I would have (too) many regrets for a 22 year old kid. In no particular order:

1. I'd definitely regret never trying my stand up material (I've been working on my act for a couple of years).
2. I'd regret never experiencing a serious romantic relationship (confidence has been an issue my entire life)
3. And even though I have no control over it, I'd regret not being able to witness a Cubs win a World Series.

What about you?

Also: That I'm spending the Saturday night before the end of the world on an internet message board lol.

    If the world ends, I'll regret all those bills I just paid. I could have had a LOT more fun with my last few weeks on earth than paying utilities and insurance and mortgage. :laugh:

    I'd regret ever being mean to my mom and ever doing a sin.

    I don't really have any. Sure, there are plenty of places I would like to travel. But I have a great relationship with my parents, I have a wonderful husband and beautiful son. Honestly, I guess it would have to be that I didn't get to see how my little guy turned out. I love him so much that I hope/pray he turns out to be a great guy.

    I'd regret spending the best part of 24 years with eating disorders, losing me so many opportunities and achievements.

    Well, I don't believe the world will end.

    BUT... my only regret is really general: that I didn't do more with my life. I've spent it in school, playing it safe, spending too many saturday nights in, not having more confidence, being too shy to try new things, not traveling, never doing the things I really want and instead following others.

    It's definitely something to reflect on. Once the 22nd is over, and we all do survive, I'll look back at all these things I "regret" and hopefully make some changes.

    I'd regret never getting married, never having children, and spending all of my 20s morbidly obese, depressed, sleeping my life away. I also would regret any of the times I took my mom (who is now deceased) for granted.

    Then again, I already regret all these things....now if I just could get my butt out there and start truly living. I just don't know where to start...as I feel I missed out on so much already and I live in BFE.

    :ohwell:

    As a Pirates fan, I am not certain that they will have a winning season before the actual end of the world, let alone in my lifetime. I am optimistic, however, twenty straight losing seasons is hard to swallow. The curse of Sid Bream lives on.

    No regrets. I've lived my life my way, suffered appropriately for that, and I'm ready any time.

    I only have 1 regret in my whole life and i cant say what it is (due to that it could be found if said person searched).

    Sure ive done stupid stuff but everything is a learning experience for me. I am content in saying what i did above.

    Oh man.. This is an easy scenario
    Regrets, in no particular order.

    Not telling my mother I love her when she was visibly upset. My gut telling me to TELL HER, and my stupid *kitten* didn't. No idea why..
    Ignoring my kid sister growing up knowing she thought the world of me. No idea why..
    All the things I should have said..
    All the things I should not have said..
    Being so picky that I haven't started a family.. YET
    That I wasted so much of my life worrying about what other people think and compromising my actions to please them..

    Fortunately I believe in reincarnation in some form or another, so I will still have another chance to evolve and grow.



    In closing, that I wasn't invited to push the button.

    My biggest regret if the world ends, would be the world ending. That seems very regrettable.

    I don't believe in regrets, but I have inadvertently hurt people in my life and I wish that I had handled those situations better.
