Your biggest fucking mistake

[Vivago]

Way back in Napoleonic times, when I had taken the King's shilling, I was on R&R in San Pedro, Belize and as I'd been in the jungle for weeks, I naturally got blind drunk. I woke up the following morning with a blistering hangover in what appeared to be a garden shed, stark bollock naked and hugging a big fat black, equally naked slapper who quite easily could have played the stunt double for King Kong. I hoped that I'd been too drunk for sexual activity but emerging, horrible flashbacks suggested otherwise. I was sure that I had not only boffed this scary creature but had done so au natural.  I spent weeks in blind terror of my tool turning green and dropping off.

What is your most horrible mistake, either punting or civilian? I expect that like me it will be alcohol related.

Not investing in something last year

5 grand investment which I weighed up was just under 800 grand last time I checked

I bought around 100 pounds of bitcoin almost 10 years ago and sold it  6 months later... to this day i feel sick to my stomach.

Working on RS2000's seem far more entertaining than writing computer software.

It all ended out OK, but fuck me, if I had gotten into software writing, when the sex pistols were a thing......

Knobbing a Scandinavian whale with a smelly chuff in east London when I was younger. Blame it now on alcohol and having only two nights previously seen 'Danish Dentist On The Job' in a porno flea pit in the West End.

Getting married?
Got married to the first girl I met after graduating straight out of university because it was the thing to do.
I've never been great with women (never really understood them tbh) but met loads of women since who I had more in common with than the OH. I still wonder how things would have turned out if I had waited, or not married at all!

[spud jizz]

my biggest mistake was in 2006 when working in camaroon, after weeks of work i decided i needed a night out on my own.
There was a guy from Nigeria working with us and i gave him $100 and said if i wasn't home by lunch time come and get me. Where will i find you he said, cant be much scots in camaroon i said youll find me.
So i left the compound at 6pm dressed to impress and covered in cheap knock off cologne from the airport.
I woke up 2 days later to screams as big black cunt with a ak47 stood over me as i sleept on a  mattress on a floor of a house made of plywood and pallets with 3 naked black girls all about 18 to 22.
The Nigerian guy had tryed looking for me but couldnt find me so call his friend from the army in to find me.
I had spent $3500 and couldnt remember a thing but knew i had the time of my life 

the mistake part was i was on the next flight home and had lost my job 

[PJonesconnect]

So I received an email from a prince in a small African country that had been ravaged by civil war. He asked me to receive some inheritance from him so naturally I gave him my bank account details. I was shocked when my bank account emptied and I didn’t receive the promised $100,000,000 Ugandan dollars.

[Steely Dan]

Buying a bottle of Champagne for a stripper in Geneva on a credit card.  I got a blow job.  When I got home, I was billed for 4 bottles. £1600. 

Credit card company just asked if I was in the place.  I said yes.  They said then it is a police matter = you need to call local police and report a crime.  As if.

This was quite some time ago...I think credit cards do better now.  But still, now  I would NEVER use a cc in a strip club, casino, whatever. Even when drunk. 

[mexicola]

I played in some bands about 25 years ago, left one who werent  doing well and I thought not going anywhere  to get a "proper job" and they eventually made it, they've toured the world, sold a lot of records and even headlined the second stage at Glastonbury.

[tangledupinblue]

I’ve made many, but the one that still gives me nightmares was going home from hospital to get some fresh clothing when my mother was dying.
Needless to say when I got back she had passed away.

To give an idea, in 2010, a Bitcoin was worth $0.06. A Bitcoin now is valued at $11,808.

You should have gone to Raul's Rose Garden

My biggest mistake, was also my biggest achievement

In my 20's I sent sexual text messages to an employee, was sacked from my job, and place under arrest, and charged with breach of the peace, could have been worse, but because I plead guilty, wasn't facing being put on the sex register

The court case was about to change my life, and my families life, not for the worst, but for the better.  Ended up being fined £2500, but the sheriff reduced it to £500, to be paid at £50 per month.  Another condition form the sheriff I had to see a physiotherapist, which I did for the next 12 months

While seeing him, a lot of home truths came out, about how I felt towards family, and when I sent the txt messages, how I felt, I was laughing in uncontrollable hysterics

The physiotherapist believed I was suffering form depression, and taking in to account, I had previously tried to take my life, he made suggestions for removing the causes, like my uncles control over me

The next two years with my uncles were the best, as they were getting old, and bother were in poor health, and when my uncle past away, he left a letter for me, which he basically apologised, as he never knew how much of a problem he was causing me, and left me £50,000, and he hoped I would find peace

I said goodbye to him at the funeral, saying the prayers of the faithful, and said thank you

I could have bought them when they were first released but decided against it

Worst decision ever

I doubt I could have kept them without cashing in on them at the highest peak thus far

[Corus Boy]

Out of interest, how much would it be worth now?

$19,680,000

If the initial investment was a $100, The exchange rate ten years ago was about $2 for a £1.  If the investment was in £'s then it's worth twice as much.

$100 / 0.06 * 11,808

That's a few good punts if my calculations are correct.

Punting or otherwise...

Punting, fucking a hound in an estionan whore house, ravaged by beer from three days on the piss,,,didn’t even feel condom come off, fucked her bareback, anally bareback etc (only know this as she demanded extra off our “guide”....literally cried everyday until thankfully tests came back clear,  ever punted with a drink in me since..

