Your Biggest Mistake

[sr71blackbird]

What is the biggest mistake you ever made? Does it still haunt you? <br />I used to work at a job that I really loved and did well and was making great money.&nbsp; But I made a mistake that cost me the job and I have yet to make the kind of money I was making then, and it was almost 10 years ago now!&nbsp; I often play the&nbsp;&quot;what if&quot; game, and think if I didnt do this, or if I did that instead, maybe I would be really well off and happy or whatever.<br />My mistake?&nbsp; I was caught taking a T shirt and got shit canned.&nbsp; Sure, people make far larger mistakes, but when I think about the impact of that one bad judgement call 10 years ago, I wish I could go back in time.

<p>no regrets.&nbsp; </p><p>its the things that happen in our lives that make us who we are.&nbsp; how we cherish the good times and weather the storm during bad is what defines us.&nbsp; how we raise above the dark clouds and bask in the light truly builds our character.</p>

[furie]

i can't say i've made any life altering mistake yet. i have my regrets, but minor ones.

[reeshy]

Christ.....just one regret?......I got a thousand...but the worst one was not making my wife go to that one doctor's appointment........she died in 1999<br />

[Hottub]

<p>Regrets, I've had a few;<br />But then again, too few to mention.<br />I did what I had to do<br />And saw it through without exemption.<br /></p><p>And fuck yes, I did it my way!!!</p><p>Look at me now, Ma!!!</p>

[reeshy]

Shut up, Hottub./......teeheeee<br />

[HeyGuy]

<p>Great thread!</p><p>I have made many mistakes. Some I have learned from and others I continue to make. The bigest mistake I ever made is real personal but it has changed my life forever. Everyday I think about it and wish I had to do it all over. Its been 12 years and it still bothers me and will forever. </p>

The biggest mistake I've made was not getting out of my last relationship when it was so obvious it was done.&nbsp; I don't regret sticking around, because I learned a lot about myself during that time.&nbsp; But looking back I should have walked away a lot sooner than I did.<br />

[JohnnyCash]

My one regret is not visiting my close friend in the hospital when he was sick. He called me and said not to come down because he will be home in a few daysand he didnt want me to see him that way. We talked on the phone almost everyday for that week and everyday he said the same thing. &quot;Dont come down here, Ill be home in a day or two.&quot; He died a few days later.

[ShelleBink]

I've had a million mistakes... probably the worst one was telling my mom that I was choosing to stay with a guy who was beating the shit out of me.&nbsp; Everything worked out for the best, but I know those words cut right into her.<br />

[Gvac]

<p>We're allowed only one?</p><p>Can I have 10 tied for first place as my biggest mistake?</p><p>I think it's just the law of averages; the longer you're around and the more experiences you have the more mistakes you're gonna make.&nbsp; I guess as long as you learn from them it's OK, but one thing I've discovered is that you <em>never </em>learn from the mistakes of others, only your own. &nbsp; <br /></p>

[FUNKMAN]

not dancing with my grandmother at my wedding. we had a typical big wedding and were so busy during the wedding that we didn't even&nbsp;finish dinner. she was already&nbsp;sick and wound up dying from cancer not long after. i was always her 'little clown' and could always bring a smile to her face...

<p>I got a pretty good lighthearted mistake. When i wa about 15 or 16, i got my first tattoo. The tat itself isn't the problem, its the placement. You see, shortly after i got this it became very common place for every girl aged 18 to 40 to get one in the same place. yes my friends i'm a man with a tramp stamp. gay i know.</p><p>i'm currently looking at entire backpieces to help te cover up (i also have one on my shoulder i'm not crazy about.)</p>

[Jennitalia]

mine was probably hanging around with the same person for a couple of years.&nbsp; I wasn't in love with him, and the sex was awful, but I was going through some depression/anxiety issues at the time which made me a mess, and even though I was even more miserable with him, I stuck around because it was some sort of stability.&nbsp; Kind of like Doogie, I got my act together and started changing things in my life that were bringing me down and letting go of some things, including the past.&nbsp; I'm still fucked in the head.&nbsp; But yeah, why waste time focusing on past negativity, when your future has so many options and can be as positive as you make it.

[Jujubees2]

<font size="2">Almost 44 years ago, I was in this nice, warm place where&nbsp;I had everything I needed.&nbsp; Then one day, I started feeling like someone was pushing me so I started moving down this canal towards a bright light.&nbsp; I thought it was a good idea at the time.&nbsp;&nbsp;A pair of hands caught me as I emerged from the hole and&nbsp;it's all been down hill from there.</font>&nbsp;

[angeladi]

<p>I think im probably the one of the youngest people replying to this, but i think my biggest mistake so far has been gettin married too young and staying married for a year in a half to a guy that was really abusive, and i should have left him right away i should have never married him when i saw he was controllin but yet i did!!! what the hell was i thinking, only one good thing came out of this and that was my soon to be one year old boy........ so NOVEMBER 23RD will be a great day!! the 6months will be up!!! and ill be officialy free from him</p>

Look at the look on its face. Bitch is asking for it!

