I regret putting my first dog to sleep. We should have tried harder. That was 17 years ago, and it still haunts me and brings tears to my eyes. Will not repeat this mistake.
But certainly a big part of love is not wanting to see them suffer!
Capt Dan...I allowed myself to be talked into believing she was suffering. Now I know better. In this circumstance, she wasn't really suffering (not in pain or altered mental status). She was just...old and grossly and inconveniently incapacitated. The only way I can forgive myself is to remember I was just a kid and grown-ups were pushing for this decision.
averagejoe76, I am so with you. I totally long for the cool, fun, younger version of me. Now I am old and boring and stodgy and calculate every risk. LAME!

Awwwww I'm in the same situation. My dog was put to sleep 3 years ago ( not nearly as long as you) but I still miss him so much
I've done many foolish things but I do believe in the butterfly effect and if I changed even the smallest of details I'm sure I wouldn't be where I am today. My life isn't perfect but I like it and the people in it.
my deepest regret is not saving money and buying a home sooner. I'm starting to look for a home, but wish I had done it sooner when I had the extra money. I love to travel, so I took trips instead of save money!!!
the next deepest is maybe I should have tried working things out with my ex-fiance.

If you had bought earlier, you'd probably be upside-down on your mortgage. The market is just now correcting. You want today's home prices, not the ones from a few years back. Just sayin'...
I regret not MAKING my daughters try to maintain some sort of relationship with thier biological mother. It just tears my insides up to hear the girls say things like " if she really loved us back then she would have chosen us instead of the drugs." Or to not have thier mom with them or at least talk to them on the holidays. It isnt easy to tell my ex that her girls dont want to see her or speak to her. So i think i would have set up some sort of visiting arrangement when they were little. Maybe then the girls wouldnt feel that thier mom abandoned them. Its just that back then I had to decide which was worse. Not seeing thier mom or seeing her totally wasted all the time. I chose to not let the girls see her that way. In some ways i still dont know if i made the right decision.
as someone who along with their older brother has 0 relationship with their mother becasue she is worthless, I wouldnt regret it if I were you. I wish my mom was normal and not a piece of **** but I can't change that and want nothing to do with her.
As for having trouble telling your ex they dont want to speak to her- it sounds like she doesnt deserve to have them in her life. I would be concerned with my daughters if I were you and not whether or not a ****ty mother is upset because of a situation that she created.
thanks! but I would have possibly been able to pay it off sooner, had I bought a while ago, I was working tons and had more "disposable" income. now with the economy, I just hope I can find a job!!!
