If we could know then, what we knew now, would you change anything?

Growing up would’ve been so much easier if I knew wearing name brand clothes wouldn’t make me popular. If I knew that it doesn’t matter that I didn’t make it on the school council. If I knew it didn’t matter how much of a dork I was…. you know what I mean?

would you? or better asked, could you?
It’s tough. I like to think that what I’ve gone through has only made me stronger. But I’d like to see how else things could’ve turned out.
I like who I am. No sense changing anything.
I probably would have done much better in college. Laziness is a disease, I tell you, a disease!
Yes, smoking cigarettes. in the 50s, we were never told of the cancer ingredients in cigarettes. they never told us about second hand smoke. they never told us not to smoke in our homes and around our children. if i had know then, what i know now, cigarettes would not be in my life. i am still healthy and everything else in my life has been perfect.
I would have pushed with my Mom, so, maybe, we could have mended fences earlier. She’s gone now and I wish that I could have had more time with her.
If I knew beforehand what the outcome of my first marriage was going to be, I wouldn’t have followed through in the first place.
If I knew beforehand in 2006 that I’d be diagnosed with diabetes, I would have been much smarter in regards to the types and quantities of food I ate. (Too much fast food and junk food was the killer)
The things I wanted to know then are things that I still don’t know. The things I know now really wouldn’t have helped me back then.
i wouldn’t have dated that girl for so long…she was lame.
I would’ve come out of the closet a long time ago. I waited until the day before I started college to come out. If I had known that the boy I crushed on for six years was gay…holy shit…my life would’ve been a lot different.
@jjmah That’s my regret, too, that I’d change. I’ve hinted about a guilt that I have here before in other questins, & my mom is the crux of it. 11 years later, there’s nothing I can do about it & everyone says to let it go, but its hard. Maybe some day I’ll be able to forgive myself. I dunno. Oooh..I’d change so many things. :-(
O I try not to think too much about this if I only knew then what I know now stuff its depressing .
I’ve thought about this many times before. I would think “I would have gone to college.” or “I would have taken better care of myself.” I now realize that these are things that I can still do, I’m just too lazy. It’s depressing.
Hells yeah! Where do I begin? You want the whole list or just the top 40?
