If you could go back in time..(thread compliments of derek7m)

There is one regret that I always think about. I dated this girl in high school and we just got along really well. Nothing much game of it but years later we ran into each other and hit off again. Sparks flying. It was great. She was still the same person, only more mature. She was so kind to me, so good to me, and I took it for granted. Didnt see what I had in my hands. I think i sort of turned her into some toy for my sexual pleasure and gratification and she liked it but she was looking for more and I was just a young man of about 20 and too stupid to know what was taking shape and what I could have for myself today. She is now married to a guy who literally has 1 leg, is a total jerk off, and has 2 kids. I always think of her. We even stayed friend for awhile till her husband got insecure (rightfully so...id have snatched her away) and told her she cant be around me or talk to me ever again. At first I was nice about it...i told her i understood and that it would be okay and she would be a great wife and just trying to console her. I didnt really understand that it would be a final goodbye so I played it off as cool as I could. It really was upsetting but I didnt want her to get all worked up.

Years later I look back on that day and I should have fought. I should have tried. I look back and Im really angry about it. I sometimes see her in a store and she keeps her head down and walks past me. The things we let go of unknowingly.

I had 5 felony counts of burglary as a juvie.
Ive beaten people up badly. Sometimes with no real reason, one of which I really have no idea if he is alive or dead after what I did and the shape I left him in.
Ive stolen things.
Im done drugs.

And im 23 now, with my nose clean, my own business. I have a good life now. I stay out of trouble and contribute more to society than I take away these days.

But i dont regret any of that. Just her.

I've done the same with a special girl. We give up too easy out of pride and embarrassment of being shot down.

Would you want to be with a girl who would leave a guy for you?

It's complicated.

She went on with another guy, but she was not happy, she was just trying to move on to forget me. She was not with him cause she loved him, she still loved me.

I was just too stubborn to ask her to come back.
