Second grade.
I was in a school for the gifted from pre-school through 1st, and I was the cool kid of the class. Everyone loved me, kids and teachers alike. Then my parents moved in second grade, and I was not part of the cool "clique" in the new school. It was a catholic school and the kids there are just vicious. I was now the outcast/nerd/loser. I was the sensitive kid that the other boys enjoyed harassing until literal tears fell. Then there was even more mocking for that. I carried this loser/outcast label through the eighth grade, and it has defined my entire life. If I had not transferred to that school, or if I had done something differently and been accepted into the cliques, then I truly believe my life would be a massive success. Who knows what that something would be? But, I doubt I could have done anything "right" for those kids. I believe if that school year had gone differently, I would still be married, I would be employed, and I wouldn't be homeless. I bum a couch from my friend who doesn't charge me rent, because he won't let me freeze/starve. I help out when I can, but it's not much.
Anyway... second grade is when my life turned, and it has gone downhill ever since.
The moment humans tried eating bananas, I would make sure that didn't happen.
I wouldn't mind reliving my freshman year. I'd stand up for myself. I would listen to myself and not listen to the *******ized beliefs of my classmates and their ugly and disgusting ideas on social etiquette.
Perhaps then I could be proud of myself.
"Damn Rota, seriously damn. Here i am going to Hypnotize you....

I would probably go back to roundabout grade one. In grade one, all of my best friends were guys. We hung out at school, went over to each others houses, etc. etc.
Now, since all my best friends were guys back then, and were for the next three years or so, I never wore dresses, took part in more femenine activities or even had my hair long. I beleive that if I had been friends with girls back then, my entire outlook on life would be completely different.
For example, To this day, I dislike dresses. My favourite type of clothes are jeans, short shorts, tee shirts, and hoodies. I also can't walk in heels. In addition, even though my hair is somewhat long, I usually keep it held back.
The one good thing that came from always being such good friends with guys is that I know how to act around them to appeal to their better nature.
So I'm not entirely sure If my friendships in grade one (which carried through to about grade five by the way,) were a good thing or a bad thing. I'm curious to know how life wouldve turned out if it had been otherwise.
very good thread. JOJ plus rep
The things that are the worst in my life are the things I dont have a choice in, I cant regret it because I was forced to do it, there was no way to stop the uhh events...
Well, if I could turn back time?... if I could find a way? I'd take back all the words that have hurt you, and you'd stay. :)
...but seriously... 1st marriage... wouldn't have happened.
hmmm, well if i could change any time in my life it would be when I was 4-5 years old when I was molested, by my babysitters son he was about 35 years old I think. But thinking back there really wasnt anything I could have done to stop it. It did shape my life because I never fully trusted anyone with anything. Which forced me to mature faster as a kid. I never asked anyone for help I dealt with problems by myself and only recently I accepted what had happened. To this day I wonder what kind of a person would I have been if this never happened. My mom and my family dont know about this and I prefer to keep it that way. I talked with my closests friends about it and they have helped me overcome it and not let it define the rest of my life.
lol, that was a funny post DC.....:)
This thread depresses me too much now. I'm out. Cya.
This Thread is Slightly depressing, But i fully support it because I know from personal experience getting your feelings down on paper, or on a post gives the person the feeling of weight being lifted off their chest.
Elusive - Im sorry for the acts of someone who u should have been able to trust, and I would never trust anyone else either. And im not attempting to understand the emotions u have had to deal with all your life but I can say I feel ur pain with not being able to talk about your feelings openly with ur parents or anyone else u need to.
Rota - Kids can be cruel, but something to look up at is I bet that once those kids became adults, real life hit them like a sack of bricks. And u have experiences that u may not think helps u, but its something they will never have and soon will wish they did. U have Humility, which they probably still do not.
