"I've had a few..." Ever had any regrets? Mine are: - Somebody offering me a ticket to see Oasis at the Sheffield Octagon when Definitely Maybe had just been released and I said I didn't want to go because I wanted to clubbing - Not staying in touch with some of my old University friends and not knowing where they are and what they're doing now.

I don't believe in regrets. There's stuff I know I should/shouldn't have done, but I don't regret it.

- Not staying in touch with some of my old University friends and not knowing where they are and what they're doing now. Facebook can sort that for you. Unless you are massively privacy-conscious, or they are. I've got back in touch with a number of people I thought I'd lost As for me... *meh* I regret a variety of things mildly, but I doubt I'd do anything much different if I had another chance. Unrepentant!

None at all. Lifes too short to mope or be maudlin on what might have been.

I don't believe people when they say they don't have any regrets. I used to say it but when you can imagine that your life could be so different if only you'd changed something, that preys on my mind more as I get older and hopefully a bit wiser.

I don't WANT to regret it, but it's still there gnawing on the back of my mind. It's just the way my mind works. What's done is done, and can't be changed. Whatever happened in the past, however bad, made me what I am now - if I could change anything, is there any guarantee it'd make me any better now? If I held regrets, I'd be a very sad, very bitter person. Instead, I prefer to just walk on - no regrets, no doubts, no looking back on what might have been. My mind works in an odd mix of cold logic and deep thought, most of the time

As I said in my reply to Smurf, I acknowledge things could be different, but that doesn't guarantee they'd be better. As it is, I'm quite content with my lot - life's not perfect, but I know how good I've got it - so why would I wish to change it?

It's funny H, I regret less as time goes on, as if I regret anything it's wasting too much time regretting things in the past! ;D What would you change about your trajectory and/or history then? I've come to realise my glorious education has done little for me and will probably continue to, perhaps I should have concentrated more on *cough* other matters when I was younger...

What would I change? I'd have pursued the career I actually wanted. I wouldn't have settled down so young. I wouldn't have fallen in love to be hurt You?

Should probably have made more effort to stay fit over these last few years - but I can still reverse that. I suppose more romantic interludes would have been welcome, but I don't see what I could have done differently. As for your points, I don't know about the career thing, but you must have felt it wasn't too young to settle down at the time. Plus you couldn't have known you would be hurt, it's always a risk you take when you let yourself love. We all know that. I hope you don't give up on love forever though, would be a shame for you apart from anything else.

I suppose if anything I regret a certain incident which eroded my moralistic standpoint, for a few reasons. Then again I sometimes regret having the morals in the first place, people I know who dispense with them seem to have more fun... Oh - and not picking up the phone to my grand-dad the night before he died (suddenly) - I'll always regret that, would have loved to have had one last chat. Wahey everyone's logged out?! Didn't mean to bring folks down

I live a life with no regrets nor fear of death. But if i had to have one it would be the stunning brunette i went to school with,year younger than me. Saw her a few years after leaving out on the town. Her brother told me to go talk to her as she never shut up about me. Now she was stunning in every sense but me being me thought she was way outta my league. I arranged to meet her but didn't think she would show so didn't rush. Well she did show and i was just too late to catch her. Her brother later told me their folks were away and he was stopping out at his G/Fs so we had the house to ourselves. She met another bloke soon after and never forgave me for being late. Chance lost.

if you didn't have regrets you'd not be human... you'd been a watford fan None at all. Lifes too short to mope or be maudlin on what might have been.

I am not sure that I regret anything, I feel guilty sometimes about the things that I have said and done, I guess though that when you look back at the time it seemed like the best thing at the time and you wished you'd known then what you know now!!!
