Default If given the opportunity, what would you do over?

On occasion i have found myself pondering the little question, 'what if'....
If given the opportunity, is there something that you would have done differently for a specific result or do you find yourself content with where you currently are in your life?

Me, personally, i would not have accepted blame for everything that went wrong in a previous relationship, the truth would have hurt him, and i was more worried about his health and feeling responsible for the condition that i allowed all the blame and anger he had to fall on me. So i find myself wondering, what if, would we still be together, on talking terms, or as we currently are, pure hatred for me? Long thought process, maybe not worth my time, but still care enough to think about him once in a while...

mostly girls i should have openly expressed desire for. at worst, i would have only suffered the 'i really like you as a friend' exit.

I would say 'Thanks, but no thanks' I am very happy with my life and understand that who I am and what I have accomplished today is because of all the bad and all the good. I wouldn't change a thing... not a thing.

Looking back on all the idiotic decisions I've made, and no doubt will make in the future, I'd say I would do nothing over. Yeah, there's a lot of things I wish I would have done differently, but I wouldn't be the person I am today if I had done them differently.

Gosh! I could actually be a social butterfly instead of a hermit in a cave! Gosh darnit, maybe there is something I should do over.......

Nah!

i would not trust the people around me as much as i have.and i would choose a different career; definitely a different a occupation. your occupation defines you very largely.

It's very hard to answer that question... On the one hand I know that every good and bad decision I've made made me what I am and I wouldn't like to be somebody else than I actually am today. On the other hand there are, off course, things I would like to have done in a different way. But I think it's more important to draw the right conclusions from your mistakes instead of standing still. It's important do develop yourself and to not stop that from a certain age, although questioning yourself might sometimes be hard.

Not really, I did a lot of stupid and wrong decisions in my life, but I'm happy the way I am currently. But there is one thing that I would change though, and that would be coming to Egypt instead of staing in Saudi Arabia.

I agree with the people that have said it is all the good and bad decisions and events that make us who we are. I wouldn't change a thing. I try to be true myself and even when I wasn't, that part of my life got me to where I am.
