i regret not following my sister that day one day my sister came into my room and she was all sad and shit cuz our parents marriage is a shit show so she was sulking about dad and his other family and how he never pays attention to us the last thing she said before leaving my room was im gon na go kill myself so i said do not do that but i didnt follow her because i thought she was joking since she says that sometimes next day she doesnt come out of her room all day and its locked so we couldnt get in at this point im really scared so i go get her room key because we each had a key to each others rooms and i opened the door and shes laying there in her own blood with a knife in her neck its my fault shes dead because i didnt follow her to stop her when i had the chance and i regret it every day of my life | regret |

my biggest most idiotic mistake i have ever made so to start of as a kid and even my early teens i had been noting more than a perfect kid kind and polite healthy put others before myself and most important and the topic of today i looked after my teeth for about 1112 years i have neglected my oral hygiene i would only brush my teeth here and there i would say i brushed my teeth once a month or once every three months contrary to popular belief your teeth do not fall out the ironic thing is 1 my bottom row of teeth actually do not look too bad and 2 i have only got two teeth gone both molars and they do not look all damaged on their own like someone brushing their teeth you have to cause it ie eating hard foods or receiving physical damage focused on your mouth however the pain that is different on small occations i get pain out of the blue but surprisingly it is not all of the time that being said i am not saying stop brushing in fact out of all the brain dead stupid things i did in life this is the biggest regret despite this my boyfriend is so kind and loving still kissing me despite this keep brushing your teeth people you do not want this | regret |

i regret giving another chance this is a heartbreak story i guess i know it is not advised to give a second third or forth chances to someone who has repeatedly mistreated you but i do not know what happened to me i had just come back after living abroad for three years it had been 5 since i had talk or seen that person and i was fine but he contacted me and to be polite i met with him and he told me he would like to know me again and i fell for that because it was some i knew for a very long time and i felt a connection everything was going well for a year until he said he needed time and then he broke up with me again he was done with me i felt like garbage like an empty container who has served its purpose like a checklist for him it was ending things amicably instead of cheating like he had done in the past or telling lies but for me it just hurt like hell i had never felt such pain and now i just regret that chance i gave him i regret all the words i said to him i regret all the secrets i shared i regret everything because i feel so stupid i feel so naive so trustful i feel guilty i feel like not enough and he is living with the next girl yes i know it was just a bad decision i know this things happen and is normal i also know are more pressing issues in the world but if anyone who is reading this is thinking about giving second third or fourth chances this is the voice that advocates for a no honey | regret |

I feel like a bad person for not wanting to be friends with our in person friend anymore. ItâÃÂÃÂs not that sheâÃÂÃÂs a bad person. SheâÃÂÃÂs just not exactly a good friend. In some ways she is and in other ways sheâÃÂÃÂs inconsiderate and is always thinking of herself first no matter what. She doesnâÃÂÃÂt consider how things she says will make us feel. This friendship went from fulfilling to almost completely draining. She doesnâÃÂÃÂt fulfill most if any of our needs any more. Yet I still feel bad and like a bad person. -ðÃÂÃÂë | guilt |

slept with my brother my brother is two years older than me our dad died when i was ten and while we had been close already we got a lot closer after that being raised by a single mom who worked a lot of night shifts meant we had to fend for ourselves after school and would try to look out for each other basically we were very close siblings there was never anything too sexual until i was 15 i had always thought my brother was cute but figured it was just because he was family and while i did fantasize once or twice i told myself i would never really act on anything like that one evening i was laying on the couch while our mom was gone and woke up to him rubbing my leg i did not stop him and from then on there was occasional touching flirting and some showing off to one another when he was going to go off to college he asked if i could get him off i obliged and enjoyed myself it was the first time i had performed oral although i did feel guilty afterwards and have never told anyone while he was at college we still talked every day he would tell me about classes and about girls he was interested in which surprisingly made me jealous the summer before i was about to go off to college he stayed at home it had been awhile since we were living together and we had n t done anything sexual since he went to school i figured he was just sort of over it and actually thought that i was lucky that we had never had sex one day in july though while my mom is at work he comes into my room and without going into too much detail we have sex i told him i was kind of ashamed at what we did and while he says he is too we end up having sex yet again a few weeks later that was about a year ago we got kind of distant after it i just want to move on now and have a normal life i do not ever want to tell anyone that i know and i m terrified at the thought of him telling someone i know that it was wrong for a lot of reasons and i hate that i could n t control myself | regret |

