What's a life regret you have?

[Kale]

What is a regret in life you have? I wish I never became sedentary when I was fired from my 1st job. I wish I'd taken better care of my teeth. I wish I'd have tried harder 'getting healthy' when younger. I also sometimes regret dropping my writing and journaling hobby.

Also please do avoid 'I regret nothing' replies! I'd love to see what you truly regret.

I regret being chronically online for the past 10+ years instead of enjoying my life.

I regret my years of wasting so much time and thinking about what other people thought about me. I was so self-conscious when I was younger, to the point I had a great deal of anxiety to speak out. I still care about what people think about me to an extent, but not about stupid things that are beyond my control.

I feel like I am chronically online, but can get off the Internet and enjoy life when need be.

Yep, this is a big one so many regret!

I regret staying in a toxic marriage for 11 years and not getting the balls to divorce her sooner.

So sorry to hear you went through that. Hope it's gotten better for you. I do recall hearing about something on another forum.

I wish I wasn't so bashful. When I was very little, my grandmother took me to the tv studio to be on tv, but I was too shy to leave my mother's side and I regret that even now.

I used to be bashful too, but got over it with help from my special ed teachers and other supports.

One of my biggest regrets in life would be getting with someone pretty quickly and falling pregnant not too long after. I don't regret the kids I had but I regret the situation I was in during that time which was a mentally abusive situation.

Happy to say now though that I am in a loving relationship and a lot happier

I may have a regret of succumbing to video games too easily like they're a job.

When I was young I was happy to just play video games all day everyday. As I got older I just lost interest in them and barely game as much.

If I start playing something fun Ill keep playing. But it seems I get more bored sooner than I did when I was younger.

I regret not pursuing my dreams instead of obeying my parents. I regret not standing up to them in general.

Unfortunately, this is the life of most introverted persons that I know. They simply can't help it because of their kind of personality which in the end, most of them regret living that way.

My own life regret was investing heavily on ponzi schemes which nearly wrecked my life financially.

Getting married to a woman I knew would break my heart in the end. lol I should have seen the signs before we got married that she was cheating but I was in love and looked past that lol

I try not to regret much since I can't change my past. Instead, I like to make new, more happier memories.
