them I remember my failings and how I once said that I would change. I hate that I know myself as well as I do.

Being alive.

Because you got caught and hurt two amazing women instead of just one. Suffer and learn.

I told to my crush in the office that I have feelings for her. We have this thing, like a platonic relationship. On december she kiss me while she was drunk and told me shits about how she feels about me. I took the bait. Since then, I was having this behavior toward her, like I'm in love. She manipulate me a lot. I'm not a kid, but I was enough stupid to take the bait again. I told her how I feel about her, and she told that she feel sorry for me, that we have to cut this platonic relationship and that she didn't remember that she kissed me (sorry user for that, in case it was true), and yeah, that she hope all this is OK for me. I know she won't keep her big mouth shut, and that half office know about how dumb I was. I feel so embarrassed right now.

Met a girl. Nice, hot, etc. social autism on my part, never got her number. She held her phone up as I drove off. By now I don’t even fucking remember what she looked like. Fuck dude it hurts

Getting drunk and confessing my feelings to the girl I was dating's best friend when she left with some guy.

She said she didn't want to date me and still texts me and stalks me for some reason and it makes me want to die

Tie between:

Not telling a girl I loved and dated for 3 years that I would have loved to be a father for the child we made together. I respected her choice without voicing my feelings and paid for her to abort it, we broke up months later.

Or rebounding on a girl that said the three magic words and then gave me HIV and HPV, ruining any chances of ever having a kid of my own.

Wow, that's fuck up

That's not much of a regret, you had to get it off your chest. If you hadn't have done it - the regret probably would have been worse.

You learn and grow a lot from mistakes like these.

I touched my uncle's penis

I don't have a whole lot of regrets, I don't see the point but I do regret doing my degree. Feel like I was way too immature for university

Sounds like you missed the message of the show you contributed to

Dude, he's saying that even a randomness could be simply an yet unexplored, not yet understood non randomness. These "random" events might not be random.

I'm sorry, but do you happen to know absolutely everything? Oh you don't? Because you'd have to to pompously reject a theory, based on definitively understanding the nature of the universe.

It's not a tie when they work so harmoniously together.

But desu it sounds like the second scenario made the 1st scenario a regret when it didn't necessarily have to be.

I agree user. It did amplify my regret for not voicing that fact though because it may have prevented the second scenario entirely. But we didnt work, kids may have made things even more complicated. I've learned to love again and become a stronger person so theres that at least. Still a tough way for things to have gone I guess.

I took LSD and I ended up becoming a sex offender, I sexually assaulted a women thinking it was a girl I had a crush on, the girl I had a crush on was my best friend's gf I said her name to the women

Same here, I probably could have done a lot of things differently like talk to girls more who liked me (especially after one asked me why I never talk to girls and that they would talk to me) and do more on the date with the hottest girl I met, but I was anxious, so not much to do at that time.
The environment I grew up in made me feel like people hated me when it was mostly all in my head, now that I think back.

I had her, the view of the city, and a large truck screaming down the freeway as we made our way through the night.

Nothing else mattered - we were here, and she sat beside me, absorbed in her cell-phone, but occasionally DJing her chinsey pop-tunes from a youth that was barely behind her, her playful dancing making me want to bite the steering wheel straight through.

>having regrets

>not sealing the deal and fucking this girl I dated for a few months. She dropped me a week after we went out for my birthday
>not asking out my coworker
>catching feelings for said coworker
>fucking up university. I don't know if I'll ever return to get my bachelor's

Not being able to see for many years that I shouldn't blame myself for the abuse that happened to me.

I don't really regret anything. Sure, I've done a lot of stupid, bad shit, but I learned from them, grew as a person.

Wasting so much time fapping to porn.

Not getting fit earlier

Not killing myself when I graduated high school, like I'd been planning to do for six years.
It's been almost seven years since I graduated, and now I feel too invested in life to kill myself, but I'm still miserable.

>emotional affair
lmao that user IS a woman you idiot

Nothing I mustn't fall into that trap because it would be a very deep one.

Not being confident enough to pursue more women in high school when I actually saw them on a regular basis

Spot on user... I got into computer science because of money only to find out it sucks... Wish i went for something like civil engineering

Chances I didn't take

why does it suck? in civil engineering you would have to deal with airheads and be in noisy dirty environments

>so I shouldn't try to fix it
I said nothing of the sort.

