I wish I had been brave enough to tell Jason that I loved him in 1993.
Instead he left, and didn't say good-bye and I ended up with my husband
because when Jason left, it hurt so badly I just wanted to be with
someone who loved me more than I cared for them, so I wouldn't ever hurt
that badly again. I wish I was brave enough to call Jason now, because
I never stopped loving him. I wish I wasn't such a coward.

I regret that I am alone...no spouse, girlfriend, dates and no friends. I
regret whatever and everthing that got me to this state...alone and no
one to talk to evenings, weekends, vacations. I could die on a Friday
night and no one would notice until Monday morning (eventually) that I
wasn't there. If you have someone to care for, be grateful. Better than
having no one.

I regret not telling him that I love him. He was so sure when he said it
to me the first time. I closed the car door and walked away. The second
time he said it was the last time I saw him in person, and again I
walked away. We're not even together anymore, but he'll be deployed
soon. And I have to decide what I'll regret more. Telling the man that I
love, that I love him, or saying nothing, and let him move on with his
life.

SECRET REGRET OF THE DAY: June 2, 2012
I regret giving you my heart and love, finally opening up to a woman and
having it backfire. Seeing how sad you are as a person breaks my heart
everyday and wishing I could have shown you how good family and friends
would have made that empty part in your heart filled. I'm sorry your
Dad treated you so poorly, you will always be scarred from it. I don't
regret it teaching me never to take someone else's love and admiration for
granted again. So Thank You, I hope you find what you are looking for
someday. By the time you do I will be gone and in love with another
woman. You were my first true love.

I waited until 40 to have a child. I regret not starting earlier and enjoying the beauty of a household filled with children.

I regret having an abortion when i was 16, yes I was young but now that
im older and trying to start a family with the same person and cant
easily concieve, it is tearing me apart emotionally. Somewhere deep down
I feel as if im geting punished for my choices when I was younger. I
feel as if its my fault even though he supported our descision yrs ago
im blaming myself now. I wish I didnt feel this guilt and that I would
have openly told my family when I was younger rather than keep it a
secret until a few yrs ago.. Especially to know that my family would
have supported me completly if I made the choice to keep my baby, but I
was young and didnt wana disapoint them. I wish I would have thought it
out more befor making a descision I would end up regreting for the rest
of my life. Im sorry

I regret not taking things more seriously. I regret not being there for
you when you needed me the most. I regret letting petty things get
between our friendship. I regret not reporting the douchebag before he
took your life. I regret not telling you I loved you when we were
talking, just 30 minutes before your life was taken away. I regret that
it took losing my best friend to realize how short life can be and how
to not take relationships with people for granted. I love you! I will
never make this regret again. EVER!

I regret not protecting you. This might sound silly, crazy even but to me you were NOT just a dog. You were NOT just a pet. You were a friend, a companion, and someone I depended on a lot during my childhood.
I'm sorry, Andy. Please forgive me.

My family has known your family for three years now. I have always
thought you were cute but it was simply friendship. Your wife & I
became friends because we both are mothers and have children that are
the same age. But somehow, this year everything changed. You have been
having issues with your wife for a while and I have been having my own
issues with my husband. We began talking more frequently and soon
discovered how much we have in common and began flirting with each other
on almost a daily basis. The more we talked, the more sexual the
messages became. We have even sent pictures of our privates to each
other. And although we have never had sex, I know that this is still
cheating. Now, I regret ever getting in this position. Sure, I love the
attention and the way you make me feel but I highly doubt that you and I
would ever work because our families are friends with each other. I
regret feeling the way I do for you. I never thought these feelings
would make me want you as much as I do. I regret keeping secrets from
our spouses just so we can keep texting, calling and occasionally seeing
each other without our families around. I know how badly this could end
if they ever found out.
And although I'd never admit it to you or anyone else, I regret ever falling in love with you.

