70 People Ages 5-75 Answer: What's Your Biggest Regret? | Glamour - Розваги
Notice how 99% of the adult's regrets start with 'not'.
You don't regret what you did, you regret what you didn't do.
Take a chance in life and do what you're scared to do!

Thanks for that mate 🙌🏼🙌🏼

It seems that younger people regret things they've done and older people regret things they haven't done.
Younger people still have their whole life ahead of them. It's hard to regret something you didn't do when you are only 20. I mean... life just has started for you.
The things you have done are things you havent done. Same thing.
@@apolicum really do u think so because I am 20 and so worried
I've watched the video and to me it seemed absolutely even
Your comment had 999 likes, I made it 1k. I just wanted to let you know.
People who didn't go to school regret not going. People who went to school regret not trying harder. People who tried hard regret not enjoying their time. There's always positives and negatives to our choices, best to focus on the positive rather than regret the negative.
Really well said, since some felt no regrets. I can’t relate but every time I do have a “regret” I see it now as more of learning opportunity. After all life is full of regrets and learned lessons that benefit all.
@@isiahmccosh8540 I really don't understand people that say they have no regrets. That means you always treated people fairly and basically lived the life of a saint.
For sure! 🙂
@@danieldavis3035They don’t say they haven’t made mistakes, but that there’s nothing they would change. A regret isn’t simply a mistake, it’s a choice you made in your past that you would change. As that one guy said in the video, he’s made a lot of mistakes, but that got him to where he is now, so he wouldn’t change a thing. Obviously. anyone saying they haven’t made mistakes are being ridiculous, but regrets aren’t necessary for every mistake
Excellent response !
Did anyone else feel that man's pain as he regretted not giving his father more ice cream before he passed? As a doctor, please, give your dying loved ones all the ice cream they want. Breakfast, lunch, snack, dessert.
Was going to say something about it cause it resonated deeply with me as well. Something about regretting such a simple gesture has something very human about it. Reminds me of how fragile all life is.
That one almost made me cry. My mom is temporarily in a skilled nursing rehab center right now. She’s 82. I won’t let them put her on dietary restrictions because, well, she’s 82. I think she should get to enjoy to the fullest what life she has left.
If you feel you're about to die,might as well eat what you love or like so you can die smiling knowing the last thing you did or eat mada you happy before passing away
that comment stuck out to me the most and i teared up
@@titteryenot1136 ok tom. Lol
"I wish I knew when I was younger...how wonderful I was"

Yeeeessss
"Not giving my father more ice cream before he died"
It really is the little things in life..
nah
Oh yea. Itbis.
So true...
This was a heartfelt wish
I think it was a metaphor though
I'm 42, and the one about not knowing how wonderful I was when I was younger really hit me. I think if I regret anything, it's spending so much time worrying about what other people think of me.
i'm 39 i still worry,and that's probably part of being a highly sensitive person. it does get a little better with age but not where i hoped it would be. I'm a young soul in an aging body and sometimes that's really hard to acknowledge
Same..
@@jimskeuh i feel you man...
I didnt go through life like this. I didnt really care what people thought of me. I actually cared more of what I thought of myself. I Was my own biggest critic. Elwin, if you dont mind me asking. What are some examples of things you worried about what others thought of you?
@@Mercenary-1914personally. I don’t like being looked at or noticed. I avoid presentations, avoid crowded areas, avoid letting my presence be know, all that stuff. I understand no one truly cares about me, but I can’t help it. I’m sure I’ll regret not enjoying my time more, but it’s difficult to, I’ve shoved myself in this box early on and didn’t pull myself out to enjoy the life that would soon flourish as life would continue. Now man I have a question, why are you so loose and carefree to others opinions ?
I'm 22 and my one regret is waiting. Waiting for a "perfect time" before I do something, anything. Waiting for an opportunity to come by. Waiting for other people to catch up to me. Waiting for a perfect moment to say what I need to say. And many many more. So I guess, if there's any take away it's to just stop waiting. Because yeah good things come to those who wait but remember that greater things come to those who make it happen.
Same man, same. I'm still like this lol.
15 right now, have the same problem. Feel like I should just take action but I don’t
@@tekgewet At 15 you can literally start anything and become great at it. Do it now. Don’t wait.
I've been waiting for the perfect time to ask a girl I know out, I've already waited a few years :(
@@tekgewet you're still so young, at 15 I did some things, but after that I kinda wasted my time and had some problems and fell into deeper depression than what I was experiencing. But now I'm trying to recover and trying to do good things again.

