that point in your life??

[rugeleyboy]

do you wish you could go back to the point in your life where you took the wrong turn??

they say you learn by your mistake's, but whats the worst thing you regret?

[*Zeus*]

yes............had at least two moments when I wish i cud....10 and 7 years ago

[rugeleyboy]

was it a woman zeus??

[*Zeus*]

10 year ago it was a bird and a job.........and i dont mean the two 2gether !!!!!

7 years ago ...it was a flat i wish i had not been talked into buying....lost money and not recovered from that even now

[alfiebrady]

Did those two wrong turns make a right?

[unruliejulie]

i think you have to make mistakes in life if you're ever gonna learn anything. There is a couple of things i've regretted in my life but not so much as to how things turned out but because i hurt people along the way. i still regret hurting my ex husband when i left but i can't regret doing it because my life wouldn't be how it is now. I also regret not getting onto the property ladder whilst housing was still affordable to first time buyers! we're stuffed now! But i believe life is too short for regrets in any serious kind of way! It's not like you can change a thing!

[unruliejulie]

as for my ex, he hurt big time when i left him but he's now married to a lovely girl half his age with 2 beautiful daughters!!!

Was all poised to write one thing that happened when I was 19 but then realised that I wouldn't have what I have now or experienced what I have if I did. (2nd glass of wine calling, gotta go...)

Heart-searching question, R-b. So here I go into the Confessional box.
I so very much regret being away when my Mother became ill and so not being there when she died in tragic circumstances. I was also away when my Brother died through alcoholism. It is always the things one doesn't - or can't - do, that saddens one the most, isn't it.

Also I regret being 'the other person' in marriage break-ups through my own lust and selfishness.My regrets have haunted me for years.

[rugeleyboy]

me and the wife both had a house each bar the one we lived in, i thought the property market topped 2 years ago, so we sold them both,it kept rising........... if we sold them in todays market,we could of been living mortgage free!!!!! doh!!!!!!!

[rugeleyboy]

the one above from me was not the mistake in my life i wish i could change by the way??

[Rubyrose]

I don't think I'd change anything.. I wouldn't be the person I am now if I fixed anything. Live and learn... :o)

CompNut.. we never finished our chat many many days ago! How do you know so much about me Mr? Lol

[unruliejulie]

compnut, thats very honest of you to admit! Don't spend your life regretting! it;s too damn short and like i put in my 2nd post, good things come from bad things

[rugeleyboy]

life sorts itself out kind of thing jules?????????

[Rubyrose]

Every cloud has a silver lining?

[rugeleyboy]

ahhh, i dont think some regret's are that easy to push to one side!!!

[unruliejulie]

exactly RB, couldn't (and didn't) have put it better myself! Well, like i say, i have a beautiful son, he has 2 beautiful daughters so yes, life does sort itself out and i am a great believer in fate! Que- se-ra, oh i'm coming over all Doris Day!

[rugeleyboy]

so did erroll flynn!!!!

[unruliejulie]

We make certain decisions at specific times in our lives that we wouldn't dream of making at others.Not saying you push them aside, impossible because its human nature, but i don't think you should dwell on them, after all, no amount of regrets will change the course of your life. I just find it hard when people have been hurt but i guess thats all part of life. I have always said if i hadn't made the choices i did, i wouldn't be who i am today and i'm pretty happy with my life!

[unruliejulie]

so did errol flynn what?