Science programs are designed to educate you into a scientist. Any science program sucks if you don't intend take a doctor's degree and then go on to doing research and teaching.

>travelling
>starting my own business venture
>took some time for professional development
>short contracting positions, freelancing etc

Employers dont care as much as you think they do. I've been in your position too , friend and right now I'm writing this from my new job. Which I hate but that's a tale for another time

>desperately in love with guy that traveled a lot
>I know he loved me but my insecurity got to me
>guy at work confessed he loved me
>start hanging with him at his apartment
>mostly I cry to him, missing my bf
>he shows me self inflicted cigarette burns
>proof of his pain he cannot have me
>let him burn me to know how it feels
>have sex and feel horrible and burns fester
>not expecting it bf walks in my work and sees coworker hugging me from behind
>give chase but bf out the door
>call and text its not what it seems
>finally find him after frantic search
>I cry and explain and he seems to accept
>then he sees the cigarette burns
>knows I'm a liar and cheat and physically put me out of his home
>bf suddenly moves and leaves no address
>never saw him again

Programming overall is fine but learning to program and getting good is pure torture... Everytime i have a question all i get is
1. rl coworkers that when you ask them they go full superiority complex and answer"oh you don't know something as basic as xyz" then they pull out their macbooks and explain in the worst way possible.
2. Either some thread on the internet written by some pajeet in broken english or the full nerd type that bombards the answer with useless information, just to show how smart he is, and acronyms like everyone in this industry is an expert at everything.
3.some guy that actually gives a straight answer and a step by step way on how to solve it but those guys are so fucking rare you'd have a better chance winning the lottery.
Atleast with civil engineering you learn what you need to know and there's no need to keep on learning new stuff over the years just to keep up with the industry

not sticking with and marrying my HS sweetheart

Boy you were a royal cunt

This makes no sense. If you life has been improving too the point of not wanting to commit suicide, surely it can improve to not regretting it?

Staying in an abusive relationship with an ugly fat guy when i was in high school, allowing myself to be brainwashed and treated like a fetish object.

It was a slow painful decent. I should have stopped myself and could have but in my sorrow slid. I remember the look of horror on my bf's face when he saw the burns. I lied, saying they were from work but they were clearly 3 cigarette burns in a row near my heart, the scars still show.

>the scars still show

Good. And he seems to have done proper form and dumped your ass on the spot. Maybe you can salvage a resemblance of a decent person out of it, doubtful though..

Well, I haven't been in any relationship after I stopped seeing my coworker last year. You can't really call that a relationship though, I didn't know what to do when my bf moved and the coworker guy was persistent and obsessive. I was lost and kept thinking my bf would call or or show up to see how I was but he probably got another gf pretty quick.

You are still obsessed with you, and just disregard your x bf as "oh he probably got a gf already".

You betrayed him on so many levels, get over yourself. Become less self obsessed, so maybe just maybe when you meet somebody right you would treat them fucking proper and not betray their trust in you..

I know I mess up but since my bf moved so quick after we broke up its possible he already was seeing another girl. I used to think this a lot when he was gone even though he called me daily.

>called me daily
>still cheated on him
>he might have been talking to another girl

The cope on you..

Cant you see you are still doing it? You are trying to make your actions go away by blaming other parties. He moved so quick because you fucking CHEATED on him. This doesnt show he had a side chick, this shows he had principles. Much higher than yours too.

I will say this for the 3rd time, accept responsibility for your actions so you might improve yourself. It was you who cheated, it was you who went after the pbsessive coworker, it was you who slept with him, it was you had insecurities, it was you..

I can't make my inaction go away. I stopped nothing, not even as the coworker put the cigarette to my breast and then let him have sex with me through the pain. I know that and have a permanent reminder.

>it can
doesn't mean it will

It wasnt inaction though which made you do those things. Maybe it allowed you to let it happen but you put yourself in that situation.

Inaction is me watching my life crumble day by day, with me seeing it happen and not stopping it because i am such a piece of shit and a fucking coward. Going on day by day, not doing anything really, slowly burning away a wonderful oppurtunity for a life. Ihave squandered every thing and am now just shambling.

