Anything, really. Something you did, didn't do, missed out, etc.

I regret not supporting my niece in her hardships through high school, as well as her relationship problems. I know she was desiring my help, but I was selfish. Hopefully, I'll be able to somehow impact her life in the near future.

I regret not giving my time to a girl that was dealing with suicidal thoughts. I did not live near her, but I should've taken time to help. She reached out to me, and I failed.

I regret letting a woman get raped outside of my home. I was 15 years old, and the thugs were numerous, so I let fear keep me from even calling the police.

I regret missing out on many things, allowing religious indoctrination, fear, and condemnation to rule my life.

Perhaps you regret missing out in certain things, or simply failing someone close.

My experience is that gamers aren't the sympathetic /empathetic sort.
There are psychological sites you can go to.WEBMD has a forum. A psych nurse comes on there occasionally and you can talk to her and she can offer you advice . So please consider going there to discuss these kind of issues.
Me ?
My life is full of regrets.
Good luck to you.

I actually regret nothing. Everything I've done whether good, bad, or indifferent has led me to the point I'm at. And I'm very happy with where I am in life right now. Oh sure, sometimes I wonder where I'd be if I'd done some things differently, but I don't regret them. I try to use anything that I look at and think I maybe should have done differently as a life lesson, learn from it, and move forward.

Life's too short for regrets.

I regret that:
I hadn't exercised much until age 16 and it definitely damaged my spines.
I rushed starting the university, when I could wait another year and study something more practical.
I hesitated too long to find something to get its master degree in university (not qualified to start it yet!).
I didn't contact my high school friends (some of them were very interesting and/or cool) for a long time that I actually lost them forever.
I didn't search for girlfriend/wife when I had better opportunities
I couldn't see through the BS contracts and deals my father was doing. Despite his good salary that was like 4x over poverty line, we just have two really meh apartment units (living places).

Life's too short for regrets.

Yeah, right. Everyone has a great life, period.

Did I say that? No. I said life's too short to for regrets. If life deals you a bad hand, that's not necessarily your own doing. You can't regret something not under your control. The things that are/were - it's useless to regret. Learn from it and move on.

I don't understand this concept of "regret", but continue on, please.

Ultimately, my opinion is that no matter which path you pick, what choice you make, you will always feel regret in some form or another.

I used to regret, but not anymore. I don't regret anymore because all it does is hold me back and make me think about the past, when truthfully, I can do jack-all about it. The past is past but the future is yet to come.

"I have made it a rule of my life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy... You can't get it into shape; you can't build on it; it's only good for wallowing in." - Katherine Mansfield

A friend of mine in college had a saying, 'regret is a useless emotion'. Over the years, I came to accept and agree with that statement, and every iteration of what it meant in my mind.

What I finally came to believe myself is that regret is one of your choices at a crossroads. Either you can regret what you did or didn't do; or you can accept it, learn from it, move forward, and never do it again. Look forward, and stop wallowing in the past, because you can't change things which have already happened. You have the power to make better choices in the future, based on experiences from your past. Embrace it, and be a better person in the future. /soapbox

It seems you all have a good life and none of your decisions or passivities have been harmful, an obstacle, opportunity-burner, time-wasting etc. ...

Good luck.

I can't think of any.

I don't think anyone said they'd never made bad decisions that were detrimental in their, or someone else's life. The point is not fixating on those bad choices, but learning from them. Accept your role in it, take notes, make amends, and move on. Don't become paralyzed from past mistakes. If you don't have control over your emotions, what do you have control over?

Not getting revenge before someone else was hurt.
Ruining the family lives of 30-40 people.

Regret is not an issue

Anxiety possibly...

How did you ruin 30-40 lives?

My regrets would be:

Not being more sociable in my teens, my lack of a social life has made me a bit of an antisocial. Not really a regret.

My other one is still trying to figure out if it will be a regret or not, if it turns out to be a regret, it will definitely damage any good chances of getting a girlfriend or wife. But it won't be years until I find out, if it is true.

At the time I took a descision that might lead to a regret later. I try to look at it has the best descision I took at the time. It might not always lead to the best outcome or what I really wanted, but I take it has a life experience rather than drown in self-pity.

My life is far from being glorious, but it's my life and I can be happy with it. You just need to allow yourself to be happy. I don't have to be anything else, but myself. Yes haters and unhappy people might try to compromise my happyness. There's always someone who will tell you ''do this that way and that way because it's not okay if you don't do like I said''. But sometime you just have to allow you to make mistake. Because that part of being you. I'm not super successfull by societal norm, but d00d .. That's me. That just me.

Seriously. I just try to live in the present. Today. Planification is okay , but never at the cost of living the moment present. I used to be preoccupied a lot by what others were thinking or wanted of me. Today I just allow myself to be me.

Do I have regrets ? Yes .. Man I really wanted to talk to that babe the other day ... never had the courage , but if I had .. Maybe that would have been worse. Who. I just move forward in what I believe.

I regret my adulterous affair

[Raizo]

I regret pretty much every major decision I've made in my life. I all envy people who can say that they regret nothing in thier lives or those that do but say they would not change anything if they could do it all over again because if I could do everything over again I would change a lot.
