Moments you would erase from your life if you could

I would have gone on my gut instinct that the silly bint would actually pull out infront of me on my motorbike and stopped in time.

Actually chosen 05 10 12 17 28 30 47 in the last lottery.
 
I don't really regret or wish to erase anything in my life as it has all shaped me into the person I am today. Not happy with everything but who is?

I suppose there is one thing I wish did not happen as it totally changed my relationship with my father. My mother ran off with her boss when I was 15 and I had to look after my younger sister as she took it really bad. I suppose my Dad did as well, but he did a great job looking after us so never really saw the truth that it hit him so bad. A couple of times we had massive arguments as you do with your Dad when you are 15/16.

We had a blazing row over nothing one night, probably me being an idiot and he went to grab me. I squared up to him, not for the first time, but properly. That look he gave me I will never forget. Fear mixed with sadness. He knew that firstly I was going to hit him and secondly, his little boy could probably finally beat him in a fight. :(
 
I would probaby erase the 8 or so years I spent smoking weed, I definately would have got more done and been in a better place. 4 years of no greenery and life couldn't be better, I just wish I hadnt wasted so much time.

Ditto my friend, but 5 years not 8.
 
Walking on the street drunk at a stag party for a mate and cursing at the policeman that told me to get off the street.
That lead to five cops jumping on my back, cuffing me, throwing me into a policecar and spending a night in a cell.
 
well the two are, undo the tattoo i gave myself when i was 14 and then not burn it off with acid would be the other but it becomes pretty redundant given the first one really.
 
Stopped trying to please everybody else sooo much earlier on in life.

Moved out of home earlier.

Telling some chick in a nightclub I'd date her so she'd sleep with me :wack: (pretty sure that's a regular occurance to some, but it's very unlike me). Oh and worn a rubber d'oh number 2.

Wish I'd got on the train with that hot asian chick that wanted to take me home, but instead I felt as I had only got to the pub 10 minutes earlier I had best stay with my mates. d'oh!!!

Not slept with the midget bird from the bar I worked in whilst at uni. And worn a rubber!

Not wasted so much time with an Irish bird at uni that I screwed up my first degree.

Not got so much debt that I would already be living an working in America with my wife right now and my wife's parents could be part of our kid's life.

Other stuff I won't mention that is rather literally gay lol.

Not getting a third dog because we didn't have a baby, then find out 2 weeks later my wife is pregnant LMAO. Not really a regret, just much harder work lol.

Gone to Amsterdam with my College mates rather than going to USA with my parents lol.

Can I ask, how did you stop? Do you still see the people that you used to hang with? Did you completely change your routine?

I started getting really reclusive, paranoid and depressed. I'd wake up every morning and feel like total rubbish and couldn't figure out why (I should have realised it was the weed earlier I know). My mates would ring me up at the weekend and ask me to come out for a pint but I would rather stay in and get stoned.

It got to a point where the negatives were far outweighing the positives, in fact there were no positives, I wasn't even feeling stoned anymore when I smoked, it just made me seem to feel "normal". I started to look at the people around me who smoked too and realised they were all going nowhere fast so I decided I didn't want to live my life like that anymore and make a conscious effort to stop buying it.

Don't get me wrong, it was one of the hardest things to shake for the first 3 or 4 weeks, and then it got gradually easier and easier and I started to enjoy life hugely just for the simple things.

I had a couple of slip ups where I had the occasional toke at the pub if someone had it but it gave me instant paranoia and made me realise why I stopped in the first place.

I didn't consciously separate from my friends that were still doing it, but after I stopped I realised I didn't have much in common with them anymore. I still see them and hang around with them from time to time but now have a different circle of friends that doesnt revolve around playing xbox and getting stoned everyday.

Giving it up was the best decision I ever made and I feel like I got my life and my personality back. I'm much sharper, much more sociable and enjoy the small things in life. Overall I'm a different and better person :)

That's really good to hear man.
 
Hard to regret/erase things from my life as I feel relavtively happy now. All the bad stuff that has happened in the past shaped who and where I am today and cannot regret that.
 
We had some group trying to encourage people into interesting careers at our school, big assembly lots of dancing and singing (and rapping :cringes: ) trying to appeal to the kids. This was at about year 11.

Anyway I was walking up the stairs to my next lesson chatting to my mate when I said, "Who are they to talk to us about being successful and getting decent careers, I mean you cant exactly call what they do a career" (I was joking not being mega serious).

At the top of the stairs and within clear earshot were 3 of the 10 or so 'performers' who had clearly heard everything that came out of my mouth. One of the females looked a little upset as i walked past into the classroom.

Safe to say I felt very very guilty.
