Regrets... yes I have my share I am not proud of. But my main regret is not the things I have done but the things I did not do. This is our only life live it the way you want.

I regret listening to all the naysayers that told me it was not possible and I was being foolish. I regret most listening to them and believing them.. I regret not having the backbone and strength to march forward.

Great men/women overcame this issue. Once you let go you have everything. This is a dangerous philosophy and the powers that be will do their best to make you believe you will fail and are wrong. Simply a pipe dream.

Live your life as it is your only one because it probably is. Go across the world to someone you feel for. Start a army or spread chaos. What is the worst that will happen if you fail in your pursue your desires? They may laugh at you? You might fail but if you do not try you already failed.

They are gonna laugh anyways and if you succeed they will try and take it apart. Your biggest success is living the life you want without them. They know this and will hate you for it. They might even murder you for it. But, you are gonna die anyways.

Let your success kill them internally. They will envy you for doing what they did not have the courage to do as they rot in a a wasted life.

Hail Satan. ZB

The Great One once said, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take", which might work for Hockey, and is a solid point, but basketball players can fuck up the momentum if they start jacking up a bunch of low percentage shots from the floor.  Success comes working it inside and collapsing the defense so you can kick it out for an open 3 pointer.

While I'm not defending Carrie's Mom, sometimes it pays to mix "They're all gonna laugh at you" with "spineless self interest."

Zach, can't disagree. I can honestly say I have no regrets, as any changes would result in a different now, and I like my now very much. Yet, I often reflect on the things I did not do but could have done and wonder..


AK,


Did that back in 1998, while it was still a REALLY strange thing to do. Did it, experienced it..it lasted for about 3 months, worth it.


CM,


Reads as an excuse to not act. Weak sauce.

The Newly Give-a-fuck Dread, 


Absolutely, but some cunt wants me to act, and stagnating the bitch is more fun.

Boring.

Boring is an apt term...  

But I'm a bitter prick, and I think this bitch has seen too many John Hughes movies.  Plus, I dont much feel like placating some ultimately faceless bitch and her need to illustrate something.

Was that the guy who co-produced 101 Dalmatians? This movie is awesome and Glenn Close absolutely rocks. But I can understand why you don't want to have anything to do with it. Who would house so many refugee dogs?


But seriously, life isn't only about fulfilling your desires. Set yourself some goals and strive to achieve them. It's important that the goals are realistic. I can keep dreaming about becoming an opera singer and even try to fulfill my dreams but if I have no talent for singing, then that would be a fruitless and pointless activity and a waste of time.

Like how olympic gymnasts are all chipmunks.

You don't house them, there are other uses for an excess of dogs.

I see we are now into the macabre.


An internet romance. True story.


Some dude here in Poland pretended to be a girl online. For six years he corresponded with another autistic guy who immediately fell in love with him/her. He believed his lover when he kept sending him fake photos. One day, he decided he couldn't live without his sweetheart anymore, he somehow tracked him down, bought flowers and a ring and appeared at his doorstep.


What was his surprise when instead of a young beautiful girl, he saw a dude! In shock and fury, he knocked him down, grabbed a knife and stabbed him several times. The victim died, he got arrested but the judge well...


He gave the man a mild sentence on the grounds he was nuts and the whole trick proved too stressful to him.


It doesn't harm to be careful about the virtual relationships. Don't take unnecessary risks.

"Don't take unnecessary risks."


How sad for you if you live by this particular mantra. I use the word "live" in the loosest possible context...

No need to worry, dude. I'm perfectly satisfied with my life, at least at the moment. My reply should be taken together with the context. If Zach regularly gets into troubles because of silly girlfriends, then perhaps he should take Canis' advice and bore them to death with his "There is apathy for that."

This is just a movie, AK.

It's better to be realistic than keep fooling yourself. At least, this is what I think. I see that movie theme as an attempt to escape harsh, albeit unavoidable reality, instead of learning to confront and eventually accept it.

There is also a hierarchy of goals and values. I would rather focus on that which is important to me. All else is a distraction.

