If I could go back in time I would focus far more of love. Well not just love, I did that already. I mean I would focus on all things I now understand that go into a relationship. I would also look at marriage far differently than I did the first time around.
Maybe I say this because my career looks great on paper and I make good money. I do know it does not count for much for me.
Nope...no regrets at all. I'd do it the same way if I had a "do-over".
I went to school and got my degree, got married, had our family and stayed home until they were all in school full-time. Now I'm back at work and the process of getting back into the workforce after a 13yr hiatus was easy-peasy for me.
You're smart... I had no doubts is was easy-peasy for you.......
You remind me of another poster MsAnnthrope.......
She had the same man hating issues....
Excuse me?
Where did I say I "hate" men?
I said I didn't want to live with one and I find them generally speaking quite boring company, but I certainly do not "hate" them.
I feel about men as I feel about horses...yes all very nice in the paddock but I don't want to ride it or feed it thanks.
Kind of...neutral...not "hating" so stop inventing trouble or borrowing offence.
I also find a lot of women as tedious as hell by the way, but as I'm straight and this is the "relationships" forum, it stands to reason I would only offer my opinion on the company of the opposite sex to myself.
No regrets here. As a woman who 20 years ago chose love over her career, I ended up with the greatest love of my life, my daughter.
When I no longer had either marriage or career, I focused the past 18 years on raising her. The way I see it, it is how my life was meant to be, the choices I made gave me experience and memories that I never would have had. My career would never have done anything in comparison.
Live your life forward, don't look back because that just causes bitterness, and who needs that?
I'd say career. I regret that while with my ex and attending school, I was offered and declined a VA scholarship that would have paid 100% of my tuition plus given me a monthly living stipend, in exchange for signing a contract to work for them for 2 years after I graduated. I turned it down because I was afraid they might make me work at a hospital far from my bf (we lived together). So instead I ended up with student loans it took me more than 10 years to pay off, and the relationship ended anyway.
wow some of the lamest threads are still on fire and this ones already dead lol. Thanks to those who contributed though enjoyed reading your comments.
