If you had a chance for a "do-over" in life, what would you do differently?

I have so many, but the biggest one is not go out with friends to the bar I didn't want to go to, and then I would not have met my ex. And also, gone to school much, much younger. It is much harder to do at 36, working full time.1

Not gain weight when I finally moved away from home to cope with my depression. Not stop going to therapy. Not stop my antidepressants. Not stay in a relationship with an abusive man for two years. Not almost lose my relationship with my parents. Not let my mother be afraid that I wouldn't be alive the next she woke up.
OMG you must be one tough cookie is all I have to say. Good for you for overcoming0 -

If I could do over the first marriage for sure. I was 15 && young && only looking for a way out of an abusive household. Very blessed to have my two children from that marriage so if I could of had them with their now adoptive father I would have but I know everything happens for a reason but for sure that. He kept me trapped and is a big help to how my weight got away from me. Keeping me dependent on him and making sure I knew without him is never have anyone messed me up for a long time so to have a do over there would be my call hands down0 -
I wouldn't have gotten married in the first place. Would have saved me a lot of misery.0

For the most part I look at the decisions I've made, good or bad, and realize that they have shaped the man I am today so wouldn't really want to change anything...except I wish I would have never picked up a cigarette...that was just dumb, dumb, dumb.1

Probably wouldn't of married my ex. Def. wouldn't of let him run my credit into the ground. Ugh. Live and learn!0

I am a strong believer of things happen for one reason or another, and if something in my past was to change maybe my present would not be the same.
BUT,.....
I wish I was more selective on the men I had chosen to date.
But if it wasnt for all the bad ones I may not have met my wonderful one
Oh plus I wouldnt have let myself get fat in the first place.......0 -

Not worry about the unimportant stuff. Spend more time with my sister and be a better friend to her. I miss her so much.0

I wouldn't have gone to college. At least not right away. It has taken me a long time to figure out what I want to be when I grow up, and college didn't change that for me. It was expected of me without me realizing at the time that there are so many ways to be successful. Who knows, maybe I still would have gone to college somewhere, but if I had to do it again, I would have waited.0

Sooooo many things...
But when I was about 5-6 years old, my mom was in art college in Paris and I went to 1st grade there. She had a boyfriend who was really wonderful to me. When we went back to the states I had no idea, but he wanted to adopt me and keep me in Paris with him as he went to medical school. I only found this out a few years ago and ever since I've wondered what my life would have been like if I'd grown up his daughter. #tooreal0 -

Where to begin???
I am happy with my wife and kids so that's good but career wise I would love to be a chef. Of course, that's without knowing all the crap aspects of the job. I wish I had been more confident when I was younger. Probably a few girls that might have gone out with me had I had the balls to ask them. I wish I had gotten in shape about 30 years ago (still not there yet but trying).
I think for the most part I wouldn't change that much. More threesomes maybe (or at least one...0 -
