all_cats_rgray Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 It's something that bother's me when I go to sleep. I did nothing when he dumped me. I did not beg, try to get him back. I went NC. and he's gone.. I regret not trying... what do you regret?
CompleteFailure Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Seriously though, I regret not acting sooner for the big stuff. I also had thousands of opportunities to do things differently. Sometimes I conquered, most times I caved. I never let things go when I should have because I always wanted the "win". I didn't see that she was always losing. If I could go back, I would change so many things that the relationship we have now/before the now wouldn't even look the same. I abused it every way I could, I kind of still am.
pofnin9 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 I regret how I treated her (or didnt treat her) but I can't change that now. I regret not loving myself and taking care of myself and I know that is what I need to do now. 3
uniqwa Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 I regret Fighting over stupid freaking ****... I regret not being confident in myself and allowing him to hurt me and give put downs that affected my spirit.. Allowing him to act like a jerk sometimes, being someone who got walked and stomped on.. I regret not giving him space.. being too clingy with him, the "clingy" is literally what pissed him off the most.. SoO yup.. That's what I regret ALSO when we had ready made foods.. I would just toss them in the oven and not give a ****... Only when I cooked did I give a **** to how things came out. O_- but that really pissed him off to no end because SOMETIMES I would forget O_O
Hope737 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 I regret letting her walk all over me. We're both 23 now and I knew she was the one waaaay back when we were 14 and I saw her walk into my Science class for the first time. I looked at her like I never looked at any girl before. We became friends and eventually started a relationship together that lasted three years. My life was complete at such a young age. Perfect. However, after those three years it was time to go our separate ways, both going to different universities far apart. We broke up mutually as we were only young. However I knew deep down that one day we would find eachother again. And we did. Now as young adults, both with respectable careers we started seeing eachother again. Once more, life was perfect and I now had EVERYTHING in my life. The dream job, my dream girlfriend, the lot. But it turns out in the end I was too nice for her. I guess I was trying to compensate for last time we dated where we I didn't treat her as good as I could. But this time I over compensated and was too nice to her. I treated her too well apparently. Anyway it all came crashing down as I found out she was cheating on me. That young girl I watched walk into my science class when I was 14, was now the woman who was cheating on me. Seems she was looking for a guy who would put her in her place and be more assertive. So here it is, I REGRET I couldn't be the assertive man she wanted, I regret I let her slip through my fingers. She was my childhood sweetheart who grew to be my first and only love. She meant the world to me, but I lost my grip and lost her. The biggest regret of my life.
pofnin9 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Hope, I don't think that's your fault mate. You were just doing what you thought was best. She is the one who didn't communicate and tell you what she wanted. I think instead of regretting we need to learn and try to grow as people so that we do not make the same mistake again. I even hate saying this myself but when **** like this happens it is almost necessary as it is how you grow and become a stronger person and have stronger relationships in the future.
CompleteFailure Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 I regret allowing myself to turn into this person I'm not just to give you what you needed. I regret that I stuck around this long to find out I was wrong about you. I regret that I constantly try to stay friends and hope for more. I regret that one day I'll look back and realize that I don't love you anymore. 1
Starrdust Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 It's something that bother's me when I go to sleep. I did nothing when he dumped me. I did not beg, try to get him back. I went NC. and he's gone.. I regret not trying... what do you regret? I know what you mean. BUT from my experience with my recent break up, my begging and trying just pushed him away. I wish I did what you did and went NC. That way I'd have more self dignity than I do know. I spent two weeks tryna convince him that he had a wrong decision to dump me. It just drive him further. What will be, will be. Something's just aren't in our control. Hope your feeling ok
Echo000 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 you regret not making a fool of yourself? you left with dignity..you shouldnt have to beg for those whom you love and love you back. Love is hard, but it shouldnt be hard in that way. 4
itto ogami Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 Probably 98 percent of folks do not walk away with No Contact -- and yet it's the best way to actually fight for the other person. By working on yourself and letting them feel the void. Setting them free might be a cliche but it's the truth. 1
h3braica Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 i regret trusting and believing every word he said that turned out to be LIES in the end. i regret loving him so much that i forget to love myself. i regret that i made him my best friend my only best friend whom i can share everything and completes every day of my life. now he's gone and i feel all alone.
Amelie1980 Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 I regret not communicating properly with him. Asking how he felt, I regret not raising issues I was unhappy with at the time and storing it up until I blew up in the end.
siankat Posted April 13, 2013 Posted April 13, 2013 i don't have regrets but i worry that i will choose wrong again next time :/
