They say no situation is unique, there're people who've been exactly there before you have. They say there're ways to get exactly what you want. Ways to get what you want from people. Because similar people have similar feelings, similar reactions.
But it's life. There're so many things that could happen. So many variables. And when there's people involved, there're so many more things that could go wrong, or in a way you never expected. What you say is judged by all those who hear you say it. And then discussed. And modified and interpreted. The more number of people, the higher the chances of misinterpretation.
Maybe if that one person hadn't been there that night to add that extra twist to your words. Maybe if you hadn't had that one last drink. Maybe if you hadn't gone out at all. Small, tiny, insignificant factors at that time, but so much bigger in retrospect.
The thing is, you need to grow up and be your own person, and most importantly, realise that everything happens for a reason. Whether it be a good reason or a bad one. But what you absolutely must not do is regret. If it seemed right when you were doing it, it must have been the right thing to do then. And you did it.