I really resonate with the 31 year old. I'm 19 now, my biggest regret was watching peers around me get made fun of, excluded, alienated, etc in middle/high school and not doing anything about it. It wasn't my fault that they were bullied but I feel that to an extent I'm also responsible for seeing and allowing it to happen. It breaks my heart thinking about how it may have affected these kids having to come to a place 5 days a week for 7 hours where they don't even feel like they belong. Stand up for people, you never know how much it can mean to someone for even just one person to show that they care.
As a person that was bulied a lot let me say: is not your fault
@@joseluispcr yeah it’s clearly yours. A pushover that never stood up for himself. If you weren’t filled with so much anger and hatred then it wouldn’t have been so hard for you to stand up, you wouldn’t have been bullied in the first place
i'm 17 and my biggest regret was bullying kids. Back then i was 12 and i didn't know just how much pain i caused to people. left me with a guilt for few years until i finally got the courage to forgive myself and say sorry to these people.
@@TheTruth-13 you could be right, but there also may be more to the story
@@TheTruth-13 wtf you talking about weirdo
i turned 22 yesterday. Still have not got much thing to regret, but as I saw this video, I realize that I HAVE to try more things. Before my fear turns into regret
The regrets are getting more and more depressing each age
ua-cam.com/video/0SnBWD2MvA8/v-deo.html
trueeee!!!!
The biggest regret i have is ever since my dog passed away in 2017, i did not give a final goodbye hug because i had severe OCD at the time. And knowing about the fact that i didn't give a final goodbye hug to my dog that i've really loved, makes me hate the fact that i'm alive. It brings tears to my eyes that i didn't give the last goodbye hug to my dog. I'm a 15yr old boy, and i still cry every time i think about the day my dog died, and that i didn't give a final goodbye hug
@@WillyShanker I know the hug was important to you, but would your dog want you to feel this regret? Can you concentrate on how lucky you are to have had this dog you loved so much? If you loved your dog and treated him or her well, please try to think about that . It is not easy to lose someone you love. Sorry for your pain.
thats because the chance and magnitude of a regret increases more as you age
5-15 - childish things
16-35 - career related regrets
36 - 60 - emotional (friends and family) related regrets
61+ - regrets about abandoned dreams
Nah not 16, I saw that start at 17
I'm 21 and I regret childish things
@@xum0007 it seemed more like a bit over 20 for me.
@@michaelterrell5061 that’s when they started getting consistent
@@xum0007 Now that I think about you’re right.
I’m 18 and my three biggest regrets probably are:
1) Not being more social and active in high school.
2) Quitting sports
3) Not asking out the girl I liked before she moved away.
You still have a chance to move things around. Make use of your college days and talk to as many people as possible. Try to be less picky and less judgmental. I wish I had. I am 28 years old and I have just started feeling the weight of it all. All the things that I should have done and it doesn't feel pleasant. So please seize the day and life your life to the fullest.
can relate for no.3
Spot on brotha. You ain’t alone
We almost have the same regrets, but I have also more. I'm 22 btw.
id say 28 is still young imo. atleast you've better experience of what you want to do. im 25 and have been in therapy for just an year now and getting better finally. i still consider myself as a 23yo bec i lost 2 years due to covid all the things i wanted to do. id say man please just take action. im closer to your age then OP so thats why seeing you do better and seize the opportunities now too. ask that woman out, play that instrument and start that hobby. hope we can stay in touch@@fromamoroccanperspective3318
I’m 21. I try not to live with regrets, I believe everything happens for a reason and whatever happens in our lives shapes us into the people we are at present. That being said I do regret not living in the moment at times in my life. Too much time overthinking, being distracted, etc. Learning to put the phone down will really help with that
Thanks! I guess it helps as i am 18 and want to live my life to the fullest.
To be 21 and see this is amazing. I am in my mid 40s, and my mom is in her early 70's She told me she had so many regrets, and she would have married a different person or had done different things career wise. Then asked me if I would do things differently. I told her NOPE...because everything I have done lead me to the life I have. I have a wonderful son, and believe it or not career and relationship decisions had an impact on me meeting my ex who I have my son with. I followed up with also, "Mom, if you married a different man, you would have had me and my brothers"
47 made me cry. I feel that way too much.
"I wish I knew, when I was younger... how wonderful I was"
Old Man i really had to pause and process that one 😫
I feel like based on this one + the “hardest thing you’ve ever done” video where she says “forgive my father”......I feel like there’s some dark history of abuse there:(
OMG RIGHT? LIKE I DIDNT SEE THAT COMING OR MY HEART DROPPING WHEN IT DID ):
As someone with depression, I think about that everyday.
Old Man same 😢

