If you could go back in time just long enough to give yourself a piece of dating/relationship advice, what would it be? Assuming, of course, that you would listen to yourself...

I know this will be a repeat of things said on other threads, but I thought it would be interesting.

I'd tell myself " Don't let your lonliness and impatience let you make bad decisions"

I'd go chasing after myself, make a huge, flopping lunge as my younger, former, more stupid self picked up the phone to call some guy who was all wrong and scream, "NNNN-------OOOOOO!!!!!!" ("Slow-motion" like in a good action film.) Then I'd tie my old self to a chair until I grew older and wiser because I know I'd be way to stubborn to listen to anyone, even myself.

I would actually go back to when I was 14 and tell myself to kiss this one guy while I had the chance! Which probably sounds like a really stupid thing to regret, but I think if I had known at the time that I would end up being 26 (and probably someday 36 and 46 and so on) and never been kissed, I would have seized the moment and not let the opportunity pass me by.

I would look at myself and say.. first of all.... your an idiot for the things you will do... and secondly, you deserve to be dropped off in some remote jungle where tribal people will poke at you with long sticks and make weird clicking sounds with their mouths. Then i'd say.. former self... PUT THE CELL PHONE DOWN...... JUST LET IT GO!!!! Theeen i would go into a speech about, listning when everyone else around you is going NOOOOO, and your the only one going YEEES! and i would have said self..... ... you weirdo.......... .. have them arrested..... espeically for what they will do..... call the police, every single time... no making excuses

How will I know that until I hear it? If I don't like it, it's my regret to live with, not yours!

O.k....so since MusicalMe gave me permission (on a different thread) to post in the singles forums...here goes..... I think I'd not assume that the first guy who ever looked my way would be the ONLY guy who would look my way!! I'd be more confident in myself and not think of myself as fat, dumb, and ugly. In other words I would not listen to others in High School!!! What do a bunch of other insecure teens know anyway?? hahhaa I'd also not let my eye problems hold back who I am. Confidence rules!!!

I'd tell myself not to date my last ex boyfriend. It was a waste of 7 months and I only ended up hurting him.
