Probably more useful info and life changing than anything posted before
1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
"This was the most common regret of all. When people realise that their life is almost over and look back clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have gone unfulfilled. Most people had not honoured even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that it was due to choices they had made, or not made. Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it."
2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard.
"This came from every male patient that I nursed. They missed their children's youth and their partner's companionship. Women also spoke of this regret, but as most were from an older generation, many of the female patients had not been breadwinners. All of the men I nursed deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the treadmill of a work existence."
3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.
"Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre existence and never became who they were truly capable of becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the bitterness and resentment they carried as a result."
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
"Often they would not truly realise the full benefits of old friends until their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down. Many had become so caught up in their own lives that they had let golden friendships slip by over the years. There were many deep regrets about not giving friendships the time and effort that they deserved. Everyone misses their friends when they are dying."
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
"This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called 'comfort' of familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others, and to their selves, that they were content, when deep within, they longed to laugh properly and have silliness in their life again."

when i nearly died
my only regret was missing the final anabolic window
i would have looked depleted in the coffin
rather than full and vascular
no one wants to go out like that

Could inject a long lasting ester just as cardiac arrest is taking place, encourage the funeral director to inject embalming fluid in to the muscles

When I die I want them to cut off my little penis and replace it with a horse cock, then I want a nude open casket funeral.

Interesting thread.

DA is pretty jacked for a man on death's door.
Or did he actually die already? I can't remember for sure.

Had they actually done all of those things then they would be stating the exact opposite. The human condition of never being satisfied remains till death....nothing to see here folks.

you re on a roll today, congrats for another great post.
Fact is... we just a link of the chain, not the chain itself. In the past people kept their feelings for themselves, nowadays it's the exact opposite with all that "social media" garbage. Still at the end of the day, that's what you leave behind you more than what you did for yourself, that matters. As long as you can say your kids did or will do better than you, there's no way you should have regrets. Now, if they did worse or if you had none, of course you re going to feel empty, we re designed to forget about ourselves and focus on raising offspring , not to be self focused all life long.

Most regret primarily not going in raw / no condom / no pulling out.

1. I wish I'd had the courage to live a life true to myself, not the life others expected of me.
I wish I had cared more about others, i had been less self centered and had listened to them more often , made them happier
2. I wish I hadn't worked so hard.
I wish i had more focus and worked harder to get higher sooner, faster, to earn more money, i wish i had been less lazy ..
3. I wish I'd had the courage to express my feelings.
I wish i had kept what i thought for myself more often, would have been easier to fool others instead of exposing my weaknesses speaking my mind naively thinking people would understand; the only thing they understood were my flaws
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
I wish I had spent more time thinking by myself and not be influenced by friends and family, I wish I had met more different people from different horizons
instead of being enslaved in two or three relationships that pretty much never evolved from the day they started
5. I wish that I had let myself be happier
This one is probably the truest of them all; could be summarized that way too: As hapiness is directly linked to the ability to dominate, control others, I wish I had dominated, controlled more people instead of submiting to too many of them.

Money cannot buy happiness, never chase down money at the expense of your friends, family and your health, you might end up with some money but you will feel unhappy and alone.

You really are a sociopath aren't you :-\

If i were to die today my only regret would be not seeing cswols amazing "contest diet" thread reach its no doubt spectacular ultimate conclusion.

Point 1,2 and 5 are not easy to fix. Point two aboout work is unclear if it pertains to workoholics. Statistics show that you need a level of income to be happy, but it does not matter if you make okay or is a millionaire. Many don't work their asses off.
Express feelings and keeping friends are good points.
Expressing feelings I interpret as expressing sexual feelings, as in having sex with strange women regurlarly. Very good point.

statistics will one day show you need a level of SOCIAL DOMINANCE to be happy... money being just a tool of that.

Absolutely, most likely they are interlinked. Money is a symbol.

Serious thread, and you go full fucking retard. Horrible poster.

6- I wish that my final nurse had been hotter and given more sponge baths. Not been writing an artvle for the guardian and asking stupis ass questions as I took a dump in my bed.
-
I imagine the number one regret would have been dying. Oh well.
-
The work thing is a huge one, in a 100 (maybe even in 40) years people are going to laugh at how insane we were working 40+ hour weeks while they chill out and robots do all the work.

Great thread AOO
-
You really are a sociopath aren't you :-\
Seriously. The fact that he believes true happiness only comes from dominating others tells us a helluva lot more about him than it does the rest of humanity.
-
i have been in many situations where i have almost died in part cause im a fan of doing stupid shit...
my big regrets would be pretty much the same....but more important than any would be me working too damn much....i literally havent had a chance for a life since i was 18...my own fault though

Great post!!!
-
I'm not sure how much choice he have over the "worked too hard" regret. Life is fucking expensive. I guess some people choose to work extra, beyond what is necessary. That would make sense.
-
I read these a couple years ago, pretty good stuff. Especially number 2.
-
6. I wish I would have fucked that bitch with a big ass that I used to work with.

No Regrets Here! I am Good looking,Retired at 47 years Young! Loved By all!

Bertrand Russell was saying exactly the same thing 50 years ago.
I guarantee you we will still be working long hours.

not really. it's a choice... look up "early retirement extreme"

Ok I'll correct my statement: "living a decent life is fucking expensive."
If I wanted to work very little and have nothing and barely provide for my family, there's about 20 countries in Africa I would move to. I want more out of life for myself and my loved ones though, but that's just me.

I imagine the number one regret would have been not writing Beethoven's 9th symphony. Oh well.

Most people die sick...The lucky ones just drop dead without seeing it coming...I'd imagine that most peoples dying wish would be to have taken better care of themselves...
This fukcing idiot here can say all the things listed above but his number one regret will be what I posted

Power comes along with a price as well and I doubt every man truly desires it. Some people are naturally content (betas) taking orders and being mindless sheep not questioning authority at all. Perhaps just as they're about to die...
And this "happiness" thing may not even exist but I keep hearing about it. There's ups and downs in life no matter who you are and what you have or don't have.

My life has been spectacular for most of the last 69 years I have been around. I take life one day at a time and try to make each day the best day of my life. I have a positive attitude most of the time. I have dreams and future goals, but I never let them stand in the way of enjoying the moment.
I have no regrets. Every decision I made and everything that has randomly happened in my life is right and amazing. I am good to go, whenever that time comes.

Translation : " I love the cawk "
I see. I guess this crap runs in cycles. Seems like today there are a lot of folks who have nothing better to offer then to make homophobic comments about me. Why what I love or do not love is of any interest to anyone is beyond me. Perhaps you're horny and hoping for a blowjob....well keep hoping, you don't interest me.
Maybe it is you who loves the "cawk" Che. I have been happily married to the same woman who is the mother of my children for nearly 49 years. Can you say the same thing?
No meltdown....but really, some people really need to grow up, you included.

I think I would regret NOT ever having done sauce. Which is why when i feel I'm ready - probably in year or two - I'm gonna take it to that next level.
You only live once.

mmmh... aint going to happen before a lot of people die. There will be 99% of slaves serving 1% of owners for still a long time. And in the end the 1% will get rid of the 99% and replace them with machines. But before they can replace humans with machine, there s a looooong way to go.
