I Regret

In my life currently, there have been so many times where I wish I could hit the reset button! I regret letting people walk all over, and doing nothing about it out of fear of being alone. I just regret not saying enough! Now I've become so unhappy and stuck with awful people in my life that I even think I've convinced myself that I'm happy and that maybe the people in my life aren't so bad! I keep asking myself that if I have to keep asking myself if the people in my life care about me, do they really?! Anyone else going through this, feel free to comment if so!

Just about everyone has regrets, and I have those exact same thoughts of wishing I could do things over again with the knowledge I have now. But that's the thing, right? You did the very best you could with the information you had available at the time. That's why you did it. Or didn't do it, in some cases. It's so easy to look back and think "I should've done that differently." Life doesn't work that way, unfortunately... You make a choice and you're committed. The moment is gone and all you can do is try to apply what you've learned to future decisions. So do you think you're unhappy? If so, then what are you going to do about it? I ask myself that as much as I ask you.

I definitely have had many times when I wish I could hit the reset button, because I rarely seem to get anything right the first time. I'm probably too easy going for my own good so I've had a lot of people walk over me, and where that becomes a real issue is when you're in a relationship because there needs to be a balance and if your a push over, then the other person will take advantage, even if they're a good person.

@SW-User very true! I'm currently trying to work on speaking my mind! When someone hurts me, I want them to hear it from me and not someone else!

@youngnconfused Good one! I hope you get there. That has been an issue for me too in the past so hopefully you gain the confidence to do it sooner than i did.

I know the feeling. But there is something else that bothers me too. I hate how I tend to take first things that come into my life and don't try to find anything better. It's not that people I meet are bad or don't care about me, but I feel that somewhere else are people I would be more compatible with. I just don't put an effort into searching for them so I stick with those who "found me".

I have the same problem too, and it's going to be okay! Let's work on actively searching for the right people, but if someone happens to find you, that's okay too!@CrazyMusicLover