regret most significant decisions i have made in the past 23 years i regret not getting into an extra program to get a 2nd degree while i got my first because i wanted to be done and get a masters abroad which would not have been possible due to covid anyway i regret choosing a bad thesis advisor which made me reject several opportunities because i felt i did not have time to do anything else because i felt so much pressure only for it to not be fruitful i just lost my goddamn time i regret not getting that job which could ve paid for that program i mentioned earlier after i finished my normal classes and was looking into the program again even if that one thesis was not fruitful at least i would have had money some professional development etc i regret that even if i had n t gotten that job at least i could ve gotten a master s here i also regret not working harder during my undergrad i really wanted to but for some reason couldn t x200b i just have not gotten anything of value in the last 3 years mostly because of my bad advisor but i should have taken all those decisions for me and not to hopefully please him | regret |

i was sometimes a huge asshole to my bulimic ex gf we were together for four years she told me she had an eating disorder 25 years into it things starting going sour between us about two years in she was neglectful a total bitch at times and she verbally abused everyone she knew behind their backs she did terrible things to me she withheld information i once called her to find out she was bombed out of her mind in the city drove to pick her up and she is with some other random guy from work and she proceeded to get in a car with him and drive off she acted out of her mind sometimes and i had no idea why that was before i knew about the eating disorder she blamed all of her erratic behaviors on it by the time she told me it was too late i was too resentful and bitter especially because she never made attempts to make things right we would have these amazingly complex fights and i would get so mixed up in them emotionally that i could n t stop myself from being a complete asshole to her we split in december last year and recently tried to reboot the relationship after she told me she could n t live without me i made a valid effort to change and be understanding and in my opinion i did i wonderful job but she ended up just manipulating me and never made an attempt to change things on her part she was also emotionally and verbally abusive i started to feel myself quickly losing tolerance and returning to that asshole state we broke things off again recently i know it is not all my fault she is out of her mind and i m pretty sure she is got some other undiagnosed personality disorders aside from her eating disorder it is tough to make things work with someone like that she is getting help and able to manage herself somewhat now but i feel like a fucking jerk for how i used to treat her while i never cheated or harmed her physically i turned into a real passive aggressive douche fin | regret |