The fact that this video is only five minutes long and goes through 70 years of people makes me realize how fast we age and how fast our lives fly by.

The first kid is absolutly right... life's a playground or nothing🖤
It seems no matter what you do you would regret something. Whatever choice you happen to make, you’ll miss out on the other. So you might as well focus your energy on what you’re grateful for rather than regrets. ❤
Different perspective 😍, well said mate !
finally someone who understands. my biggest regret is having had too many regrets in life. with that said the present moment is the one and only reality there will ever be so why dont enjoy it without regretting so much
My regret: Living in the past and future and abandoning the present
So true
That’s rather ironic.
I can relate
Relatable
Lol.. true!! actually its the case with lot of us..
my biggest regret is acting too much like a grownup when i was only a little child...
We are in the same team. But know that you will be successful in life. 👍
For real ☹️
Same
When you're acting/ being inauthentic people can see through it. So technically you were still a child in people's eyes. You can fake words and actions but you can't fake energy.

I am 28. And I mostly regret not being able to do my studies seriously 5 years ago for nursing.I feel like I let my self down and my mom down. She's getting older, and she will soon retire this year or next year. And things are going to change so much that I need to grow up not live the life I used to.
Currently now, I am doing my studies for it so I'm hoping that I can make this 2024 different for myself and my mom. I really am scared for the future but im willing to not take things for granted this time around. Prayers that I can do this...i really need it.
I regret not dating when I was younger. I then learnt the hard way what people can be about, narcissism, gas lighting , abuse, I just didn’t have the tools to identify red flags nor did I have a point of reference…. It took me years to grow my emotional intelligence cause I also always avoided people and drama and also I learnt to trust myself more.
Now I’m with the man not of my dreams cause he’s way better than what my mind could concoct.
This actually scares me a little. I spend so much time studying that I'm afraid I'm missing out on so much things.
Laura Juric girl get out more. My best friend is 21 and she finished her degree in finance and economics with honors in 2.5 yrs instead of 4. She always says she wishes she slowed down and took time to enjoy life as a student (and study abroad). She's currently struggling to figure out what her next step in life is but she's finally taking time to relax and be a alittle irresponsible before joining adulthood. Find a good balance😀
***** That's exactly what I'm going through right now. Just trying to MAKE time for other things.
This semester I only studied and studied. I have perfect grades but it doesn't satisfy me.
It feels as if by constantly spending time with books, I kind of lose myself as a person and become this machine. All these hobbies and conversations that make you who you are, when you don't have it anymore, are you still YOU?
Thanks for answering by the way.
I feel the same way! Let's promise that we both stop being that machine and start living😊
BeALimitedEdition Promise! This isn't healthy anymore I think, so I'm up for that.
Great!! I'll keep you to that promise😊

