What is your biggest life regret?
Based on this video:
So, what was biggest regret of your life? I'll start: Missed top college for 1 point; had to take second best. |

not telling someone I forgave him before he died.
Second place, not getting my PhD when I had the chance... |

I've made so many mistakes in my life, I forgot most. And none I'd say was the "biggest". There were several crucial points in my life so far, where I could have made a different decision which would probably have changed where I am now.

Not building a time machine to change all the things I regret.

"Going steady" in high school. Not that I didn't think I was in love with my girlfriend, just that my parents were correct... it DID limit my social life to one girl when there were actually several I would have enjoyed dating if I wasn't 'going steady.'

Je ne regrette rien! (as someone once said!)
Closing one door often opens another one - and a poor choice of wife/husband makes you a much better partner the 2nd time around! |

Waiting over 20 hours before I finally screamed "yes" to the epidural.
In a more serious note: Not writing down all the hilarious/adorable things my kiddoes have said and not taking enough pictures/videos. |

Not saying "[profane language edit]" to the right people, and saying "I CARE ABOUT YOU" to the wrong ones.-

My biggest regret is that in the hustle and bustle of everyday living, that I
did not make time to continue with my oil painting pursuits. Cheers |