i m only attracted to pre teens and it is making my life difficult i have tried to date adult women before but i can not do anything in bed because i can not get it up most co workers have started to think i m a homosexual and i can not explain it to them the first time this happened i was 17 when i tried to lose my virginity to a prostitute but it did not work i have no problems getting it up when thinking of preteens 12yo and under though and that is the problem specially when they wear eyepatches victorian dresses tiaras swimsuits long socks leotards or a combination of these my favorite time of the year is halloween i can not really explain this either it just works not with adult women though and it gets me going in no time in fact i have this little sanctuary where i keep my collection and just being close to it makes me feel safe i have been using drawn japanese porn hentai as an outlet ever since i was 15 but it is not very satisfying since the best artists only do consensual stories and most of my fantasies are a little dark i do not actually consider myself a threat to society because i do not possess the knowledge or skills required to do it and get away with it another thing that obsesses me is defloration when i look at an adult woman i can tell she is already been used and this casts a huge shadow over her and most of my fantasies involve virgins i have only started this job a couple months ago and most coworkers already think i m gay the same happened in highschool my family keeps asking me when i m going to get a girlfriend and get married but i can not and i just do not know what to do it is really frustrating a relative tried to hook me up with a friend of hers some time ago and when i had to turn her down she got very offended is my sexuality decided by my genes or my upbringing i wish there was i way i could just press a button and make my mind see adult women in the same way i see children i do not actually want to stop feeling what i feel towards little girls though i have been doing it for so long that i had no idea what i would do if i stopped i would become a completely different person i just want to fit in with my co workers and family better you can ask me anything | regret |
sticky while i was cleaning the kitchen and all of the sticky crap it struck me when you have a child the house you your kid and your clothes are always covered in something sticky its something that ive not hesrd too many people talk about but honestly its something that if you are a clean person you will find depressing it started from birth where you are leaking pure sugar water from your body for my son anyway he had severe reflux so i was covered in both vomit and sticky milk for 6 hellish months pair it with limited time for basic self care like bathing and brushing your teeth and changing clothes and its pure pure hell we couldnt drive down the street for 5 mins with our son without the whole carseat and him being covered in vomit this went on at least a year and slowly got better then when they chsnge to pureed food or whatever its the same thing you are covered in sticky crap even now my son is 25 yo and i cant feed him a meal wo at least 5 food sploches on my shirt the floor and table being covered with food its very very slowly getting better and maybe by 35 ill be able to look like a normal person instead of a dishelved homeless person like the other posts have said how easy or hard the experience is totally dependent on your kid which you have no control but i would say probably 30 precent of kids have some reflux its im sure also dependent on how involved your partner is one rare weekend we went out for lunch and left our son with gparents there was a woman at the restursnt with a 5 mo old baby girl and the babys dad she looked great was wearing a dress full makeup heels the baby was quite the whole time there i was looking like id been run over by a semi old tee shirt covered in food hair not even combed no makeup seeing her honestly made me so depressed and adking wth is wrong with me | regret |
i fell in love i fell in love with my mtf transgendered best friend from high school who was in a serious long distance relationship with another girl i knew about this girl and i did not care my friend had permission from her gf to be with me so we did our thing it was the most intense few months of my life it finally ended when her gf decided that she could n t handle that my friend had fallen in love with me i had also fallen in love with her after we split we stayed close friends and she eventually asked me if we wanted to begin a friendswithbenefits arrangement i agreed thinking that i could restrict it to just a physical connection even though somewhere deep down i knew i could n t we did this until graduation and then we spent the summer together and then she left for school in california while i headed to canada we have since drifted so far apart which is not for my lack of trying it is one of my biggest regrets only 4 people know about us her her now ex gf me and one friend that i have confided in my best friend also best friends with the girl i was with does not know and i do not want to tell her because i do not want her to hate or resent me for not telling her my current boyfriend also does not know and i do not know how to tell him it is hard to explain that i am not a lesbian i love him but not because he is a boy i m scared to tell him that i did not fall in love with my friend because of her gender i m scared that he will think badly about me because i have kept this from him we are always honest with each other and i have hinted at it trying to get him to ask me something to get it out of me i just can not say it it is so hard names not included because i do not know who could be reading this and putting two and two together | regret |
love our daughter but feel intense guilt for bringing her into this world my wife has always struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts she is sought help tried different medications and is stable but her feeling that she d rather not exist at all has never gone away life is literally a struggle for survival plain and simple we always said we did not want to bring a child into that but when we found out she was pregnant last year some part of us wanted to try we love our daughter and every day with her is amazing even when it is a struggle but when i look at her smiling and peaceful and happy i can not help but feel terrible knowing that this world though difficult for everyone to some degree is especially hard for women as ignorant people are fighting to make the world even harder for them we sit here knowing that we made a choice to bring her into this and we feel like such selfish assholes like no matter how hard we try it is not the gift of life we have given her but the burden of suffering just needed to get this off my chest | regret |

i regret not making friends sooner throughout my school years i would always stay in the computer room at lunch i would watch youtube and play games and never speak to anybody i was always bullied and insulted by a lot of people at school so maybe i went there to hide either way i never had friends but for some reason in my last year of school i went outside i was probably going insane from the stress of exams i saw some people hanging out by a tree people that i had briefly spoken to over the last few years in my classes i basically stood there awkwardly and they all said hi i stayed and then they started speaking to me then the next day i went back to the tree and hung out and spoke to people and actually enjoyed myself and for the rest of the year i kept coming back to that tree after 16 years of living i had friends one of them had given me a christmas card which nobody but my family had ever done before it was one of the best years of my life despite the stress of exams then the year ended and we all went our separate ways luckily they would invited me to a group chat before we left but my point is and i m sorry for rambling do not hide like i did these people were there hanging out by that tree the day i started high school i could have stayed and chatted but instead i walked past them every day on my way to the computer room do not make the same mistake i did there is somebody out there for you somebody that you can connect with on an emotional level you just need to look hard enough | regret |

