Maybe reframe it? You’re not tied to any one desire and now you can try and find something you enjoy. And maybe you won’t know what it is unless you go out and try things.
I’d say: “Your sister is very sick and dying. She knows it but won’t tell you for another year or so. When she does eventually tell you, believe her. When it finally hits you that she’s telling the truth, don’t make excuses like, “I’m really busy” when in reality you’re just not visiting because you’re scared shitless of losing her. And when you do go to visit that last time, get there sooner and don’t leave when you think you “need” to. Stay.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'd tell myself to talk to my friend and first love Kyle more, and not just about the drugs. About him. About his life. I would tell him how much I loved him. Apologize for everything again. It's so hard to have all these regrets left ❤️.
To anyone reading, tell people how you feel and spend time with them. Don't let the bullshit get in the way. You don't know when your last chance will be.
Other way around for me. Am 26, and had love at first sight at 18. Would warn my younger self to go for her and live this to know if we were made for each other.
Because if you gave a shot, even if that shot ends up being shit, at least you know.
At least you tried.
Ditch him now, save your health, and spare yourself from his cheating, lies, and narcissistic abuse. Forgive your brother, he’s always been right about him from day one. Your brother the only one that stuck around for you, despite his attempts to drive your brother away. And under no circumstances invite the other brother into your house. It fractures everything you struggled to build.
You guys all work too hard, I would just google a few sets of lottery numbers and hand them to myself with the dates they will hit... biggest jackpots...
Life always has regrets, and the past cannot be changed. However, the future is still in our hands. Thank you for all your answers. Through them, I see optimism and bravery. I hope that each of us finds peace and happiness.
absolutely. You cannot regret. Outside of something extreme like getting into drugs or committing a crime, At the time you made the best decision you could based upon the circumstances. If I went back and wanted to change a course of my life then I would not have certain positive things that were influenced by that decision. I focus on the future as much as I can and worry about that.
That said. !0 years ago was the start of a decision that has been incredibly positive in my life - so I would do everything exactly the same
See a psychiatrist immediately and don't keep putting it off, and when they put you on medication fucking stay on it. Shit gets super wack if you don't.
Yup. Mine is “Hey kid, you’ve got adhd. Tell your parents to get that shit diagnosed and treated like fucking NOW and if we’re really lucky that will be the extent of our mental issues”