[Reephdweller]

<p>My biggest mistake was not being smarter with my money earlier in life. I never saved the way I should have and I also ran up credit cards as well. To this day I am a LOT better now and save though I make pretty decent money now that still goes to other peoples pockets. I'm getting there, though I could have had a better life right now had I been smarter. </p><p>I still have my spend thrift moments that sometimes get me in trouble, though it's not nearly what it once was. I'm a lot more realistic about things and keep myself focused on goals. Though those earlier days fill me with regret every day.</p>

[mudflap170]

<font size="2">The biggest mistake I ever made was starting my own trucking business 10 years ago. Boy, am I regretting that move these days. I should have just kept driving for somebody else.</font>

[dereckfishboy]

<p>I once cheated on a girl back when I was seventeen. She started dating an older gentleman pretty much to not only get back at me but to get the stink of betrayal off of her. The older gentleman enventually raped her. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I've tried for eleven years to make amends for what I had done to her and what I indirectly caused, but nothing I've ever said or done has helped either one of us one bit.</p><p>The guilt of that one will probably follow me my whole life.<br />&nbsp;</p>

<p>Like everyone else, I too have made many mistakes, and I can't pinpoint which one was the worst one.&nbsp; However sometimes I feel my biggest mistake in life was to fall in love with someone who said she loved me back but had lied to me.&nbsp; I would have done anything for her, before her I was a hard headed &quot;don't give a fuck about anything in life&quot; type of guy.&nbsp; She taught me how to love, how to love life, how to love people, I have never cried in my life (maybe when I was a baby) before, but after meeting her and being with her, I found out there was another part of me that never came out and probably would never have come out had it not been for her.&nbsp; There was nothing I wanted in life, but just to be with her, I saw her face in everything around me.&nbsp; Then all of a sudden one day, she took my heart out of my chest and threw it out on the streets for dogs to play as a chewtoy, figuratively speaking of course.&nbsp; Maybe there were signs, but I was blinded in love.&nbsp; And now, I don't know if I shall ever fall in love again like I felt for her and I hate this feeling.&nbsp; I have let go of so many who could've been my soulmates.</p>

Concerning my biggest mistake with a member of the opposite sex, I can't decide if it's the one I let go or the one I never got.&nbsp; <br />

[boeman]

<p>I used to have a very large regret...</p><p>I was very close friends with a girl... she was easily a 9 and one hell of a person. We were together probably 70% of the time.</p><p>I knew she wanted more than a friendship, but I wasn't sure if I wanted one as I had just gotten out of a relationship that turned very bad... quite frankly, at the time I didn't think I deserved to have her. She was always great to me. I know that I would've never made her happy at the time, I was too immature.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The regret went away last year when I found my fiancee... I have a lot more in common with her and we make each other very happy (most of the time).&nbsp; If I could do it all over again, I don't think I'd do anything different.</p>

[A.J.]

I was going to start a new thread but thank God for a working search function.

The other night some friends and I got on the subject of regrets in life. We were talking about hindsight being 20/20 and wishing you knew then what you know now.

One of mine was I wished that I had not given up on playing baseball (on my last team, I played with some shitty/lazy players and it ruined the experience for me). Another, I posted before, was that I regretted not joining the Naval Intel Reserves after I was graduated from college.

[Kris10]

A few but I think I'm too ashamed to admit them right now.

[JesterOfSadness]

I wished that I didn't give up on playing hockey, but with the high school that I went to that dream would have crashed anyway. Fuck you East Brunswick.

Should have taken the offer though of trying out for football or baseball during my junior year of HS, as I got a lot of recognition from both players and the coaches (and this was just during reg. gym classes). My dumbass excuse was that "I don't like school sports".

And finally (for now), I should have applied for security positions since that is what I'm interested in with my field (Criminal Justice), but chickened out due to some companies charging money for classes/training. Hey I was broke...pfft..I still am.

[CYYYFYYY]

I have made MANY mistakes with the ladies. Not leaving them soon enough. Or not going after certain ones that I should have. I have also lent waaay too people money that I never saw back. However my biggest mistake was simply, did not take school seriously at all.

sorry Ralphy,that was unnecessary! I shouldn't make fun of yer obviously candid heartfelt ability to share.
I personally regret going to Alaska,I think my life would've been drastically different had I not gone there.

[Kris10]

telling people i made a poopie.

That was pretty bad, almost worthy of removing you off my myspace. ALMOST.

[ralphbxny]

I had a sour stomach and did it while i was asleep...its natural!!

I've never done it!

[topless_mike]

do you have any regrets? anything you didnt do/start/finish/accomplish?

i regret that i never had the chance to live by myself. i went straight from maw n paws house to our house.


also- just did a quick search, and didnt find this, so if this is a previous thread, my bad.

[douchenozzle]

i regret the day that i was conceived.

[nate1000]

i regret the day that i was conceived.

me too

[douchenozzle]

me too

i regret the day you started posting

[Dirtybird12]

I have a bunch of regrets. But the only one that haunts me to this day involves my best friend of 20 yrs.

I wish I could go back to 1993 and just start over from there.
But I cant. It kept me up at night for years. Still does at times.
It's the one mistake I cant seem to shake or smoke out of my head. And for good reason. Im almost glad that I cant shake it. I dont deserve to shake it.