I still regret getting scammed by you and not realizing it until it was
too late. I regret maxing my credit card to send you the money you
asked for promising me every day that you would pay me back. It is 4
months later and I now realizing the repayment will not happen and have
to deal with a payment I can not really afford. I have to pay my credit
card instead of health insurance. I am hoping every day that nothing
goes more wrong in my life. I wish I would not have fallen for your
lies so quickly. You knew that as a long-time widow, I would fall for your
lies. You said repeatedly, do you think I could lie to you? Now I
know, yes you can lie to me. Everything you said seems to have come out
of the scammer's handbook. Oh do I wish I would have told you no from
the beginning.

I regret leaving my daughter with her father in the best year of her
life for another man who turned me into a crackhead and drained my bank
account. Thank goodness I woke up, kicked him out, and got help for my
addiction. I am 5 years clean and have my daughter back in my life
again.

I regret continuing our relationship. Long distance doesn't work for me
and it never has, and I regret not being honest with you about that. I
want to end our relationship but I'm waiting for a good reason. I regret
that I'm too scared to be without you and I'm waiting for another boy
to take your place so I don't feel so lonely. I miss you and I really do
love you but I can't continue this. I'm sorry for hurting you.

The last 11 years of my life have been very very challenging. I was
involved in what I thought was a great relationship until he starting
hitting to keep things in order (meaning me). He emotionally &
physically abused me. I've had my nose hit til it bled. I've been body slammed
until I cant breathe. I've been pistol whipped.
And the, I was shot in the neck and am now paralyzed.
I survived with my life, but I'll never be able to walk again.
So if there's one thing I can do, it is to use my experience to save someone else. That's what I'm here for, especially my beautiful daughters.
I REGRET NOT BEING STRONG ENOUGH TO LEAVE THE FIRST TIME!

9 months I've been away from him. 9 months and not a day goes by hat I
don't think about him or say something about him. I feel I gave up too
soon and too early. He didn't hurt me "that bad" I overreacted. Sure he
left a mark on my eye and I called the cops. But there are people who
get hurt worse than this. Why do I feel like I let him down by leaving
him and feel like I wont find anyone better. Obviously I can do better
because I'm hoping not everyone is like him. But then I hear about
people who stay with guys like him for years and I think I should have
stayed because it wasn't a big deal. I forgive and justify everything he
did like it was my fault. I have been told over and over I did the
right thing by leaving but why does it feel wrong? Why do I feel like
its STILL him I need. Why is doing the right thing feeling so wrong? Why
do I still have to hurt and miss and think and want HIM, an abuser liar
cheater manipulator, back? Everyday I think of all the things he did
wrong and then I think of others in situations like that and see they
got hurt worse than me. He assaulted me 4 times and only the last one
left a mark. I constantly want HIM back and I don't feel like I will
ever find anybody else, I even thought one time when he hit me that "I
deserved that" it makes me sick knowing he doesn't care and yet I'm
still here 9 months later alone with no one to make me forget him.

I regret aborting his baby girl. We were so young and in love, but too scared to go through with the pregnancy. We didn't think we were ready.
We promised each other that if we made it through all of this, some day we'd settle down and make a family of our own. What he wanted most from life was to be a good dad someday, to leave a legacy and give his child the love his dad never gave him.
Not even a year later, he died in a car accident.
I wish I had her, that he would have been able to meet her, and maybe things would have been different and he wouldn't have died.
I'm so sorry. You would have been a great dad.

I regret that I can't save us, can't save our relationship. That after
two and a half years you're ready to let go of everything we had. I
don't want to give up, I want to keep trying, to prove to you that you
love me, but I know I can't. I know you don't feel the same. You should
have never promised me the world, the moon, that you'd love me to the
end of the universe and back. We may be young, but those were stronger
than you or I could ever be.

SECRET REGRET OF THE DAY: May 19, 2012
I regret having to post my regrets on here instead of being able to say them out loud.
I regret that I never told anyone about my stepbrother sexually abusing me, I regret that I have let it haunt me for 10 plus years and that I am letting him control my life even though he doesnt know.
I hate myself more and more every day for letting it happen, I am on antidepressents and cut myself but nothing numbs the pain.
If I told my mom she would break down and cry and I dont want to place any more stress on my mom then what she already has.
I regret that I cant handle this situation without a presecription pill.
