It's hard for me to answer this, because there are some obvious responses (dating Ben, going to Minnesota), but in retrospect I'm not sure I WOULD take those back, because I learned so much from them. They changed my personality drastically, and I love what they've given me, even if they were hellish at the time.
So, with that in mind:
1) I would not have led Eric on when I was sixteen. I was too young and stupid to realize that he was my rebound from my first ex-boyfriend, but I should have realized it anyway.
2) I wouldn't have baited Melissa so much in high school. She wasn't worth it.
3) I wouldn't have dated Brendan that last time -- it was a waste of time on both our parts, and after I chose between him and the other boy, my friendship with boy numero dos has never been the same. I hate that -- I miss who we were.