Something I would change in my life, would probably be back in Elementary school, I was one of the popular Kids all the way up to 5th. At my school, 5th and 6th grade is in a separate building, which combines all the graduated kids from the 3 elementary schools into one building. My Mistake was still trying to be friends with everyone, but not actually having a Best Friend. So even tho I have many friends in school, I never had a best friend till 2 years ago when I was a freshman. Thats when I met my to this day Best Friend. But I regret not doing the things kids do at that age with their best friends, hanging out all the time, doing fun stuff. But im not sure I would change that because if I did have a best friend while i was growing up, I might not have became friends with my Best Friend now, and I would not like that.
If I had a chance 2 go back in time, it would be to the day of the prom.....2 days before, My girl dumped me, only 2 go out with my Best friend to make me jelous.......From there I got so angry that during the dance I punched him straight in the face......I lost a friendship that was priceless....all was forgiven though, but it still haunts me 2 this day.....
I should have buried that last one a bit deeper but it was getting light and I needed to get out of there fast. I can't go back there now because someone might see me and that would be bad. If only I had taken a pick-axe with me, or picked a spot where the ground was softer....
.................ummmm.....ok? :confused:
First I am very bad with names....
That leads to my story
I had a shot with a girl who was a gymnast. She worked at a local pool hall racking up the balls (no lie)
Her and I had this electricity (at least I thought) and one night I asked her out.... she said ask me again tomorrow but you must call me by name.
well I didn't go there the next day and she was off the following 2 days
On the fourth day I returned only I couldn't remember her name.
she turned and walked away, and never spoke to me since......
so that is the day I would like to go back to and will remember her name even if it killed me
Nothing wrong with that. I'm still really good friends with some guys. We talk and have a great time. Texting one now actually. He's tryin to convince me to go cliff diving lol.
No worries, give it a year or two and your sister won't just be friends with them. All of her guy friends will start seeing her different, trust me.
I had a puppy once.
I wish I hadn't, it gave me indigestion all night.
This thread got me thinking about the past and the things I have and have not done.
I came to realise that I would never get to ride through Paris in a sports-car, with the top down and the warm wind in my hair.

Now I am sad. :(
If I could go back in time, I'd probably go back to my junior/senior year in high school and actually put a little bit of effort into school so I might've actually gotten into the school I wanted to go to, not get stuck at a school that would put me in a situation that I got super depressed, couldn't focus on school, and then end up not going back.
The moment I met Chika!! That woman was poison!!! Fantastic love/hate relationship with loads of mistrust, lies and the hottest most passionate "bedroom" activites I have ever had. I literally kept gatorade with me at all times when we went at it because the sweat dripping sessions were no less than 2 hours, 3 hours was normal... and I needed to keep myself hydrated because the sweat poured off us like a ship in rough seas.
Completely emotionally unstable married with children woman who turned my once "normal" life upside down. I was young and dumb. My god man, was that a roller coaster ride.... my head is STILL spinning from it.....
Boy did that woman do a number on my head.... If I could do it over again I would have broke up with her long before things got crazy....
People, if someone tells you "I don't like my husband/wife and I want to get divorced!" Then tell that person to FIRST get divorced, then come talk to you.
I was always careful not to fight in school. This one kid in school that hated my guts because I told his gf ( a friend of mine ) that he was cheating on her and how to catch him in the act and when. In school one day he comes up to me poking me in the chest, he was about a foot shorter than me. I should have beat the crap out of him right then and there, instead I laughed at him. ( he did look funny while doing it thought lol )
It's a toss-up for me.
Go back to the day I decided to get out of the Marines and change my mind to stay in. I had some of the best experiences in my life while there, and it was something I knew and was good at. I left because I had a falling out with someone. But then I wouldn't have met the wonderful girl I have now.
Or go back to the day I went to college in Texas. If I never went for those two disasterous years, I wouldn't be in debt, have a warrent out for my arrest, and have the bitterness of a broken engagement. But then, I would be a completely different person also since those two years also changed me profoundly.
As much as I would love to go back in time and change many mistakes I have made in life and many bad decisions. I wouldn't actually change a thing. Because everything I did and every decision I made led me to meet the people I have and make the friends I did. Every decision made it possible for me to learn a great deal in life and I probably would not have my kids if it wasn't for all those bad decisions along the way.