regret being anxious and singleminded ever since i can remember even when i was a child i never cared much about others it is just who i was this made me socially awkward when i started kindergarten and so i got picked on a ton this continued every single year up through the 12th grade and i was too stupid to take the actions to stop it from happening i knew that people did not like to be around me but instead of changing myself to be more effective with others i latched on to quieter and shyer people because i knew they would not leave me i did not enjoy their company much but it felt safe this behavior intensified in high school when i realized that i could n t attract the friends i wanted and felt i had to settle for nerdier and more awkward friends to avoid being alone in college i made a huge effort to change myself but i did not quite succeed i tried very hard to be an outgoing and popular party girl but did not know the first thing about social skills instead of learning to be interesting and likeable i used insults to get attention i would find a target and make fun of them the same way people in high school used to do with me this got me short lived attention but eventually people noticed how rude i was and distanced themselves so college was a lonely experience too i graduated college and felt lonelier than ever i fell into a deep depression and decided to throw myself into my job i spent the next few years obsessed with work and tied it so closely to my identity that nothing else mattered as long as work was going well i was happy and if work was not going well i was devastated i then got the idea to apply for a top mba program thinking it would be a new chance to make friends and would further my career as well i killed myself for over a year trying to execute my plan perfectly and ended up getting into many great schools i accepted an offer to join and am starting this august but now with covid19 it is unclear if i will even meet any new people outside of virtual settings i just feel so defeated and wonder if i should just give up on having close friends as perhaps it is just not meant for me help would be appreciated | regret |
Why do I have to feel bad for wanting to help myself? Yes I'd rather be with my dad but right now that can't happen and I'd rather drive myself to the brink of death than live with you anymore. You just talk at me, 'vent' at me, nothing is to me...and you're the victim of all of this. You got what you wanted you cheated and broke a family to get what you wanted, but we are all supposed to feel sorry for you aren't we... | guilt |
i want an eating disorder i try so hard not to eat but i do not have the will power i am such an amazing person on the inside and it kills me that my looks dont match i mean i am cute but i had a child and lost my body i want my body back i want to feel sexy as sexy as my personality i can deep throat like no other so bulimia doesnt work for me i cant force myself not to eat because when i am alone it is all i think about i wont stick to a routine of working out because then i realize how out of shape i really am i know thats the only way to fix it but even if i could i dont even have the time i look at skinny girls all of the time i am talking to this amazing guy right now and we are a perfect match mind wise but he can do way better girls are constantly throwing themselves at him he doesnt take it he is a smart guy and isnt attracted to the sluts but i just cant fucking help when i look around and think fuck if i just looked like that i wouldnt be so damn worried all of the time i only weigh 110 but thats 7 more than i want to weigh it sounds so easy but i just dont have the will power to say no to food nor the stomach to eat enough of it to counteract with dieting pills i wish i could just be okay with being a shitty person and turn to drugs but would never do that to my kid this probably also has somewhat to do with the abusive relationship i had with her father that i dont talk about ever 1 and a half years of physical abuse but i found the things he said to me to be worse i would try my hardest to be pretty and he would never compliment me and when he did say something about my looks he would compare me to girls he didnt like and say i look nasty like them he called me fat multiple times nasty disgusting i just feel like if i had a hot body i would be so much happier with myself and wouldnt be freaking out about this new guy i always think hes just going to end it which would be fine but i cant deal with the on edge feeling i have so i feel like if i were comfortable in my skin i really wouldnt give a flying fuck to me the girls that are bone skinny are beautiful i would be happy at 103 pounds maybe someone can just tell me how to drop it and keep it off idfk i just need to lose that 7 fucking pounds | regret |
When I answered to my mother with rudeness. | guilt |
I am so sorry I have not spoken to you guys for three weeks!!! I have been struggling with exams and homework. Every lesson yesterday was an exam!
Today was alright. A girl in my class called Hannah did a form assembly. She started off talking about nuclear fusion then she said "just kidding" and started talking about compliments. She dis a social experiment where she asked people in other forms to talk about someone in our form without us knowing. She then displayed the comments one at a time on the screen and we had to guess who it was for. Someone actually gave me a compliment!!! I was so happy. ðÃÂÃÂÃÂ
In music we were working towards our assessment after half term on variations of FrÃÂére Jacque. We had an argument but it did get resolved and it's alright now. I will be singing and playing the ukulele, Esta will be playing the piano, Chloe will be playing the recorder, Tilly will play the xylophone and Holly will play the triangle.
Then we had art. My friend Gabby is in a wheelchair and due to her therapy sessions she is also missing a lot of school. Bearing in mind she is in year 8 and I am in year 9, I was quite shocked when she came into our classroom! I got to sit next to her while we were drawing our Christmas card designs for an annual completion we have at our school. I ðÃÂÃÂàit is going really well.
At break, I was desperately trying to revise for a physics test we had next period. However, I was sitting with my friends who decided to have a screaming completion ðÃÂÃÂÃÂ!!
I had the physics test and I think it went alright? I hate physics so it wouldn't really matter to me if I failed or not but this is a compulsory subject for GCSE so.....
That's a double period lesson so then I had lunch. I went to the hall and played Irish Snap with my friends Chloe, Ingrid, Helen and Isobel. I was SOOOO BAD!!! But I actually didn't lose so that's an achievement ðÃÂÃÂÃÂ!!!
Then it was Drama. We had our drama assessment where we were acting out an extract from the play "Stone Cold" which is all about homelessness. And I think it went REALLY WELL!!!! Drama is my best subject and I will definitely be taking it for GCSE. I am also using my drama skills to get into the Brit school next year so I have to practise hard to get in!
Then it was....Spanish. We had to redo our writing test we had in Wednesday because ONE person cheated. As I hadn't revised( because we were told there and then) I had to leave the class because I got so stressed. I revised so hard for the test on Wednesday and because it was all going to go to waste I was really upset. But I ended up not doing the test and when I came backs we were learning a song in Spanish to the song "DNA" by Little Mix. It was really fun!
Then after school, as we had now broken up for half term, me and my best friends Chloe ( who I have talked about a lot already!) and Evie went to the milkshake shop called Sblended. We hard huge milkshakes and then got the bus. I was the last to get off because I went to visit my Grandad in Plumstead.
When I got home I had fajitas with my parents, we messed around faith the Boomerang app and then went to bed. | guilt |

