I have to be honest, I’ve lived a pretty full and vibrant life. I’ve done a lot and seen a lot. But I do have a few regrets.

Ok, well, 23 I can name off the top of my head. Some are little regrets, some are big. Some are contradictory. Some are crazy, some are sweet.

23 Regrets in Life From a 60-Year-Old Woman

I’d love to know what some of your regrets are. Feel free to write up your own list and tag me so I can see it!

In no particular order of importance, here we go.

1. Not telling more people to fuck off.

Honestly, this really is number 1. And really, there are only two people, no, wait, three people on the planet I really want to say “Fuck off” to.

2. Not using my voice more.

I got bullied and taken advantage of so much in my life. I was always desperately looking for friends and love at any cost. I let people do mean things to me. I wish I had learned to say no sooner.

3. Not believing in myself more.
