I always say that I never regret the relationship that I had with my ex. It's true because the relationship was great and I was really happy, though it ended in a shitty way. But I've been thinking about the time when I tried to reach out to him in 2020. Thinking that it would just be like the good old days, that we can still be "friends", only realizing that he has completely changed and I don't recognize that person anymore. I regret reaching out to him, I shouldn't have done that. It would've been so much better for me if I didn't know anything about him after 2019 or 2018. I regret it so much. Because of me reaching out, he drained me, drained my energy, and got me depressed which ruined everything that I had planned. I hate it. I shouldn't have done that. I was so stupid. Still sorta kicking myself for it. Why would I do that? Well I've got the consequences. And I feel much better now I've let it all out. I never wanted to say that I "regret" it because I was embarrassed. Well, now I feel better after admitting it.

We don’t have access to all the information and all the future possibilities when we make decisions. Sometimes you can make the right decision based on all the information you have available at the time and it still turn out badly. It’s easy to look back and think that every bad event must have been caused by a mistake but sometimes things just happen.
Imagine you are tossing a coin, before it’s tossed you can’t possibly know if it will be a head or a tail so you just have to make a choice. It’s only afterwards you know what the outcome was, it’s easy to regret your choice if you didn’t guess correctly but it doesn’t mean you made a mistake.

You're a strong and wise person @puffymilk . It doesn't seem right for you to stay at a drained and depressed stare, nor for me for that matter...
I'm glad you wrote this thank you. I learned some things about myself in reading it. I relate to this post very well, unfortunately.
On SF you come across as smart and loving, and creative. Hope you keep feeling a lot better.

You let it out - I wish for you that it stays out and that you can go forward. Tip from an older person - looking back is only inside - to make it better in the future. Lost things do not come back - never. And if - its not the same.
You are strong, you have power, you said it - so go on and make something out of your future life. This is what I wish you with all my heart. Courage.
