Cutting
My biggest regret ever is when I began to cut myself. No one around me thinks I could be that self-destructive. Some girl in class saw some marks on my arm and had the audacity to laugh and ask, “you cut yourself?” I simply replied “yeah, it was an accident.”

Leaving My Friends Alone When I Knew What They Were Capable Of
My biggest regret ever is leaving my friends alone when I knew what they were capable of. When I was fourteen my two best friends tried to kill themselves. I knew that the one was cutting herself, and I knew the other had a messed up life - she moved to Cape Town after being kicked out of her moms house in the UK, and she’d been drinking since she was eight, smoking since she was ten, and doing drugs since twelve. We were hectic kids. After a night of drinking and partying - everyone left, and it was the three of us left. I got in the shower, and when I got out, I couldn’t find them anywhere. I found them in the other bathroom in the house, half dead. Barely breathing. Lying in their own blood. Luckily they survived, but I should have known.

Walking Out on Her and Not Asking Her To Marry Me
My biggest regret ever is walking out on her without any explanation. We would have had a wonderful life together. But I was so self-absorbed that I couldn’t bring myself to fathom the concept of marriage. So I moved out. After six happy years together. Broke her heart. And can never get back or fix what we had. Or could have had. Now I live in a bedsit. Alone.

Not Talking You Out of Getting That Abortion
My biggest regret ever was not talking you out of getting that abortion. I know you regret that choice now. You’re like a sister to me. As young as I was, I would’ve gladly adopted and raised her as my own. I’m sorry, I failed you when you needed me the most.