Apathy is my solution... If you have no expectation the baseline for what brings you gratification  drops considerably and even drifts into vindictive behavior.

And who says bitches dont find the "fuck the world" guy interesting?

But am I talking about eschewing all life's pleasures? I don't think we are on the same page. I'm talking about discrimination and hierarchy of things. What is really important to you? Are you ready to sacrifice something to realize your goals or do you seek immediate gratification? 


It's like in this myth about Daedalus and Icarus and who you would rather identify with. The lamp is a distraction to the moth.

Some find him interesting. Most find him no fun to play with. 
Exactly.

Which makes it especially perplexing when bitches still want to. The hypothetical low self esteem of the apathetic is exceeded only by that of the one who likes the, "how to lose a bitch in 10 ways" routine.

AK, I'm not talking about online dating only. I guess that depends. If you're desperate to find a partner, go for it. But if you don't care, taking that risk is unnecessary.


Let me give you a hypothetical example to explain what I mean.


Let's say I have a husband whom I love and kids. We've spent years together. Let's say it's not an open relationship. One day I meet some charming guy. Will I jump at the opportunity to have a blissful love affair with him (after all it's just a couple of nights) or do I resist his charm and stay loyal to my husband?


And now the true story from my work.


A dumbass son with his dumbass wife visited his old and sick mother.


Mom, we will take you to the park. Look how beautiful the weather is.


No no. I can't. I don't feel well.


Mom come on. You must try. You must move. Go outside to become healthy again.


I can't. Leave me alone. I'm not all right.


Mom you go to the park with us. End of discussion.


 No, I'm not going anywhere. I'm sick.


I'm explaining to the guy that the mother is too weak to go outside. That he has to be patient because the rehabilitation will last for a while.


But it's like talking to the fucking wall. Finally, he's yelling at me:


It's your fault. You aren't doing anything to help her.


And turning to his mother, he shouts at her:


Mom, you are like the father, always sick and complaining. I can't stand it anymore! I won't be coming anymore!


Anyway, near the evening he came up to me apologizing for his outburst and explaining that the whole thing has proven to be too much to him.


So much for the old age and suffering. Sometimes you have to take life as it is.

As for the missed opportunities, whenever you make some choice, you miss some opportunity in favor of the other. What would have happened if I had chosen this way instead of that way? It could have turned out to be for the better or worse. But is there a point in dwelling over it?

Some really like the challenge. What's a pussy cat to do with a dead mouse, anyhow?
Leave it to the person who feeds them to hold it for later.



Quote from AK47 

I know women who love to be treated like garbage, but even they get tedious and boring. It takes effort to do anything you're not inclined to do - this includes insulting and ignoring people because they wouldn't have it any other way. 


But that's a whole separate (and conceivably interesting) topic.


The gist, at least what I got form the OP is basically that one's greatest regrets will always be with regard to the things they haven't done - for whatever reason.

Strange phonomenon, and not a selling point. Only abandoned fire station babies and ones that lost their virginity to their step-father have that damage. 


Seriously though, regrets are necessary, and can be erradicated. Only once in life did I get the opportunity to correct a mistake I once made. Instead of punching the pillow of lamemtation I succeeded in drawing a "second round", and like Delbert Grady, I feel I "corrected" the bitch. I did everything i wish i did the first time.  


The most regretable things are always that of cowardess.  In my case it was, "Why the fuck did I even care about social shaming or gossip?  I fell into a trap of thinking I needed to guard my reputation at all cost through some Machiavellian will to power.  (circa 2011)


In the end "attainment" came through the inverse. Doing my best to capture that essence of the carnival barker.


I havent gotten anywhere with it, but I dont punch my pillows over regret, as that has switched to annoyance.

I don't repent for the bad things people say I have committed, I don't regret for the good and nice things I have not done; if I would have the opportunity  to live millions of lives  and years ahead of me, I would gladly lived the life I am enjoying now, a life influenced by the underworld which is clearer than the self-deceived heavenly life.
