How do you get over the past and mistakes you've made?

Question

I let stress get to me and I walked away form the woman I love so much and now I'm living back at my parents at 27 and I feel like my life is ruined. I don't know what to do anymore I just want to move forward but I feel as though I ruined my life. How do you let the past go and not dwell and regret. I get so caught up in could of would of should of and it eats me up. I just want to move forward in my life but I keep looking back.

Answer 1

The important thing is to go forward and use this experience as a basis for future relationships. The thing that probably hurts most is living back home with your parents who still treat you like an adolescent. They may have a point. Any 27 year old man with a tiny bit of self worth would be out there chugging along by himself under his own roof and living his own life.

Answer 2

i dont know the situation...but if you love this woman, why not go get her back?

ive made plenty big mistakes in my life but you just have to sit back and tell yourself that there is not a d**n thing you can do now. its in the past and just move forward...try to think before you make choices so you can avoid regrets later in life.

i think you should go get your girl back =) good luck

Answer 3

Past does not exist. It is only in your imagination and memories. All that is real is here and now. Future and past are illusory. Try to meditate on that. If you realize that past does not exist, then there will be nothing you have to deal with. I know it's hard, but it is the truth.