You had someone who loved and cared for you, you were worth it, just hold on to that to better yourself so in the future you might make it worthwhile. Insteadof me just withering away..

Not finishing Mawaru Penguindrum. I really should finish that show.

Being fat and ugly in high school. For whatever reason, nobody ever told me I was fat and ugly, so fixing it never came to mind. I actually had a chance because girls did talk to me, but I lacked the self confidence to do anything about it.

Guys can have emotional affairs too idiot

I regret chasing guys ever, any time I do they expect me to keep it up

>fucking up university. I don't know if I'll ever return to get my bachelor's

Do it bro, get your degree. I end college on 2007 but I never get my degree until last year, I had a lot serious troubles all those years. I thought, I will never have my degree. My wife and my family encourage me to do it, and I did. Seems surreal for me, I am lawyer and I work for a bank. Funny thing, is that made a huge mistake a week later that brings me depression because the guilt. But yeah, encourage my brother, do it.

Wow, how you allowed someone to burn you with cigarettes in that area, or any area?

This

Ever caring .

>people being this blind to someone whose story, given more detail, sounds like they were raped and then their boyfriend called it cheating

That does make me feel better, user.
I have my associates, and was set to return last fall, but they fucked up my paperwork and I never got readmitted. So losing another year hurt my esteem

it's always the things i didn't do

never the stuff i tried and failed

What were the three magic words?
What is it like living with HIV?

Dude I'm 36, 36 bro. At my graduation act I felt a little bit sad because I believed I lost a lot of time, but hey at the end of the day I did it, I fucking did it. If you really want it, just do it please. When you make it, post something here I will be glad for you user.

Losing weight
It forbade me from enjoying food I like
It turned me into somebody with a wide bone structure that I was not aware of, that I hate
It made me grow more body and facial hair than ever
It didn't fix my complete lack of interests and hobbies
And even made my family and some other people get angry at me as they don't understand why I feel bad after losing all the weight

I took advantage of somebody I loved while she was sleeping and we were drunk. Twice, and I'm not sure myself if it was rape or not.
>I'm not sure how drunk I really was or if we agreed that I must've been really drunk too because that was convenient
>she explicitly told me that she didn't feel raped but that if it had been sonebody else it would have been rape
>I'm pretty sure on some level I knew what I was doing and just went ahead with it anyway
>I'm not sure how asleep she was or how conscious she was at any point throughout it
>I remember a blur with snapshots
>I was violent about it and manhandled her pretty hard
>she first struggled and later cooperated and encouraged me and gave me instructions, so there was at least a point where it was forcible and then forgiven
>I did actually drag her and choke her at one point
>she kissed me afterward and told me not to feel bad about it
>but to be careful about doing that to other girls because they'll get you in trouble
There are dudes in cages who are less animal than that. Like, if she had been of the mind to take it to the cops or admin, I could've officially been a rapist.
Nicest girl I've ever known and easily one of the closest and most dear friends I've ever had. I love her, as fucked up as that is. I used to mutter her name in my sleep. We spent holidays and had dinner together. We had sleepovers weekly and would just get rekt and binge watch stuff and talk. She forgave me the time I accidentally got her car stuck. We'd go shopping and cook dinner together. I loved riding in her passenger seat and just ranting at each other or listening to her dumb music she eventually got me to like. She always thought of me and got me stuff. She fed me. She gave me a place to store my stuff. We decorated her Christmas tree together. We had Thanksgiving together.
I honestly feel like I'm a rapist who got away with it because the person he raped loved him enough to lie.

I had a girlfriend that was actually a okay if I just started trying fuck in her sleep but I'm a sex addict and so was she and the only reason I'd do it is because she told me shes fine if I did
Tried it with one years later and we didnt break up over that but had a serious fight lol.

(CONT)
I am mindfucked and haunted at night by this. It has led me to question whether I am a good person at all. Sometimes I wonder if the only thing separating my reputation from ruin and me from jail is her not wanting me punished.
What fucks with my head is that this didn't end up with me in trouble. She stayed my friend. She still put up with my shit and cared about my well-being. She still hugged me just as warmly and said my name in the morning with the same smile. Her family still likes me. We continued to sleep together for a year and this isn't even what we fell out over.