what do you do to get a break when no one will watch them i m past my wits end and literally floating through life an empty shell of a human being i m a single mom to almost 5 year old twins and they have both adhd and autism my son might also have odd but i m not positive they receive physical therapy occupational therapy aba therapy and they were going to public preschool until summer break started every single day i change my daughters poopy diapers every 1530 minutes because she has sensory issues with sitting on the potty so she holds her bowel movements in for weeks at a time she also smears her poop on anything within her reach so my house is constantly covered in feces despite being in intensive therapies she is regressed in communication and has reverted to screeching and wailing as a main form of communication i understand the challenges she faces and i do not get upset with her but the screeching and crying and yelling almost nonstop for 14 hours a day has made me want to eat a bullet on top of that both of my twins are extreme plus i have and destructive anything they can use to make a mess or destroy they do it in an instant there is absolutely no thought process behind this i wake up every single morning to a destroyed house because my son can hop any gate now and break through most child proofing locks he loves to actively defy me and look me in the eyes laugh and tell me no while running away he does receive discipline but it really has no effect on him he does not care about repercussions or spankings he is a sour patch kid though he will switch from that to sweet and loveable the next minute it is irritant anytime i hand them a cup of water or snack they take a sip or bite of food and pour the rest onto the floor because they love sensory play more than they like food i had a horrendous pregnancy with them and i was alone the entire time up until 6 months ago when i entered a new relationship this is not even the half of my daily struggles as i m also a mom with adhd and disabled from the military i will probably never financially recover from being forced to stay home because so many people refuse to watch them because of how difficult they are to handle and care for they require constant monitoring and if left alone they attack each other i feel like i will be stuck in this depressing groundhog s day life of a caregiver until my last breath and my children will use my corpse as a jungle gym like they do when i try to nap | regret |

