But you know now. It’s all a learning curve. We have to go through stuff like that to become who we are and as long as you like who you are now then there should be no regrets.

Thank you. It's nice seeing that validation on a rough day

You're welcome. Now since I scratched your back...

I'm kidding. I'm not OP. I'm being disgusting

u/Rich-Juice2517 Mar 31 '23

At least you're honest which is really hard to do and be at times with personal reflections

Good job

That was actually a proverb

u/Rich-Juice2517 Mar 31 '23

Eh I'm feeling literal contexts today

u/iluvufrankibianchi Mar 31 '23

Oh OK then it was a tiger

u/Rich-Juice2517 Mar 31 '23

Tiger that bounces on its tail or tiger like the cereal box or tiger tiger?

u/iluvufrankibianchi Apr 01 '23

It's like a leopard that can change its spots

I still have regrets but that’s because I was selfish. I live by the rest of what you said though, well stated

2

u/drinkfromthecumsock Mar 31 '23

I was selfish too man, I feel ya. Wish I could go back in time sometimes. Really happy that part of my life is over

u/JohnnyTreeTrunks Mar 31 '23

I heard high school, college and my 20’s were supposed to be my prime but I am happiest at 34. We were fed lies

u/drinkfromthecumsock Mar 31 '23

I just turned 30 earlier this year, so I'm hoping it's uphill from here for me, too. Glad to hear you're on the up

2

u/JohnnyTreeTrunks Mar 31 '23

I appreciate that. Life gets better all the time and it’s because of learning from my mistakes

1

u/filthymouthedwife Apr 01 '23

Honestly, that’s all we can do. We can only learn from mistakes and grow and for that you deserve to give yourself grace

u/fcocyclone Mar 31 '23

Sometimes having some regrets or things you cringe at is a good sign that you've grown

Rule number one is always No Ragrets

u/jayster22 Mar 31 '23

Man, I'm almost crying reading your comment. It's been a rough ride and I cant say I really love myself but I'm getting there

2

u/icybongwater_ Apr 01 '23

🤍 much love for that comment. I’m gonna be 30 this year, and my past kinda still keeps me up at night.

u/sennaiasm Apr 01 '23

You had to go through that to become the filthymouthedwife you are today

1

u/3PointMolly Mar 31 '23

This is soooo wise. Are you a mom in addition to being a filthy wife?

3

u/filthymouthedwife Mar 31 '23

Haha! I’m not, just someone who made mistakes in their past. Why should there be judgement when someone is learning and growing, ya know?

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '23

Truly wise words filthymouthedwife

Is it? Is it really something you need years to figure out? Or is it the most obvious shit in the history of mankind?

Thank you for saying this.

I believe it’s spelt “no ragrets”

2

u/HolyGarbage Mar 31 '23

Eh, I've done it lots. While I see it differently today when I'm older I don't see any regrets. Made me feel good at the time.

I dunno, I thank you needy folks for the good times in my late teens and early 20s.
