OK, Post a scenario that has happened in your life that you would remove from your history if given the chance. Post as many as you like.

I'm not looking for berevements or illnesses, more scenarios where you embarassed yourself and wanted the ground to swallow you up, or where circumstances produced an utterly grim situation.

I will start...............I wish I could remove the moment when my dogs killed my neighbour's cat and I had to give it back to them. It was horrific.

Now, you go!

Edit: aiming for funny, embarrassing, disturbing, mortifying etc. rather than sad / life changing etc.

I walked out of my bedroom in my dressing gown but with an erection and my dad was standing right in front of me. :(

Very uncomfortable, I saw the twinkle of a grin on his face but I just legged it to the loo. Sometimes when you wake up with morning glory in desperate need of a slash, there's nothing you can do but run the gauntlet!

Where you dreaming of owning a small engined golf?

j/k I couldn't resist.
 
2 years ago we went on holiday to Turkey. We went on a coach trip to various places, one of which was a Rug factory where they had women making these hugely intricate rugs. We stopped behind one of the women who was working on this massive piece and the guy explained that she had been working on it for 18 years to which I said; "what a waste of a life". I don't think she spoke english as she gave no reaction but I am so ashamed of what I did, I hope she didn't understand me, I really do.

Another time was when I was very young, we were going through some tough times as my dad had been made redundant so things were tight. It was my birthday around the same time and I really really wanted a pair of football boots, it came to my actual birthday and my mam had made me a cake, got a card and a couple of little things but as we were struggling a bit they didn't get me what I wanted, I then proceeded to tell my mam how annoyed I was and that I didnt love her because I didn't get what I want. I made her cry.

I hate myself for it, to me it's the worst thing I have ever done, even thinking about it now almost makes me cry. I know I was only a child and that's just what children do but I made her cry for christ sake, I just want to go back and teach myself a lesson.

These are the 2 regrets I have in the 25 years I have been on this planet.
 
I'm not sure if I would, given the almighty power.

But yes, a previous relationship. Or rather the **** that followed.

But, as above, I regret nothing. I wouldn't be who I am without the decisions I have made, and those others have made.

to be honest that's not bad going in 25 years, you're obviously a pretty nice guy. I have racked up much more hateful behaviour than that in my time!

to the regret nothing mob surely there are external things that have happened to you which you would rather not have experienced? Don't have to be self-created - eg I didn't kill the cat but would rather it hadn't happened!
 
fight i got into on a night out just after my 18 birthday which caused me to get arrested and cautioned for assault and crim damage. (wrong crowd, very drunk - lame times for me)

bad times - bc i work with kids and explaining my stupid mistake to a potential employer is something that i would never wish on anyone especially how that was my wake up call and iv completely changed (this was about 8 years ago now btw)

asides from that probs my first uni relationship - mainly bc she was utterly fit.:)