guilt for rehoming pets hi i have been wanting to rehome my parakeets for past few weeks and this weekend i posted on craigslist i got response from a guy and he told me he can take them in i regret giving him the birds he told me he has 2 young kids i m worried his kids may play harsh with them they are delicate birds and that he wants to surprise them he told me he can be over in 15 minutes and when i asked if he can take them over the weekend he replied he wants them within an hour before his kids come home as he promised them a surprised i felt pressured and guilty and said okay i feel like i gave in due to guilt and pressure he picked them up and since last night i have been feeling guilty about giving away the birds to him guilty because i do not want them to be in a home that maybe scary and guilty that i did not talk to multiple rehoming options before giving them away an hour after he took them i had a few more people inquire about the parakeets one of them has two and wanted to have mine as friends for his birds i wish i had given it to him i texted him this morning requesting an update on the birds he has not replied i guess i wont ever see them again i want the birds to be happy hope they have a safe home and he takes care of them lesson do not rush things and stand your boundaries its okay to back out of things and trust your gut especially if you are rehoming through craigslist | regret |

i can not live with the guilt i did want to have kids but i wanted to have them 6 years ago when we first got married when i was younger the biggest reason i wanted to do this is because my husband and me have a large age gap well my husband kept pushing it off and finally i had a baby much later than i wanted before i had the baby i was so worried about my age that i talked to a obgyn to make sure it was okay he said that my age was very common in certain western countries not where i lived and we could have a baby we got pregnant much quicker than i was expecting and i was very excited i had a great pregnancy and good labor and delivery we did all the testing possible after my baby has been born i started doing to math that is when i realized that we had waited way too long by the time my baby is in high school my husband will be elderly by the time my child is my husband s age my husband will be dead we will miss out on all the wonderful things that are the return on investment like marriage grandkids all of that every time i m around my family i think about how i will never have that i constantly worry have panic attacks and hate myself for doing this to a child i m starting to give myself chest pains and i can not enjoy anything anymore i absolutely hate my husband for saying that our ages did not matter when they clearly do i hate myself for even marrying him i have thought about giving up my child for adoption then killing myself but my husband says that we can still be good parents we can not i can not i feel horrible for my son i also know what it feels like to be a mother and i love him so much i wish i did this years ago when i could just feel this feeling without the horrible guilt of being my age i think about going to school and being the eldest parent i think about how i could have been a young mom i think about the wasted opportunity to give my children a better life i have ruined everything i feel so guilty on top of all of it my son is showing signs of being autistic which is all my fault because i waited i want to die i am a terrible selfish person | regret |
i regret not making my own decisions looking back i feel like i spent so much time trying to make my parents happy and seek their approval on everything now that i m about to graduate with a degree i could care less about i realize how wrong that was it only goes to show how little my parents understand me especially when i do not even have the personality type for my major i guess the only caveat is that at least now i can control where i go within reason there is still the possibility by applying broadly i could end up on the opposite side of the us even though my friends are telling me that is crazy even though it is small in retrospect at least i have that choice | regret |
why i regretted to almost killing a good friend of mine so when i was in 6th grade i was a jerk i would roast other kids if i was bored and make horrible and sexist jokes to classmates when i felt like it i did not knew any better but this took place in art class 1st period at the time i went into the class and put my backpack on a chair so people would know the chair was occupied and then my friend lio came to my spot and put my backpack on the ground and put his backpack on my seat i was furious i hated when people did that so being the idiot i was i grabbed the teacher s scissors and put it next to his neck demanding my seat he did not looked scared in fact he looked calm as hell i told him to give up the seat he did not so i demanded him one more time and he got up and changed seats i felt victorious but he said he would have told and i could be sent to juvy i ignored him after that we became friends and talked to each other but a gallon of regret pours onto my face every day i feel ridiculous and horrible after that i should not have done that | regret |