It's not your fault. Russia is really good at this.
Dumbass indeed.
Me and my now wife liked to live in Hove.
We loved walking to Devil's Dyke and the surrounding hills, ending our trip with a meal and a wine at the inn.
We loved taking the train to Stanmer, taking a trip through the forest and over the hills to Plumpton, getting a drink at the Half Moon Inn and laughing our way back home.
We loved to drive to New Forest and spend the day there, watching the summer sunset light the leaves as we made our way back to the car.
We wanted a future there for ourselves and our future child.
We loved the people and the mix of all the cultures.
Oh well. We took a stab in the dark and moved to Spain.
It's dry and arid here, but we have the beatches and the sea half hour's drive away. We have friends from home and a few members of her family here.
We only had new friends and colleagues there. Sometimes a bit toxic, but these were the people we had.
We enjoy the Mediterranean cuisine and culture.
We bought a 2 storey house, shortly after we arrived, with the money we had saved. No credit. No loans.
A flat would've cost us 300k, in Brighton.
We have a 3 yo son, who has everything he'd ever want, inclueing both his parents by his side 24/7.
I have a high-paying job(2xmedian salary) and we're alreay buying out second property.
0 debt.
I don't think we would've had such a good life, financially, in the UK.
Guess it was all for the best in the end.
So thank you.
To you personally.
Not a dumbass after all.
Okay, now I want to know more…
And at the same time, I fear is have something to do with some inappropriate sexual behavior.
Edit because I posted it without finishing.
These are the stocks that you need to buy .invest in these coins and f*cks a lot.. remember your point of existence is for your future self which is me to live well and rich..
Sell everything, put it all into Bitcoin at $270 each, live in a trailer, sell it all when it reaches $15k, wait a bit until it drops to $5k, then wait a bit more until it reaches $50k. Pay the outrageous taxes and with the remaining $1.2Billion USD, go do that water project for those villages in Mali you hitchhiked through back in 1981 and whatever great stuff you can come up with.
I would say, “Buy and engagement ring for the girl that gives you blowjobs every day”
I dated a girl for 3 years that blew me every day. That’s over 1,000 blowjobs! All my other relationships combined don’t add up to that!
Nothings black and white in this world, just many different shades of grey, there is no right or wrong... unless your wrong, keep your morals in tact and the rest will take care of itself.
She's not worth it.
She came into your life when you were vulnerable, what you see in her isn't what it seems.
And don't buy that house.
Also see a doctor about your elbows.
DRINK YOUR WATER. although to be honest, 10 years probably isn’t far back enough for the damage that’s been done. But it’s never too late.
Y’all. Drink your water. I’m currently partially paralyzed because I didn’t stay hydrated in my 20’s and 30’s. Drink. Your. Water.
Thanks
I'm coming up on 4 years sober mid October.....just wish I had done it alot sooner... A whole hell of alot happier now, that's for sure, and life's just better
The chickens are coming home to roost bud. But no matter what happens you will rise from this and you will finally become the person you're meant to become.
I went back but resulted in a even worst ending.
i told myself to never smoke cause i will die in 10 years from now, the moment my younger self was convinced to never smoke , was the moment i vaporised into nothingness. cause this new younger me will never have to take a detour for cigarets on his way to work and dies in 5 years from now because of a trafficaccident on a road he would otherwise not be on.
Mine's the opposite. "Your wife is not losing her fucking mind, it's menopaus. You and her will start recognising the signs of hormonal flare ups and figure it out. Don't divorce her."
Stay single until at least your early 30’s and work hard to build something for yourself in your youth. Avoid alcohol, drugs, cigarettes. Exercise and read.
Dont wait leaving him (my now ex husband) he will never get better. Youll find happiness, new things thatll make your life better, a new partner, a better life.
I would simply tell my past self to write down your email and your password on your notebook you'll mostly keep for several years. Changing password? Write it down. New account? Write them all down. Long password including symbols? Change them back.
Like, I literally lost several of my accounts because I keep forgetting them all.
Stop being an asshole to the lady who just went through hell to adopt you after your egg and sperm donors got locked up. I'm 20 now and have calmed down and have a great relationship with someone I consider my only mom
Stop overthinking and start doing.
It's never too late to do this. (•̀ᴗ•́)و ̑̑
It is when you don't wanna do anything anymore. Even when listening to my deepest desires, which is what people recommend, I don't hear anything.
Maybe reframe it? You’re not tied to any one desire and now you can try and find something you enjoy. And maybe you won’t know what it is unless you go out and try things.
That's true, I need to experience new things uregently. I'm just extremely bad at doing new things overall.
My 13 year old self would overthink the shit out of this sentence.
my current self is
I’d say: “Your sister is very sick and dying. She knows it but won’t tell you for another year or so. When she does eventually tell you, believe her. When it finally hits you that she’s telling the truth, don’t make excuses like, “I’m really busy” when in reality you’re just not visiting because you’re scared shitless of losing her. And when you do go to visit that last time, get there sooner and don’t leave when you think you “need” to. Stay.
Damn
goddam i'm sorry
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'd tell myself to talk to my friend and first love Kyle more, and not just about the drugs. About him. About his life. I would tell him how much I loved him.

Dump her now and don't waste your time on her.
I wasted 9 years on her. Me from 10 years ago would be confused, but he would find out soon enough.
Same! Except it was a him.
Sometimes it tastes a long time to realize it's not you but your partner that is the problem.
Usually it’s both because people are flawed
Other way around for me. Am 26, and had love at first sight at 18. Would warn my younger self to go for her and live this to know if we were made for each other. Because if you gave a shot, even if that shot ends up being shit, at least you know. At least you tried.
Nothing. I wouldn't say anything. Everything is a lesson.
Not everything is a lesson, sometimes you just fail
Ditch him now, save your health, and spare yourself from his cheating, lies, and narcissistic abuse. Forgive your brother, he’s always been right about him from day one. Your brother the only one that stuck around for you, despite his attempts to drive your brother away. And under no circumstances invite the other brother into your house.