i am 17 almost 18 now, and the regret that haunts me the most is not spending my last 5 years intensively cultivating my passions: music and art.
i have always been aware of my potential, but i struggle to live up to it because of distractions and poor time management.
so, i regret not investing in myself at an early age, thus becoming really technically good at my crafts.
but lately i'm starting to think that there's a reason behind this: true awareness in our interests and possibilities come naturally at the right time in our lives (and cannot be forced), perhaps i just needed to gain mindfulness, experience and a hit of regret in order to get things going. especially for emotionally-based disciplines, which i'm interested in.
and by the way, i'm still very young and i know can go far, if i set my mind to it.
Hey, I just wanted to comment because what you said is incredibly relatable to me. I’m 19 now in my first quarter of university. I used to be very regretful of the years I spent playing Minecraft instead of writing or practicing violin. We only get a few shots at being the best we can ever be and now is the time to do it. I know there are 8 year olds better at violin then me and I could have written multiple books at this point, but there’s still so much time - if we start now.
I believe in u
You’re still young. You can still make up for lost time.
18 yo here, I feel almost the same, I can't help but feel like I just started my journey, anyways as the other guy said, we are young and we are just entering our prime so let's go.
I relate to your feeling. I am
dealing with the same situation.
1:16 that hits hard. I was also 24-25 when my dad died and it still haunts me how little I spent time with him.
I am 25 and I feel the same.
It’s interesting how none of these regrets really included money - which is what a lot of us are chasing nowadays. None of them said “I regret not making enough money...”. Sending love to everyone.
Great observation !
Not true. Career and studies = money
Very true. I think most older people realize they'd have rather had a career they love, not just for the money.
I was thinking the exact same thing
Time is the most valuable thing in the universe.
To future self: Ask your crush out soon, they may have also liked you all those years
did you do it?
(back me up guys let them push a little themselves)
You can also do it...or atleast go tell them about it...if it's impossible for you guys to be together now
I actually did it and got rejected but knowing I dont have to waste time on them anymore is so relieving that I am more content and happy than before
6/10 would recommend it
What if it’s my teacher
Kinda got a crush on this girl I think shes got a harder crush for me I’m just hoping thats true.
I'm 37 and all that I can say is that any regrets I have in life will not be used to mourn them, but to help and support my kids so that they do not have the same list as me.
I'm 27 and I regret not having more empathy for strangers. I used to be a lot kinder when I was younger, and fixing that is going to be a lifelong process.
I regret not doing things because of my anxiety
Same here 💔
I just wanted to tell y'all anxiety its not your fault. I get you, but its not something you have control about. You're not alone and I hope with time hopefully you can achieve everything you want in life. I believe in you okay?

As a 20 year old, I have a vicious cycle, in which I constantly regret not doing certain things earlier even though I'm aware that my life is barely starting and I still have a lot of time to do plenty of things. I just have this belief that there's a stage in life for everything, and I feel frightened that, just as now there are things I want to do, but should've started doing when I was younger, I may not do things that I'm the right age to do, and will later be regretting it.

We need to appreciate the elderly more and listen to them and thier experiences, they went through bad experiences so we don’t have to.
Spend more time with your elders before it’s too late, they’re precious
Understand how 'not doing something' is the BIGGEST reason here. Trust me, failure will not hurt as much as regret will. Like come on, life is an adventure, so live it like one!

I’m 50. My two main regrets when I was younger are that I regret people pleasing and also allowing people to define who I thought I was. Live your life.

i’m 24 and unfortunately i’m still like this. i always tell myself to stop being too nice to people but eventually i’ll be nice to the point they take advantage of me. i don’t know to change to be more firm & confident but i really hope i’ll get there one day.

This video is a massive wake up call for me about doing what what’s expected of me and making sure I don’t regret not chasing my dreams.
I was considering a drastic career change in my late 30s and a friend told me that in the end, you only regret the things you didn't try. I quit my job that week and love my new career.
"Not knowing how wonderful I was when I was younger." That rocked me to the core.

It actually made me laugh. I thought... this is what you regret??

I’m not even past my twenties yet, but my biggest regret I think is being alone. I’ve been way too picky with people and I know that a lot of them could have been friends with me for a long long time, but I just never gave people a chance to get to know them before making a judgment. I convinced myself that the right person had just not showed up yet, and even if they did, they wouldn’t stick around for a long time (or after college) Now I don’t have any friends and I’m kind of re-learning how to know how to not be picky without being gullible. And it’s so much harder to have a good friendship without school anymore.
I’ll also add that even though I wasn’t close with anyone, I did people please A LOT. Getting more and more desperate for someone to like me, when I wasn’t realizing that plenty did. Eventually I did find a friend; we told each other everything blah blah blah… perfect Hollywood friend ship in my eyes. But she turned out to be (literally) a sociopath who, without me knowing, was hurting other people including my family! After her, it was pretty hard to get over it and find a new person. So yeah 😅 there’s my splurge of random emotional junk onto the UA-cam comments lol 😂
I couldn't agree more. You have exactly described what I am experiencing. I regret this every single day and the pain only gets stronger by each passing year.
Seriously I have good social skills while I hate socializing, I love being alone as an introvert. My friends are always asking me for trips and such that I always refuse due to my hate for being in social. Well its a something I love , I love to spend time alone and thinking , so will I regret something that I used to love?🤔