being a parent being a parent is like having a tattoo on your face make sure you are 100 percent sure as this is for life you bring a kid into the world and is autistic well you are committed i get on really well with my children but even in good times the worry is always there especially when they are poorly you have to step up and step in over and over and over kid bullied at school well in you go to speak to the teacher like the cleaning of a house it never ends kid is poorly well enjoy sitting stressed in a e at 2am while the drunks fight around you while you are well aware that your shift starts in 4 hours at work and the boss well go nuclear if you are not in my ex has not paid a penny towards our son for 15 years even thou she works i always advise against being more people into this dystopian nightmare | regret |
regret of not starting something i had a project in mindwhich i could have excelled at if i started but i did not because i felt like i didnt deserve success when this came to my mind and i told my bestfriend about it she seemed upset i knew she was jealous and i just didnt wanted to do it anymore because i felt like if i did good she would hate me now my family treats me like shit i hate it i hate the fact that i was dependant on other people i am having so many health issues now especially with mental issues due to trauma caused by my family now im not independant at all i wish i had just pursued my happiness selfishly instead of thinking about others now i can never go back i hate where i am right now i hate it | regret |
These lyrics speak so much to me.
âÃÂÃÂIâÃÂÃÂm bigger then my body. IâÃÂÃÂm colder then this home. IâÃÂÃÂm meaner then my demons. iâÃÂÃÂm bigger then these bones. and all the kids cried out âÃÂÃÂplease stop your scaring meâÃÂài canâÃÂÃÂt help this awful energy. god damn right you should be scared of me! who is in control?âÃÂÃÂ
Reason so is because when i went to the mental hospital i was so insane and i didnâÃÂÃÂt feel like myself and then whenever i started getting aggravated i got into fights. although that happened whenever i did the kid i was fighting would be pinned and they saw my scars on my arms and my i would bleed from places. and when they told me to stop i wouldnâÃÂÃÂt.. even though my mind told me not to my body kept going until staff had to come and stop me and drug me up... and sometimes i felt bad for those kids cuz i never meant to hurt them but my other did... does that make sense?
oh whale anyway...
to those kids who know who i am.. i apologize dearly...

regret not trying to date sooner how could i have been so dumb i m 25f in nj us in school i believed in focusing on gradescareer and wait until i am 25 before i start dating i thought that is what proper girls should do probably influenced by old fashioned indian culture my parents are from india i realize now i was so dumb i thought sweetheart guys would still be totally available and not hard to meet after college but i should have met guys in schoolcollege back when they were easy to meet and available and less money needed to spend time with them etc idk what i was thinking now it is difficult to meet people in person and you can not really trust people onlineapps in person i can get to know them before deciding if i m interested in dating and then they are not putting up an act either and its more expensive now too ok i know i m still young and all is not lost my regret is more about my former stupid mentality and preventability not just the dating consequences | regret |
this month marks the 3rd year i have been in love with the same girl and i have 0 chances with her she is smart has a great sense of humor beautiful great listener and is always there for her friends but i ruined my chances 3 years ago when i met her everything was going so great we talked we laughed and i thought things would have gone well if i had n t done what i did when i decided to confess my love to her i felt scared so i sent her a note instead i did not ask for a response because after sending it i felt even more scared so a friend of hers had to tell me she said she loved me but her overprotective parents would not let her have a boyfriend needless to say i felt sad and this sadness later became anger towards her but i still loved her do not ask me why i started acting like an asshole and i think that was the point where any chances of a relationship ever occurring disappeared a few months later i got over it and started to renew the friendship that once was so joyful and so meaningful to me we are very close friends now and we hang out and talk a lot but i have been friendzoned and i do not think we will ever be something else after how bad i treated her that time i have tried to move on i try to tell myself that i like other girls but lying to yourself never really works does it now i am left alone and helpless none of my friends know i still love her and i m planning on keeping it that way ama if you want | regret |