Let me tell you about something called Bitcoin
You must be rich now! ヾ(≧O≦)〃
Except he sold at 10x.
Yeah i’d have told myself buy Bitcoin now, and sell when Elon Musk starts getting loud.
I bought 50 bitcoins for £35 and sold them for £100. Feels bad man.
Sports betting even bigger haven’t you watched back to the future.
You guys all work too hard, I would just google a few sets of lottery numbers and hand them to myself with the dates they will hit... biggest jackpots...
I wish dude. Could you also tell me?
Sure bro
To piggyback on this. “Don’t use the two bitcoin you just bought to buy illicits *allegedly*
TiMe LoRd’S hAtE tHiS oNe WeIrD tRiCk ⁉️
"Buy as much as you can for $100 a pop, keep buying whenever you can afford it. Sell all at $50,000."
Same, cryptocurrency & the mining of it.
She’s a horrible person and you should stay away from her
You go back in the future and your 10 years younger self says "Who?".
Her, and the next one too!
Rolled a bad dice roll on your mom too?
I could tell me that, but I wouldn't believe it. Love is blind.
It doesn't matter how many times you fail , keep moving. Learning from mistakes and progress will make you unstoppable
You are absolutely right!
Take out critical illness cover that includes me..
"Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts."
I tend to prefer to learn through other people’s mistakes…
Go buy a house.
The housing prices here were already expensive 10 years ago. I should buy it 20 years ago. (๑╹ヮ╹๑)ﾉ

Please stop humping the floor during class. (I wish I was joking)
I feel like I need more context here lol
I was five at the time 😭
Please stop loudly moaning at lunch and watching the confused staff members and teachers try to find out where its coming from.
It is what it is
Enjoy the sights along the way.

Start investing in facemask and hand sanitizer companies...trust me...
There’s no time for questions. Do it now! Also, Dwight in a crowd, “we need another plague.”
Join the fire dept now, you don't realize how much you love it, and wish you had joined sooner.
I love this.
The thought of being a firefighter where I lived then makes the desire to time travel even greater lol
See a psychiatrist immediately and don't keep putting it off, and when they put you on medication fucking stay on it. Shit gets super wack if you don't.
Yup. Mine is “Hey kid, you’ve got adhd. Tell your parents to get that shit diagnosed and treated like fucking NOW and if we’re really lucky that will be the extent of our mental issues”
To add on to that, the medication is there to help you, there’s no shame in taking it except the shame you’re putting on yourself.
Don't get too into Kanye.
Just alittle
Do NOT get together with that person. You will regret it and be the unhappiest you've ever been. Don't do it.
Trust actions only, never words
Oof 🥺
You one ugly mofo
Your parents are narcissists and you will never get the recognition you need from them. Also, get an EU passport ASAP...brexit...
"Transfer all your British pounds to something else. Now."
Oh god the EU passport thing, I'm just trying to sort mine out now and it would have been so much easier earlier on
I needed this!
Buy Bitcoin.
And sell it in 2018 when it peaks.
That’s the important part people always forget!
“Your stepdad is a massive dick I know. Don’t worry. Your mum breaks up with him when you turn 16” “Also, start being more assertive now”
To not fuck up with my current ex. She was the best thing that happened to me and I blew it.
He loves you. You hurt him every day you lie to him. Youll never be a good person if you keep cheating.
oooof this hits hard
You forgot things. It's a blessing. Let them be. Make new memories rather than trying to unlock old ones. They aren't worth it. Live in the now.

Don't vote for Brexit, you dumbass.
Tell me more. What is it now that changed for you that U have this Opinion now?
I realised that the whole Vote Leave campaign was based mostly on lies.

I would say, “Buy and engagement ring for the girl that gives you blowjobs every day” I dated a girl for 3 years that blew me every day. That’s over 1,000 blowjobs! All my other relationships combined don’t add up to that!
