I think the choices I've made in my life have led me to where I'm at right now. I'm not sure I'd appreciate and value certain things if I had made different choices in the past.

Agreed. Even though there are time's I wish I could go back say 20 be able to spend the last 20 with my current Gf. Then again perhaps it wouldn't of worked out & it wasn't out time. Maybe we were supposed to learn something that we didn't know before.
Better communication with one particular partner would have been a good idea. But in retrospect, I'm not sure I'd change anything. I'm fairly content as the person I am now, and those good AND bad memories helped shape me.
I wouldn't do anything about my previous relationships. The mistakes made, whether mine or not, happened for a reason.
What I wished I could do is go back to HS and tell a girl what I felt about her. So many chances I let slip by with that girl. Relationship wise, not sex.
Now she's married and happy, which is what matters.
1. Would have focused less on academics at college (very *long* story, but certain life circumstances at the time forced me to focus almost solely on academics, and at the exclusion of all else), and spent more time finding a marriage-minded, LTR-style relationship, even if my academics had suffered as a result.
2. Not gotten involved in very first relationship (with a psychotic, emotionally-abusive sociopath). Wish I could have avoided that horrific episode entirely. Still feel utter revulsion to this day, when I think about it. Wish I would have ran for the hills, instead.
3. Not hired a dating coach for a little over a year, who completely ripped me off, didn't deliver anything concrete at all except #2 above, and used psychological tricks and traps to keep me as a paying customer as long as she did.

Was she hot? If so, shame on you for not nailing her.
