Everything.

Everything I've ever done.
It's a wonder I'm not dead

>>2364778
Be more specific, I want to relate to you for some reason.

>I regret not getting my drivers licence earlier in life (I'm 21 and only getting my learners now).
Why do you regret that? Not like you needed to drive anywhere.

>I regret not getting my drivers licence earlier in life (I'm 21 and only getting my learners now).

Same here, mostly. I already have a learner's (all you have to do is take a written test, after all), but getting the actual licence is problematic. I mean, it's not like I know anyone who can teach me.

I'm 22 and never needed a driver's license.
Like hell I'm going to pay for insurance.

I have been in my house for the past year, 3 months and 14 days.

I never leave because I have no friends anymore, I dropped out of my school and they all moved or forgot about me....

My parents pay for my apartment and the only thing I have to look forward to is a new batch coming out...

I still dont have my license either. I'm 19, 20 in 2 months.

I smoke, But they are brought to me by my mother which is somewhat embarrassing.

I wish I was man enough to drink or do drugs, The escape from my sad life would be a relief.

I'll be 20 next Friday and have my Learners, but I don't really want to drive because I don't feel like paying insurance and gas, so I'm not bothering with the road test.

>>2364789
It makes me feel like a loser when kids around me get theirs at 16.

No, it's not like I needed to drive anywhere, but I should have just got it over with anyway.

I have to rely on my parents or the bus system to get around, and after awhile it just becomes...sad.

>>2364789
It keeps you unemployed since you can only apply to places within walking distance.

I don't regret my hobbies or lifestyle. I'm very introverted so even if I wasn't into weeaboo shit I would have never made it as a normalfag (believe me I tried). The only thing I regret is never confessing to the only girl I ever really loved.

You all are lucky. Even if I had a license, I wouldn't have a car.

>>2364807
This is only really a problem if you live in the middle of nowhere.

I regret nothin.

>>2364810
Why didn't you confess?

>>2364812
Just download one.

I regret a lot of stupid little things. The fact that I'm so easily bothered and stressed out by seemingly insignificant things is one of the reasons I seclude myself.

I regret not getting into this sooner. So many wasted years.

>>2364778
>>2364803
>>2364806
>>2364812

No regrets.

>>2364825

If only Kircheis was my bro...

I have no regrets, this is the only path.


... No really, I know that if I try, I'll fail (hooray self-fulfilling prophecies), so why waste time and energy trying?
I prefer being a quitter than a failure.

>>2364813
I live in the suburbs of a state capital, and I can't get anywhere over five miles on foot. Mostly due to the fact the public transport is underfunded and all we have are a handful of buses that are never on time, anyway.

>>2364771
I always think of how much better my life would be if I had a car.

I wouldn't have to leech off family and roommate to get anywhere, I could get a cheaper apartment at college, I would have a CHANCE to get a job, I could meet people, the list goes on.

The problem is I never got my license and can barely afford a car.

Also, I regret wasting time on 4chan instead of studying. I'm afraid to look at my finaid because I think I may have gotten dropped which means I'm a dead man. I need someone to hold me ; ;

>>2364839
What are you studying?

>>2364835
I dunno. I live in a city of 70k and I still was makin 11.70 an hour. It's not much but it was alright. I can understand if public transportation is bad though.

>>2364815
Why do you think? I am an insecure cowardly faggot who is afraid of rejection. I even knew that the girl was at least somewhat interested in me but I was too worried that she just thought of me as a friend.

I regret being a wussy for did not punch the bullies in order to avoid "unnecessary graduation problems" during my high school time.

Now i am haunted by my past over and over again..

>>2364845
Chemistry

Last semester I got 4 A's... and then an F in Orgo because I didn't put any effort in. My GPA tanked since it was on the line to begin with, and I'm afraid to look at the grades in my current classes because I always cram for the exams and take them while half-asleep. I converted m/s to rad/s out of nowhere on my last test because I couldn't concentrate.

>>2364839
Even if you had a car the cost of it plus insurance, gas, and parking probably would end up being more than the amount you saved on an apartment. I was lucky enough to find a cheap apartment a few blocks from campus, but I'm moving out this summer so I hope I can find another one where I won't need a car.

I regret not getting out much, not trying out for football in highschool, never doing anything significant, never having a girlfriend, being overwhelmed by my shyness. Other then that at least I got my license at 16. Yay?

>>2364871
You wouldn't be saying that if you were me.

The nearest grocery store is 4 miles away with no bus route near it, and my roommate is out of town. I'm literally starving to death right now, all I've had is water for the last 24+ hours. I can't afford to start ordering crap like pizza because I'm on a tight budget.

Everything after i was born.

The only thing that makes my life worth living is unfulfilling creature comforts, the knowledge that it's not as bad as other people's, and that i don't have to work.

The worst part is that i don't try to change it out of fear and complacency.

When i die people will remember me as a person who lived for and produced nothing. A complete waste of the vast resources nature and society put into me. A person who didn't live at all. A person who sat there waiting for someone to show them the way.

