    Ah only have 2 regrets tbh, one. being 18, being told by family your moving to a worse area than the nice one you grew up in and were happy and not just going out and getting a job asap and staying in the same area then.

    two. not giving the person who lied to my face, pretends to be all nice and up in the air about everything when its really the most cunning, sneaky, untrustworthy, nasty little s*** waste of space and everything ive ever had the displeasure of knowing, which i hope gets its commuponce (spelt wrong prob) as soon as possable, a very big punch to the face, pint over head, glass in face and a kick to the floor!
    Never in my whole life have i regretted something so much as that, or been so angry at anyone before that person! :mad:

    No, my English is sufficient, but I cant do maths at all.


    smart hole.

    Can I be an asshole and just tell you why he made the smart comment?
    It should have been HAVE instead of of. Should HAVE paid more attention in maths class. And also paid instead of payed. So two mistakes in the first three words of your sentence. :o Morto for ya! :D

    Sometimes every day seems a regret!,but even if It were possible I probably wouldn't be capable of making it any better!:D

    although I would love to learn how to fry an egg...

    Choosing the wrong girl...

    Not caring enough about my life in the past two years. What should have been the prime of my life was pretty much wasted.

    Still have time to turn it around though.:)

    Having a relationship with someone who has ruined my life, the ripples are still having effects 3 years on :mad:

    Breaking the law when I was younger and getting a conviction.

    Blackfrancis I'm sure your one of the Nowhere-near-as-good-looking-Friend's regrets too.:)


    She's probably in the Ladies Lounge posting in the 'Most memorable night of your life' thread as we speak.

    Not scoring the sexiest girl ever when I had the chance. JaneB. Oh to go back and do the opportunity justice, with a bit more self belief, I would have acted on what she told me subsequently she was well into.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,571 ✭✭✭Aoifey!


    1. Doing the "better" course just because my mother expected me too. I knew I wanted to try it out first instead of just jumping straight in, so why didn't I do what I knew was right?!

    2. Last Saturday night. Stupid decision. Messed everything up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 636 ✭✭✭cute_cow


    I wouldn't have settled down so young. I was 22 when I became invloved in the relationship, and lost my 20's to "couple stuff". I suppose relasitically I cud have changed that, but looking back now, thats my main regret.
    Don't get me wrong, I love him to bits and always will, but sorry we couldn't have left it a few more years too meet :D
    Damn fate!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭Vinta81


    Told a secret to people I shouldn't have drunkenly last summer...ruined a possible "relationship" because of it. Such is life.

    Hang on a fking second. Since we're being assholes, who starts a sentence with "and"?

    Going along with it and marrying somebody whom I didn't love (or, rather, I realised too late that I didn't like the idea of settling with anybody for the rest of my life) because, well, we had been going out for so long and there were expectations/commitments. :(

    Marriage is not for everybody.
    thats why i never got married i enjoy life because i made that decision