'Not giving my father more ice cream before he died' UR CRYING, NOT ME
What if he killed him by ice cream 🤔
Grace Platt That was the saddest one, because I could see myself crying over something just like that as a little kid, and its always to stupid infantile stuff that gets me the worst. 😭
Why is that sad
@@reemaalmu9172 you monster its depressing
Time stamp please
The one where the guy regrets "not giving more ice cream to his dad" 3:22, is probably the saddest one. Sometimes small things can really leave huge impacts.
it's also not well thought out and probably not his actual biggest regret lmao.
@@alessandrodigiraffe2355 It's a stand-in - he regrets not just enjoying the time with his dad while he was dying.
its so sad the more i think about it
The fact that this was his son's regret probably means that he was very loving and caring towards his father. I think that would be any father's wish.
@@alessandrodigiraffe2355 honestly I don’t believe you are correct. If you had a parent die you would know it’s those little things that you could have done better haunt you, especially if you’re a parent your self you realize how much your parents love you and how much they sacrificed.
"not staying in touch with people" and "being afraid of so many things resonated with me! i am going to call my uncle now.
My biggest regret is letting people treat me bad just to be around someone,
then base my self worth off of how they treat me.
I'm 29 and I'm now learning to let go of toxic relationships, including family, and surrounding myself with loving people.
This shouldn't scare anyone, it should inspire you and encourage you do the things you always wanted to while you're still here. Chase your dreams.
Yahhhh💕
chase your reality
@@part4963 That doesn't make sense, if its a reality it already exists lmao. Make your dreams your reality.

51: my second marriage -- that's low key savage tho
i think its more sad than savage.
Melissa McNair in another video he says that the hardest things he went through in his life was his second divorce, which makes his answer in this video even more interesting. I wonder what happened during this marriage.............
maybe its about how it ended
How is that savage?
in the hardest thing video he said his second divorce was the hardest thing...something tells me it's still pretty fresh for him
I'm 18 yrs old and i regret all of the wasted time,bad habits,not working out, not spending enough time with my grandma RIP😢💔
The get so much heavier the older they get. Life is so complicated... i hope we can all learn to live with our regrets.
Eat healthy, do exercise, take vitamin tabs and sleep well.
That's what I've done and it's my 90th birthday next week. 😊

Happy birthday! 💜

At 20, my biggest regret is not living our lives to the fullest when my friends were still single. Now, most of them are in a relationship, planning their future we used to plan with each other.
17 years old here, and I regret all of the dumb things I have done. I just want to give up with the position I am in right now, but I know I won't sooner or later because of the acknowledgement that the pain will be passed on to others. I have learned to love yourself, but I don't know how...
"Being frightened of so many things when I was younger". Yep, that hits me the most.
That hit for me too and I’m only 21 😂
@@smartguy4149 tfunny thing here im almost 18... pretty young to feel the way i feel😂
Fearless...otw
That hit me hard too. I am 32.
I think I must do something to face my fears...i am 16
I’m 25, I think my biggest regrets are making the choices of friends I did, not speaking up when people said or did bad things, not realizing I was trans earlier, not getting help an accommodations in school earlier because maybe I would have more of an academic future, and not taking my cat to the vet earlier because maybe they could’ve treated or cured her congenital conditions and she’d be here with me now.
I am 46, at a point of looking back at my life...what i have and not have done. I am blown away by all your comments here people. I am glad it's never too late to make it up...
Biggest regret, broke an amazing girl’s heart
Ouch
Oof
My biggest regret is going with someone who broke my heart
i think i feel the same
Same
that 20 year old dude who said "I regret taking myself too seriously when I was in highschool" danggg I can feel that too aahhaha
Samee 😂😭
Lmao same. Too focused in 1 thing then forgot everything else. It's my biggest regret after graduating highschool
Yope me too but the thing is i'm still doing it. It's hopefully gonna change soon cuz I'm starting at a new school soon just need to get THE ONE !
I didn’t take it seriously enough. Luckily i turned that into a military career 😂 Sometimes it’s for the best.
Can you help me out please. What do you mean when you say you took yourself too seriously?
The best one for me is. "I am who I am because of the things I did, I wouldn't go back and change anything."
"I have many regrets but I am who I am because of them so I wouldn't change anything " best answer
"Being frightened of so many things when I was younger" - that touched hard & motivated! Thank you Miss (63)

