These 17 People Made Horrible Decisions That Ruined Their Lives

My Dad called me and told me he was dying, (he was in hospital with cancer), I asked the nurse if he was and she said no, anyway I tried to get to see him but my brother had my car and I couldn't get anyone to take me and he died late that night, alone. If I knew, obviously I would have bussed, walked, hitchhiked or crawled to that hospital but I didn't and 14 years later I still can't forgive myself and it haunts me every day.

I decided to break up a fight. It was a success at first, but then some guy came from behind and tackled me. I was stronger than him and gave a few good ones, but he was obviously a trained a fighter. He put my leg in some type of jiu-jitsu hold and tore my ACL. I was an uninsured student at the time. Ten years later, I still cannot play any sports and I have to be extremely cautious in the snow.

When I was 20 or so I was poor, my family was poor, and things got really bad that year. I decided I could make some quick money flipping stolen items (buy cheap, sell for a profit). I was an idiot and got busted. I got a felony for it, and 7 years of probation. Now I'm 28, can't get a fucking job anywhere, and life is nearly pointless at this juncture.

I got married and we got matching tattoos instead of wedding rings because tattoos are permanent like marriage …..right? My husband is leaving me.
