What's your biggest regret?

[charliebigspuds]

After having trials in my school years at loads of different clubs and not making it I got offered a semi-pro contract at 19, I turned it down due to enjoying myself too much at that time clubbing, watching City home and away and playing amateur footy with my mates. Regretted it ever since.

Not a regret as such, more a nagging question.

5 years ago I had a really severe virus that knocked me sideways for the best part of 5 or 6 weeks. When I finally felt like I was back close to 100% I went for a game of football but the exertion pushed my body over the edge and triggered off M.E/Chronic fatigue which I’ve had ever since and it has limited me hugely. I sometimes wonder how different things may have been had I given myself another couple of weeks recuperation. Having said that I’ve subsequently got to know some very nice people who I wouldn’t have done had it not been for that turn of events so for that I can be thankful.

I have this same problem, I had a serious virus and pushed myself to the limit with college and work. Now I'm stuck with CFS, worst 3 years of my life upto now, slowly improving though.

Stick with it blue, hopefully we'll both be fighting fit in the fullness of time.

Never getting any 'proper' qualifications beyond my A Levels. Something I think about at least once a week...

Exactly the same for me. I did quite well at School and at College but decided at the time i didn't want to further my education for whatever reason. I'm still quite young, in a decent job but it's not something i want to do for the rest of my life. The things i want to do now all require qualifications beyond A-Levels but i have now have a mortgage and bills to pay so can't really go to Uni

To everyone posting on this thread DON'T REGRET ANYTHING. These last 12 months for BB2.0 have had more ups and downs than most have had in a lifetime, I have loved and lost twice with two beautiful girls due to my own infidelities and selfishness. I have earned and lost large sums of money and have experienced unbelievable highs that a lot of men may see as a dream, as well as reaching the depths of despair.

Fact of the matter is, don't live in the past. Look back and smile at the happy times, learn from your mistakes and vow not to make them ever again.

I have two. Many years ago i went to an 'Opportunity Knocks' audition, singing and playing one of my own songs, and got invited back to do the television bit, but my total lack of confidence and extremely low self-esteem made me turn it down.
Also, I've got my Equity card and I used to do a lot of extra/background work for film and television, etc. I did something with Kenneth Cope (from the original 'Randall and Hopkirk. Deceased', and more recently as Jed Stone in 'Coronation Street').
He invited me to talk to his agent so that I would get upgraded to small speaking parts where I'd get a credit.
But I didn't.

I sometimes wonder what might have happened had I gone for these two chances.

What was his name?

Firstly, sorry for forcing you to read my threads.

It was a her, actually. If you really care that much, I could explain over PM but I guess they'd just be moments you'd "never get back".

I'm sure we will have another thread about it soon

Probably not. I should have realised the true feelings I had for her around December 2009, so there's no going back now. :x

2 biggest regrets!

1. not studying hard enough
2. rejecting a job offer, an opportunity to work in Canada

Following on from the 'biggest fear' thread what are peoples biggest regrets?

Could have been a job opportunity you didn't take?

A girlfriend/boyfriend you ditched?


Mine was a trans-atlantic love affair. She was in Baltimore and i was here and it was mid 80's so back and to across the atlantic at the time wasn't an option.

I called it a day as i knew it would never work. But her dads business has took off somewhat since those days....bugger!

I hope your missus realises how you're spending your time on the internet... wallowing in memories of a lost love!

She''ll fucking kill you if she finds out!

Oh yeah, her and who's army?





Don't tell her though....:)