Yes, very relatable.
Perhaps the only reason she is still around at 63 is because of those fears that gave her life-preserving behaviour.
Goodness. This really did resonate more than anything else for me.
yes
I regret how I dated every person that told me they had feelings for me ignoring the fact that I didn’t even like them back.
It's the opposite for me, I regret never giving a chance to anyone that has had feelings for me and having spent a lot of years waiting to feel something I don't know if I'm capable of feeling. It gets really lonely sometimes :(
Relatable
Ugh...it feels horrible to be single! All your friends get boyfriends! And they hang out with them and then your all alone. I wish i had a boyfriend
Relatable
Hey hey hey, lower your voice please.
I'm 17 who is about to turn 18 , and my biggest regret is ruining friendships and relationships because of the things I've done and said. As a result, I see myself as a bad person and sometimes fear that I'll end up ruining more than I already have.
I did the same thing
I regret missing out on fun opportunities because of my social anxiety
Same. I am 22 now and I want to be more social after the outbreak. I may be a bit late, but still....
I regret not getting a partime job as a teenager, and instead getting my first job at 21 (if you don't count internships etc..)
I don't know how old you are and maybe that doesn't apply to everyone.
But don't try to force yourself to be more social and to do things too hard.
Maybe try to talk to some people in your environment and try to become friends with some. You might have friends and just not go to "fun things". So maybe you want to go with your friends to wherever they are going next time. Not always just try out. Maybe there are fun places you want to be (I don't know, maybe amusement parks, etc, whatever works for you) and you can ask your friends if you want to go together?
If you say it's too hard, maybe you should consider professional help. It's not a shame to get help and it can change your whole life
Well guess what supposedly I will attend a debut today but because of that, I stuck right in my room
You shouldn't regret something you can't control, especially when you feel what your doing is the best for you in the moment. And now you know that you may have missed opportunities so you will seek more, better, opportunities.
@@mitchell123456789011 this !! I felt so sad for a long time because I felt like I missed so many fun opportunities when I was studying abroad. However, now I realise I did what I could at the time whilst coping with really bad mental health. There is still the chance to have fun and meet new friends and people
This was an eye opener. I regret not doing so many things yet I'm still fairly young. This is scary.
There will always be things you don’t do. So you regret not doing them. You have to realize that the present is extremely complicated, and stop putting too much responsibility on yourself.
it is the point that you are fairly young. there would be more reasonable regrets if you were old.

I really want age 74 to tell me what he knows now... I'm 18 years old and I would really appreciate and listen. You may not be able to tell it to your young self but maybe you can find a young persosn who is really willing to listen, like me!
Literally love talking to older people in like there 70s + there normal so very nice and there normal always willing to talk to a younger person, they make amazing friends too.
read more books especially autobiographies
Same. I'm 15 and I love having deep conversations with older people who reflect on their lives.
Well, many people regret not having done something. When you are older you understand things better, maybe something like. Yeah I would have been more social because it really isnt bad and i should have looked over my fears.
Listen to your parents when they say try your best in school. I'm not old but I'm old enough to look back and regret that. I wish I could have gone to college and enjoy living in a dorm and go to a university.
Most of the regrets are related to School or College..this shows how much our teenage life is important for us :-)
It becomes a pool of regrets when the time slips away, and on looking back we realise that we were able to and we should have studied more efficiently and effectively..........
And family dont forget that
@@typhoid6836 failing in high school is very low. Even if you perform really bad, there's a chance that teachers will still pass you.
I don't regret all the fun I spent with friends and watching anime, series, movies when I was younger and fun felt so good. Now fun doesn't feel the same, fun is not fun anymore.
@@robertoh3633 Man, I get exactly what you're talking about
I am 33, what I regret most are not watching and growing up with my favorite Disney movies and not playing the sequels of Kingdom Hearts at 15 and beyond as soon as they all released, I was destroyed mentally, spiritually and physically at 15 years that it took me 14-18 years to reclaim my inner self. I didn’t heal at all just I got back my old self. My sufferings truly wrecked my life and my youth, I began to be so depressed I even changed into a different and a very miserable person. It took me so many years to return to who I really was and am. I finally beat all the Kingdom Hearts games and watched my favorite Disney movies within the last 4 years and 2 movies at 2016!!!!

