Possible mistakes that you regret...

has anyone on this board ever wondered about a crossroad in their life that if they took the other road, how different would their life be?

I had a crush on a girl in high school. More like I was totally infatuated with this girl....she was everything that I was looking for in a woman. Pretty, personality, independant...but she was young and wishy-washy. We had a terrific relationship...good friends. One day out of the blue, her brother tells me that shes been talking about me and wanting to go out. So we start talking to one another more in depth, yadda yadda we start getting to know one another better, I get up the nerve a few weeks later to make it official and she does the typical high school thing and goes after another guy....broke my heart. We still stayed in the same group and were friends, but we still had this underlying bond that we just couldn't do anything about. It was like we had this "meant to be together" feel to us.

I get a call a few nights ago and after 6 years...its her on the phone....I'm a married man, I love my wife and my child, but we talked as if we was 16 again. It was like nothing had changed.

It got me to thinking, she was a crossroad in my relationship life that if things would have went this way, HOW different would my life be?

has anyone else actually sat back and really thought about this kinda situation? I'm sure people have, but I'd like to hear about some other relationship stories and how it makes you feel when you see that one person that meant a lot to you that you never ended up with.


my wife will probably read this...lol

I had a similar crossroad when I was fresh outta Highschool. A chick I had a crush on wanted to hook up. Neither of us had protection, but she assured me the time was good.. She was hot, but even in my drunken state I knew fate might f me over. I had another beer, and left her hanging..

Two weeks later she said 'I'm late!'... After pointing out we did'nt do shit, she was still worried that if we did, it would have been perfect timing to have a kid..

Towards the end of summer she had already moved on, f'ing a few other guys by then.

Shortly after, I met the woman I married, who showed me how to get my shit together. I know.. If I fucked that chick, instead of having my carreer, I would have a 20 year old kid by now..

I regret that I didn't duck on 3/16/90 when the Transvac hose pumping 25K PSI that should have been riveted together but was however held together with shrink-wrap and duct tape broke behind me blew up,breaking loose and almost tearing my head off.If I had I'd've probably missed out on 2 failed marriages,5 inner-ear surgeries,6 screws and a steel plate in my jaw,25 teeth lost,a paralymph fistula in my right ear & 17 years of annuity payments.

I wonder this all the time. I've very unhappy where I am today and often think about how life could have been if my ex and I stayed together. I really don't even know why since he left me and at the time I never wanted anything more to do with him. That was 7 yrs ago. I wonder what he's up to know and what he's doing in his life, I guess cause he's the first guy I ever loved. I know I don't want to be with him, just hope he's happy and content with his life.

Maybe one day I will be.

umm not much else. I could say all the cheating and lying I did before I met my wife, but that was living like I wasnt going to see 30, and it was too fun to miss.