I regret dropping out of high school
I regret not getting my drivers license yet.(I'm 20)
I regret being too shy and losing all my friends.

inb4 i regret posting in 4chan

>>2364890
MY OWN CLONE
AT LEAST NEITHER OF US WILL BE VIRGINS

>>2364890
You and everyone else on this board.

>>2364898
Too late.

I regretted not attending class at all in my eleventh year of school. Now the Japanese university I'm applying to wants to see my grades for the year which I can't give.

I also regretted never making a move on a friend I had a crush on and now she has a bf. Also regretted not approaching this girl I liked due to being a wuss before graduation.

I regret nothing, for I have learned plenty with my failures.

>>2364883
Even if you walk one mile per hour, you'll get there and back by sunset. I hope you have a backpack or something to carry the food.

Like many people in this thread, I just regret "Waiting for Godot" to show me the way.

Cyclopean coffee-addicted lawyer unrelated.

This entire thread is full of modern day george costanzas, myself included.

As far as I'm concerned alot of you probably coulda had alot better lives, but their was a ton of bad luck along the way that kinda fucked you over yes?

I regret not getting into 4chan and weeaboo subculture at an earlier age.

I regret days and nights spent marathoning anime.
I regret not taking up any normal hobbies.
I regret owning dolls and figures.

I regret everything, because I tend to see flaws and imperfections in everything.

I regret nothing, because it's generally not useful.

I regret not having killed one of those fucktards that bullied me in school.

>>2364931
The sad part is that's not really the case for me. The only bad luck I had was having a complete lack of social skills, but even then I probably could have been successful if I had tried harder or made fewer mistakes. I was set up for a good life and just wasted the opportunity.

>>2364931
I had some bad luck when I was a teen, mostly dealing with the law, so I spent a year in a group home, but I think most of my messed up life has to do with me being such a slacker and not even trying hard/giving up too easy.

>>2364931

Damn straight.

I have no regrets.

I like being a weeaboo

>What do you regret, /jp/?

Nothing.

>>2364956
So do I. Worrying about being a weeaboo are the least of my worries.

I have no regrets, this is the path I chose to walk.

>>2364931
Nope.

If I've had any bad luck, it goes waaay back to my mental development. I'm sharp enough that I could do well at anything I put my mind to it, but I lack the dedication, concentration, and interest. I am empty of ambition and motivation.

I finally meet someone who I can actually talk with. It's really been the only fun I've had in such a long time (with another person that is).

The sad part is, I don't have my licence. I can't even take her out and be a normalfag. I'm stuck.

I'm pathetic, /jp/. Why, for all those years, did I trick myself into believing that my insular, anti-social and free loading lifestyle was acceptable? What the fuck was/is wrong with me?

Self sage for everything.

I really, really regret reading spoilers before getting into anime/visual novels.
Also I regret leaving /g/ for TF2...a bit. But that happened already and there's no way to turn the clock back. Might as well keep playing TF2...
Don't worry, anons, just keep looking toward the future! This will all end someday, even if it's by death!

>>2364971
>Why, for all those years, did I trick myself into believing that my insular, anti-social and free loading lifestyle was acceptable?
Wait, it isn't? Well shit.

>>2364973
Life sucks and then you die.

The only regret I have is that I won't be able to sustain my current lifestyle. I regret not being incredibly wealthy.

Lets all just move to the same state and form a genshiken group, its clear we'll never have any other friends. Hell I cant even make friends on mmo's, well I'm only playing WoW at the moment and I hate every single person I've met on there so that doesnt quite count.

>>2364980

And then you ride a boat with a tittymonster until a midget sends you to hell forever.

>>2364984
But who will drive us around if none of us have licenses?

>>2364992
We'll take the bus! And walk (maybe!)!

>>2364992

I've got a license...but no car

why the hell do I bother renewing it

>>2364984
"Friends"? What are these "friends" you speak of? I enjoy being by myself as much as I enjoy being with friends, but being with friends is more work. Screw that.

>>2365007
Not to mention that they are all plotting to betray you.

I regret wasting my time sleeping, when I could be playing more Touhou.

Hey, /jp/ anons, sit down for a moment.

>>2365015
>That's all

Wait, come back!

I regret being here now and read you, depressing faggots.

>>2365015
What game is that from?

>>2365024
Not form a game. It's from an anon.... to anon.

>>2365035
Oh, screw that then. The last person I want advice from is anon.

>>2365053
It's not advice

Going to college. Waste of 4 years.

>>2365093
What did you waste your time studying?

What were the reasons the majority of you never got your licenses by the way?

Life is a waste of time, I want to go back to the way I was before it.

>>2365115
To expensive.

>>2365115
Only 19 here, but still.
Nowhere to drive. No job. I have friends, but they're ruining their own lives, and I want nothing to do with them right now. I go to classes at about the same time a relative goes to work, so I just catch a ride from them.

I'm 21 and have no license. I tried and failed 3 times, mainly because the people who give the test here are assholes and actually ended up in legal trouble due to not giving any licenses out, but I'm a fucking loser who can't bother to take the test again.