You are who you are and every decision you ever made is the best you could have done with the knowledge and situations at that point of your life. Sometimes these decisions stay with us in the form of guilt. There will always be something to be guilty about, its a part of life, its because you are human and its how you learn and grow.
Hoping to have made no mistakes in life is like wishing for something humanely impossible. So please forgive yourself and allow yourself to live your best.
I am 26, and pretty much everything between like 20 and 39 made me feel like that was amongst my peers. The guy who appeared at age 40 made a huge transition on what I was watching here.
22: "not taking a chances"
26: "i wish i knew what i really wanted to do earlier"
27: "not getting into computer science at an earlier age"
55: "not listening to my self at times in life when i should have"
It's not too late ...Let's do it !!!
Hmmmm....
all those are my regrets
So you wanted to major in comp sci but didn't?
This gave me shivers... The 55 yo gave up on stating a specific regret and just said "not listening to myself when I should have"...
Most of them regret 2 things:
- Not loving others enough
- Not loving themselves enough.

So, all we need is love.
I don't love myself because a devil controls me and I cannot set me free
@@robertoh3633?
Not loving.
I'm 31 yrs old, and I don't regret anything I've done in my life. Everything that has happened to me has happened as it had to happen. I have done what I wanted with my life.

@@malhunt7 And thats his opinion,your point?
@@robertoh3633 then you're marrying the wrong person
It's not a diss directed at her partner. In fact it probably only proves she is strongly commited to them because otherwise it would be easy to break up and live the single life she feels she missed out on.
I take it as meaning she wishes she had more time to go through life solo and discover things about herself that are often not quite as easy when you are thinking about the other person and how decisions affect them.
Like people who become parents too young. Doesn't mean they don't love their kids. Just that they regret not enjoying their young independence when they had the chance. Most people truly only get that level of freedom right after school or after they retire and who knows what old age will bring or whether you'll be around to enjoy it.
My Biggest Regrets:
Not studying harder when I was younger
Not being confident in myself
Not appreciating my parents more and being more respectful and kind
Not choosing a major in science in university
Not asking girls out that I was interested in
Not standing up for people who were being bullied or treated poorly
Saying mean things, treating people poorly
Not spending my time wisely, learning and developing new skills
Not seeing my grandmother one last time before she passed away
shinyam75 thanks... I'm of Same personality as you, maybe i can make myself better
shinyam75 I’m deeply sorry about your grandmother.
+shinyam75 I wholeheartedly agree on the first one and last two regrets you listed. I'm also working on being kinder to my parents and people in general.
That pulled on the heartstrings
I dont think treating people poorly is a regret. If u ever treated anyone nicely u wouldve known. When u treat them nicely they ll take advantage of u
I was born on May 2003.
I'm 19.5 now and my biggest regret is wasting so much time gaming.
I'm talking like 5000-6000 hours of my teen life.
I became overweight and most of the online friends for whom I sacrificed my sanity to play games with abandoned me when they were done.
If I could rewind 2-3 years I'd quickly delete multiplayer games and study well.
Same here. May 2003. And the same things you faced. I spent my time on online games like you and sacrificed so much of my life only to realise it was a mistake. I realised it pretty late, that's sad.
You can do that now. It's never late.
Your still quite young brother you have lots of time to improve just don’t make the same mistake!
It is common. I'm a fair bit older but remember spending months on COD4 etc. Eventually I stopped playing online all together and don't play at all now. You are still way young enough hit the gym, eat well. The difference you can make in 6 months, 1yr, 2yrs. Also get outside more walk or something works for me.
@@mdcmdc1 and other precious guys, thank you so much for these kind words.
I'm hitting the gym next month and will focus to do better in my Undergraduate degree with full concentration.