Otherwise.. left a firm before it floated, could have been wedged Nicey, or not buying my mums old Council house in London for £13k, which is now worth £600k easily (and I had the £13k in cash as well)

If it makes you feel any better, it’s my understanding that most people die when they are alone. So it may well be that your mother chose that moment (consciously or otherwise) to let go. My father in law went exactly the same, 5 minutes after the family left - they’d been there all day.

She may have been waiting for you to take a break. The important thing is that you’d been with her and she’d have known that. Don’t beat yourself up over it, it was just timing. *man hug*

[Jamboney]

A good friend of mine died of leukaemia aged 20. I used to go round his house once or twice a week to play Xbox or watch a film etc. Although at that point he was quite sick the chances of him winning his battle were still pretty good. One evening I was due to go and see him and I’d had a particularly shit day at work that day, and i didn’t really fancy it so I called him to rearrange for the following day. He sounded fine on the phone but within less than 48 hours of speaking to him, he took a turn for the worst and had passed away.

My bad day at work was nothing in comparison to what he was going through and my being lazy cost me seeing a good mate one last time. In May it’ll be 10 years since he passed away and that feeling of guilt is still as strong now as it was then.

Quality Thread.

15 years ago smashed a porn star bareback. We sought of saw each other a couple of times after meeting at Natashas Parties and got carried away.  Went on holiday 2 days later with the Mrs and symptoms started almost immediately. Had to come clean.

Marriage was never the same.

[anonyorks]

Hammered on a stag do I pulled a cute looking Hungarian BBW and woke up naked in Budapest next to a her on a sofa bed in her living room and her son walked in who was about 10 years old. Felt horrible, I then walked outside and did not have a fucking clue where I was and this was pre internet phone days!. Took me 2 hours to walk back to the hotel where my friends were starting to get concerned

[Third Man]

getting married. as others have said not buying bitcoin years ago when it was dirt cheap having read about it told friends etc  and not buying some myself. leaving a really well paid job many years ago as I was in some mood and said fuk it. I constantly dream that I'm back working there. fukin idiot. and that's for starters.

[Romeo Sensini]

More of a regret than an a mistake - being invited to join a mates band in college. I had zero self confidence in my teens and said no (as I did to everything!). Always wondered what might have been (certainly would have got me more fanny - they did a lot of pub gigs and were always copping off).

A familiar tale. Lost my mother after days and weeks of bed sitting. Went home for a shower and change. Phone rings you’ve guessed it.
Hospital manager said “they do that”. “they wait for you to go.”

In punting being taken for at least £60 by a Manchester streetwalker around 2005. I was pissed out my head, I came out of a club (North) to get some chips and was aked if I wanted some fun, I said yes. Long story short I got in a taxi with her, she had her hand on my nob in the taxi. Ended up on some estate she says she's going to get some money to pay the driver back, she goes inside and doesn't come back out. Probably for the best I could have ended up with the clap. What a stupid naive cunt I was. Also, my first punting experience.

In my private life wish I took up a trade at college.

In relationships wasted nearly two years with a girl who was an obsessive psycho. She's married with two kids, I feel sorry for the poor cunt.

[385North]

My first punt ever punt with Smiley Sindy. I went back to see her four times thereafter and this hobby spiralled from there. That woman has a lot to answer for. 

[Tallchris]

i would not say getting married as she was fit as fuck and great in bed.  however the mistake was sticking with her when it was clearly over.  Several wasted years and many opportunities lost.   i firmly believe in only regretting what you didn't do, not what you did.

Good thread

Putting wise - before I found this place and the joys of reviews I booked a punt and when I got there her mate was there and I could have them both for £80 seemed like the bargain of the century. All they did was HR and wouldn’t let me fuck them and they refused to give any of the money back. When I left I called the hotel and told them prossies were working from that room!

Civvy wise - not realising the girl I was with was a keeper until it as too late. Still she her about 25 years late and she still looks hot and it probably even dirtier in the sack.

The other one was meeting an ex while working away and spending a great weekend on the company fucking her brains out. What I didn’t know as she'd had mental health problems since I knew her and was desperate for a baby. Yup, she got pregnant as a result of that weekend! Thankfully she lost the baby early on as it would’ve wreaked several life’s having to come clean to the Mrs and also it became clear she wasn’t mentally equipped to bring up a kid.

[The Vicar of Dibley]

Between the ages of 17 and 21 I went out with my first girlfriend. She was 2 years older than me. In the 80's she wanted to "do something wild" and suggested we travel for a year. I was a few years into what I hoped was going to be a successful career in banking and was hoping to put my foot on the second step of the career ladder so didn't want to risk it. After much discussion and heated arguments we split up. She  wanted a clean break so we had no contact with each other for about a month.
I finally realised I had made a huge mistake and went round to her parents house where she still lived.
Her mum told me she had flown to New York the previous day with £5000 to her name.
This was before the days of social media, emails, mobile phones & texting etc so I had no way to contact her.
She didn’t return for six years.
Having always been quirky and fashionable, what she had thought was a talent for design and fashion turned out in fact to be genius. She is now a multi multi millionaire.
Its not the money that bothers me, its the fact she was "the one."

[Zeusthedoc]

Opposite of marriage - I had one that got away.
I don't know that it's all out regret but I know that I've not had anyone like her since
