Biggest regret light-hearted

[Bumface56]

Mine is never being able to afford a Concorde flight to New York.
What's yours?

That I didn't shag Colin when he invited me to his uni digs when I was 21

Yeah, pretty sure I did shag him. You didn't miss much.

Not learning to drive until I was in my late 30's

As a result, I am a nervous driver and I feel this really limits my horizons now.

I couldn't afford it until I was older.

I have a great job, but it limits my prospects of promotion as I'm scared to drive on motorways etc.

Taught me a life lesson tho and my DD will be learning to drive as soon as she is old enough and we will buy her a car and pay to insure her.

I want the world to be her oyster.

Settling down too young.

Learning to swim.

😂

Getting married aged 21 (I left and went back home to my parents a year later!)

Staying with my now DH, I should have split up with him but then again I wouldn’t have had my beautiful DC
staying at home for as long as I did, I should have moved out first year of uni and never went back
Bought a house/flat down south as soon as I could

That one time I tried to remove all my pubic hair with hair removal cream.

Whilst physically I may have healed; the emotional scarring of the 72 hours Fiery Minge lives on with me.

😂Oh my god

Not going out with the guy at uni who fancied me all the way through and was just a bit shy, and crying over dickheads instead.

Mine’s very similar. I sold my house in St Albans for £75k in 1996, it’s now worth about £800k.

Dropping out of my modern languages degree course in 1990 to be a full time raver and pursue unsuitable twats.

Not getting a pension sorted in my twenties.

Not taking up an au pair job in the USA - again, because I was more concerned about an unsuitable twat

Oh yes me too. Giving up 6 form and A levels to get a job so I could afford raving. Shagging a load of unsuitable men. But did I have the time of my life for a few years. Yes.

Missed the uni experience tho.

I did the exact reverse! It has cost me a lot of money.

Not going to Israel when it was relatively safe to do so.

Moving in with my twatty ex too soon in the relationship - he and his friends were awful to me.
Quitting my job after having my second DC. Shoulda gone part time and I would be in a much better place career wise and financially now

Fiery minge haha 😂

Not telling my step dad to fuck off sooner.

Going to university and doing a degree.

In my last year at secondary school I told the careers adviser that I wanted to go to beauty college to learn nails. They scoffed and told me I was too smart for that and insisted I did A-Levels and went to uni.

So I did. I enjoyed my business degree and uni life, but now 15 years later I really regret not going to beauty college. I’d love to work for myself, set my own hours and be creative. I now work a dull 9-5 corporate job.

Sorry I forgot this was lighthearted 😂

Not making a move on a crush last Christmas (night out, bit pissed, perfect opportunity)
Not looking for a bigger house 5-6 years ago due to inertia. I am now too used to a small mortgage payment.
Not travelling more in my 20s.

Not scraping together borrowing funds to buy a tiny property in my favourite holiday destination in the 2000s, when it was very reasonable. Now real estate there is more expensive per sq ft than our hometown and we're left paying a shit-ton per night for an Airbnb when we visit.

Settling down and having long relationships with boyfriends instead of playing the field

Getting kicked out at 15 changed my whole career path , I wanted to go on and do law but life became about finding work where I could live on site
And def Not thinking enough of myself to get rid of the twatty Exs of the past sooner

Thick twat men

Not dumping my boyfriend before spending the summer studying in Italy. There were so many lovely men there...and I was completely utterly faithful. Boyfriend was not. He got dumped when I got back. What a waste of vivi la vita amorosa!
