Someone told me today they got this question in an interview once. (Talk about getting put on the spot!) In that spirit, I encourage everyone to post their first and most immediate response, as it's likely to be the most honest.

I think I'd most regret having never written anything of any length (except BL posts).
 
That I only had less than one minute to live, and that I didn't get much warning beforehand. I guess it wouldn't really be regret, but bottomless rage.
 
fathering a son to carry on my name and legacy

oh and never getting that last loving touch from her
 
Not knowing what would have happened if I married someone instead of abandoning them for a brain dead whore like I ended up doing


...but I'd get over that really quick upon remembering I can achieve orgasm in under 60 seconds in a pinch and would go out with a bang
 
Wow, this thread has already brought up some pretty heavy stuff...

My biggest regret? Not loving myself, particularly my body, as much as ought have.

Off topic: Looks like Thanatos has found himself a nice little nest in PnS, seeing that SLR wouldn't have exactly been welcoming =D
 
i'd regret simply not being with all those whom i love at that moment to tell them of the honour it had been to have shared some time in their presence, and that I wished them all the very best in life.
 
Not practicing meditation (and spirituality in general) as much as I could have.
 
Having not seen more of the amazing world in which i inhabit.

^ - It would of originally been 'never telling my parents i love them', but after an emotional breakdown a few months ago, i felt compelled to that instant.
 
A minute is hardly enough time to compose some really magnificent regrets. I'd have to skip regrets and just send out a quick txt to everyone in my contacts. Maybe "it's been grand everybody.was nice hangin w/ you all.some of my behavior can be explained by the fact much of the time I had no clue as to what was going on" That's 156 characters, if I were very luck I cold get that down to 140 & press send.
 
I'd regret going out before I was able to fuck a girl from every race.
 
My one regret would be having the knowledge of my immanent death--I wouldn't want to know until I was actually passing.

I try not to live with regrets; everything happens for a reason in my book.
 
That I wasted my life away and accomplished nothing. Even though I'm still young, I feel like my life is quite fruitless at the moment.
 
regret i didnt have my girl in my arms

regret that i didnt have dope for one last rush
 
Not knowing true love. I've recently been wondering if I've actually encountered it, or if I have been too "in the moment" to realize that I've been fooled by a few lovers. Other than that, I would be really scared to know I was dying!
 
Having spent most of my life being what I thought others wanted me to be, rather than knowing it was okay to be who I am.
 
I don't think I'd regret anything I did (I'm pretty sure everyone's forgotten all that embarassing stuff...I hope). Yeah, I haven't seen the world or _____ or whatever, but after I'm dead I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be sitting around wishing I'd gone to India. And I know I work my hardest at everything I do, so I know I put in my best effort while I was alive.

I'd be pissed that I wasn't in a group hug with the people I love though.

Also, I have less than a minute? I'd probably just cry. Because I wasn't with my people. Or have an anxiety attack. i'm pretty sure there wouldn't be much deep thinking going on there.

That's pretty tough. I wouldn't think about regrets.

I'd want to catch a last glimpse of beauty and the regret would be not doing exactly that.
 
i would regret never being able to view the world through LSDeyes.. that's true beauty
