I'd regret not doing something that I could/should have. Instead of pursuing my real passion in life, I let insecurity and self doubt hold me back. Not that I don't enjoy what I'm doing now, but I think the "what if's" are harder to cope with than the "Wish I could take that back's" because it always makes you wonder if you could have excelled at something that truly meant something to you deep in your soul. Of course, hopefully there's still that opportunity someday, and I never lose hope of that. Great question, Annadel.

Not having done something I should have! There was a time in my life when I thought I had to work my butt off to make money so that my children could have everything I didn't have as a child. Looking back, they got exactly what they needed, which money couldn't buy - morals, principles, respect for authority, good work ethics, great parenting skills - the material stuff didn't mean anything in the scheme of things.

Both for me. I regret not taking up career oppertunities that were sitting at my feet. And I regret moving to another country as it became too late too move back and I lost most of my family without being with them.

Not having done something I should have. I wish I could re-live my high school years. I was so naive about so many things!

Having done something I shouldn't have, Both really but I tend to dwell on this more, Look back on it and realise the logic. If it is saying the wrong thing or saying something I shouldn't have. There has been many situations for both but I tend to look back and regret having done something which I shouldn't have.
