This seems like an interesting thread, I'll bump it :biggrin:
Obligatory comment about being born.
I regret dating the older brother instead of his more intelligent, fitter younger brother :cry:
Making an account on this.

(So happy I was first to say this, but now I bet as soon as I post it there will be another one.)

sorry you had to wait for 2 hours ...
I don't really have 1 big thing that I regret (though somethings that happened on various nights out could probably qualify), but in general I regret not taking chances when I was younger because I was scared of failing (and maybe a little scared of succeeding too)

Edit: I repped the post below, because I did the same. Thinking back I put no where near enough work in, and if I had worked as hard as some of my friends and some of the people on TSR I would have been able to get into a really good uni. But on reflection I don't really regret that. I had an awesome time at uni, got a first and made friends for life. Maybe everyone gets caught up and fixated on what could have been, rather than stopping to really appreciate what we have.

Sounds like this decision had far-reaching consequences.

Yep. He was my best friend and the only person who would hang around with me at school after I stopped hitting him. He was a good guy who I had a lot in common with. However I didn't do much with him outside of school. So I ended up ringing the other people I used to hang around with outside of school. I should have rung the first guy instead.