What I really regret is never finding anyone I can make a connection with. I still maintain everyone else is the fucked up one, not me.

>>2365120
I don't think my license cost me anything. Unless you mean a car is too expensive, which I agree with but it's still good to have a drivers license.

>>2365130
Nah, I mean insurance and gas. I'm already paying for school and trying to find a job still.

>>2365132
Yeah that too. Adding up all the expenses of a car is fucking mindblowing (parking at my college alone is like $400 a term). It's not worth it at all.

I have no regrets

I've had my license since I was 18. Now I drive my mom's car. That sure does impress the ladies!

>>2365115
Too lazy and nowhere to go. I mean, my high school was in walking distance, why would I need a car?

I regret going off my anti-depressant meds and using a girl that didn't live in my state (and was bat-shit insane, but I digress) as my method of social contact.

Now I'm in Junior year and I have no friends. It didn't really hit me how sad things where until I was filling out a job app that asked for ``someone who knew you at this address" and I realized I had no answer.

I blame everyone else for my problems. I don't regret my own actions even slightly.

>>2365157
"Need a ride to school, girls? Got candy."

I regret going off my anti-depressant meds and using a girl that didn't live in my state (and was bat-shit insane, but I digress) as my method of social contact in Freshman year of college.

Now I'm in Junior year and I have no friends. It didn't really hit me how sad things where until I was filling out a job app that asked for ``someone who knew you at this address" and I realized I had no answer.

ITT angsty teens that think getting called names in high school is the same as life fucking them over

get out

>>2365166
Angsty adults, damn it.

>>2365166
Actually it seems like most of us admit that our mistakes are our own fault.

>>2365115
The reason is that I suck at driving. Failed 6 times here on the behind-the-wheel test. I'm 20 years old now

>>2365115
No one will teach me, no money for classes.

I got my license at 19 but almost never drive my car. I just walk to school. I've never gotten on the highway.

I'm becoming increasingly comfortable living like a social recluse at school. That's probably something I should try to stop, even though it technically means my life is getting easier. Maybe one day, when it's too late for me to go back, I'll regret that I didn't try to stop it...

It seems like everyone's life would be better if they just banned cars.

>>2365166
SHUT UP I WATCHED KAIJI I KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE

I regret now leaving my house for the last 4 years, with the exception of walking to a open-24-hour a day grocery store after midnight for food maybe once every two weeks.

...but even though I regret it, I know I wont change.

I never even got a learner's permit, and I'm 19.

>>2365240
I rather they just built trains and subways everywhere like japan.

Theoretically, there shouldn't be a problem getting a drivers license. The written portion is a joke and driving consists of sitting in a seat and going in a straight line with the occasional steering JUST LIKE MY DRIVING VIDYAS.

The problem is you gotta go down to the dmv (aka hellhole)and hope that the instructor isn't a frustrated goon who's twitchy with the red marker.

And you gotta practice too which is why kids start driving when they're 15.

>>2365251
>I regret not leaving my house
fix'd

weird typo lol

I uh...threw my learner's permit away. I regret doing that for one thing. I was 15 and i didn't care about driving.

Besides even if i still had it, it would be expired.

>>2365254
>driving consists of sitting in a seat and going in a straight line with the occasional steering JUST LIKE MY DRIVING VIDYAS

No. My test consisted of driving in actual traffic, and I would have crashed if the instructor didn't stop me.

I regret that I didn't drink or smoke during high school, because maybe then I would've realized much earlier I have an addictive personality and by now would've figured out some way to manage it.

>>2365269
>I regret that I didn't drink or smoke during high school, because maybe then I would've realized much earlier I have an addictive personality and by now would've figured out some way to manage it.

You mean you like drinking and smoking and wish you could have drunk and smoked more.

>What I really regret is never finding anyone I can make a connection with.

What do you mean "connection"? A relationship/love interest?

>>2365253
This.
It would make things much easier and more fun really.

Only path, etc. I don't regret anything, I'm not compatible with society.

I regret nothing.

i got a cool story for all you bros.

i didn't get my license until i was 30 years old

the first time i tried i ended up trying to learn stick by myself and ended up totalling my sister's car that she gave me while i just had a learners permit by ramming it into some mercedes

anyways i thought i was totally fucked but insurance ended covering it and i basically was depressed for year but i didn't give up. after biking to and going on the bus for work i was able to regain my parents trust and they offered more guidance and a car i could practice with. i got a 100 bucks and then paid a reputable driving school to teach me how to drive and it really helped

ended up passing the dmv test and getting my license.

met a girl in one of my classes and we started dating.

one she said her parents were going away for vacation she gave directions to her house.

i learned how to drive on the freeway in the following weeks. lol.

finis.

>>2366569

clap clap

I'm happy with my life.
I'm fairly rich
I'm moving to the US this summer, I'll be studying something which I'll hopefully like.
The only thing that bothers is that I'll be living there alone, as my family obviously can't follow me.
I don't really have much to regret, because everything happened the way it had to happen, and no other way was possible.
