    Have any? I have a lot of them. Feeling blue. May have lost the biggest opportunity in my life, and now stuck with something I regret. Just wanted to share. :(:(

    What happened? Yes I do have some regrets, as most people! You'll be fine, give it time and take the chance next time it comes...

    Hope and wonder if things had gone differently? Maybe.

    But actually feel remorse or think of something with a sense of loss? Never. Life is one big unpredictable, ****ed-up, sometimes randomly awesome, but sometimes hit-you-when-you're-already-down ride that is essentially one big test to teach you lessons. You wouldn't be the exact person you are if it wasn't for every little thing that happened to you.

    Unless you're on your death bed, it's never too late to do something.

    Failed engagement with the only girl I ever loved. I still think about her almost everyday.

    The good thing is that I've corrected what I can, so I won't make the same mistakes again.

    When i was younger i was really into skateboarding so for the sumer before my freshman year of high school i saved up $200 to buy 3 pairs of skinny jeans. Wore a pair on the first day of school and got called "girl pants"and"nut hugger" by a bunch of mean kids...never wore them again. I still have them in my closet and i bet they still fit me.:) Don't really have any other regrets....

    Read the title as "Rugrats" then saw it was "Regrets". I regret not seeing more of that show, it was really good.

    I regret the Rugrats "grew up" and that baby Dylan was born. Aside from that, I have a billion other regrets. Most make me real sad.

    I regret not protecting myself in my divorce instead of just taking the quick way out to get it over with.

    Ultimately I regret nothing.

    What I have now could not have been attained on any other path, so it was all necessary.

    When I see the smile on my son's face I cannot imagine life without him here.

    Bitterness and anger over the past only cloud your present.

    That's why I don't regret that my one regret is one that wouldn't have changed anything currently. I'd just have some more coin in my pocket.

    While I feel everything happens for a reason, I do have regrets.

    Pursuing a bs degree in college.

    Getting into a serious relationship to quickly, and too young while in college.

    Everyone has regrets, its better to look at the success you had. Its easy to say hard to do. Regrets are part of life. Just dont hold it with you for too long. Let them go, do something new and try making sure that your futute isnt filled with them.

    At least you "protected yourself" before the divorce, if you know what I'm sayin'... :)

    My only regret is not taking college more seriously. Too much partying and not enough studying. I had a blast and eventually graduated, but man.....I really should have taken it more seriously. And got my degree in something besides Music. It would have made the following decade a lot easier for me....

    I also wish I did a better job keeping in touch with old friends. Facebook doesn't count.

    Other than that, I'm good.

    Regrets, I've had a few;
    But then again, too few to mention.
    I did what I had to do
    And saw it through without exemption.

    I planned each charted course;
    Each careful step along the byway,
    But more, much more than this,
    I did it my way.

    From the age of 7 to 12 I was in gymnastics pretty heavily. I was very young, but for what I was doing I was pretty damn good at it. Got 2nd place in rings for state one year. It's very possible it never would have amounted to much but I quit one year when I had to change gyms because my coach at the first one I attended got fired (never really learned the reasons for that). The new coach I had was a screamer and he thought that to motivate these 12 year old kids he needed to cut them down and belittle them. I did NOT respond well to that and decided to hang it up. I think I could have been pretty damn good had I stuck with it and I really miss it every 4 years when I see the gymnastics stuff on the olympics and think of what might have been.

    i loved baseball and always imagined myself as an mlb player one day. throughout my life i never played any organized ball. during junior year in high school there was an open try out for the school team on a Saturday starting at 9 am. i was running 20 minutes late, drove into the parking lot and saw the players already on the field. i was so scared and intimidated that i sat in the car for the next 15 minutes just watching. i finally gathered the courage to turn the car on and drive back home. :( BIGGEST regret of my life.

    Very similar to mine. I regret what I majored in while in college, and I regret how I've let so many good-to-great friendships just fade away completely. Every few years, for various reasons, I start over with an entirely new group of friends and completely leave behind the old ones, with very few exceptions.

    Also more regrets, but I don't share those.
