If you could go back in time to reach out to someone you've hurt, who would it be?

Whether it's past relationships or past friendships... If you could go back to a particular scenario in your past, as the person that you are now, and change the actions that may have had a negative impact on someone... what would that scenario be??? Perhaps, a relationship ended hastily because you were too afraid to express how you felt, or unwilling to completely deal with it????

I'd reach out to those that have hurt me in the past with a slap round the face!

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Friday, 25 April 2003 12:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Although I may wish I hadn't hurt people, the actions that hurt them are all things I wouldn't take back. So it's no go really.

― Archel (Archel), Friday, 25 April 2003 12:28 (twenty-two years ago)

Me too, Pinkpanther. Those bitches deserve a good slap!

I'm trying to think if I've ever hurt anyone... hmm... I think maybe I'm too self-centered to even know the answer to that. I don't know. I never bullied anyone. I guess I could have been sweeter to my little sisters growing up (instead of yelling at them). I guess I hurt a few boys, but who hasn't??
I'm a Heartbreaker...Don't you mess around me with me!

I had a burgeoning relationship with a woman awhile back, in which she wasn't quite capable of opening herself up to the level I felt I deserved. So I ended it. Which isn't such a sin by itself. But I do nearly wish I could take it back when I told her that people like her were the reason I never opened up to anyone. OUCH!

― Scott Kos (Scott Kos), Friday, 25 April 2003 12:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I haven't hurt that many people - probably only one. I've already apologised to him but my apology was never accepted. So what else can I do.

Most of the time, I feel that regret and remembrance are pointless wastes of life... especially when ya consider how truly selfish/uncaring/judgmental/whatever most people reveal themselves to be, anyway. But there always seems to be that one memory that won't die, that keeps scratching its claws across the blackboard of your mind, if you will...

― Scott Kos (Scott Kos), Friday, 25 April 2003 12:48 (twenty-two years ago)

"how truly selfish/uncaring/judgmental/whatever most people reveal themselves to be":

Well, I should say MANY people, not "most"...

― Scott Kos (Scott Kos), Friday, 25 April 2003 12:49 (twenty-two years ago)

There's no one I would fall all over myself apologizing too. Even the ugliest episodes have been a "two to tango" kinda situation. I can think of a few people, though, that if I had it to do all over again, I would stay completely away from.

― Kenan Hebert (kenan), Friday, 25 April 2003 12:54 (twenty-two years ago)

i miss tash every day. i often wish i could take back what i did. but its no use. perhaps its enough for me to know i would never do it again. i think she was unfair to me about it, but that doesn't stop me wishing she was still in my life.

― di smith (lucylurex), Friday, 25 April 2003 13:01 (twenty-two years ago)

i handled h situation badly at time, yea it was difficult situation and i did my best at time to handle things, but i let it drag on afterwards, because i couldnt deal with the hurt as well as i would have liked. i'd like to make it up, put things right, even if only for my self really

― gareth (gareth), Friday, 25 April 2003 13:19 (twenty-two years ago)

"i'd like to make it up, put things right, even if only for my self really" --

I've felt the same thing. So is the desire to right our past wrongs really just an extension of selfishness???

― Scott Kos (Scott Kos), Friday, 25 April 2003 13:21 (twenty-two years ago)

no, i'd like to do it for her sake. what i meant was, if she didnt appreciate, or was uninterested, then even for the sake of having given it a go, would count for something

To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say I've held the best
For helping me to grow
I owe a lot I know
To all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wives
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls who cared for me
Who filled my nights with ecstasy
They live within my heart
I'll always be a part
Of all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Friday, 25 April 2003 18:40 (twenty-two years ago)

hstencil, would you like to join the Dunedin Central Lite Music Club?

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 26 April 2003 01:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, in my case, I'd actually prefer to go back in time to prevent a certain relationship from having developed.

― j.lu (j.lu), Saturday, 26 April 2003 01:20 (twenty-two years ago)

i'd reach back & hurt em some more. fuckers

― duane, Saturday, 26 April 2003 01:25 (twenty-two years ago)

For someone who has hurt themselves to avoid the possibility of hurting other people, I've done it way too many times. Generally, I find you don't want to apologize to people; they'd rather not be reminded and you're only making you feel better.

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Saturday, 26 April 2003 02:55 (twenty-two years ago)

i hurt a lot of my teachers in high school because they really believed in me and my academic potential. of course, all of the pressure from the expectations that i should be the smartest and most accomplished student in school is what caused me to frustrate them, so, really, it was all a big mess.

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:11 (twenty-two years ago)

in college, the teacher of my favorite class, a seminar, told me in a meeting that i could be part of the small subset who could do something successful with an academic grad program. then i wrote a lazy paper and got an A- in the class.

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:18 (twenty-two years ago)

that was college for me too. HS was very different as I went to a boarding school in the woods and everybody knew everything. even teachers i dint have classes with were mad at me ;-)

― Aaron Grossman (aajjgg), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:21 (twenty-two years ago)

they'd rather not be reminded and you're only making you feel better

Reminds me of Linklater's Tape.

di, can I join the DCLMC?!

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:23 (twenty-two years ago)

When I was 13 I went to camp north of Winnipeg. There was a kid in our cabin who had the smallest penis I've ever seen, and that's counting infants'. The kid was about 9 or 10 years old. I named him "beandink" and that was the name he was stuck with for the week. Anyway, that was probably a hurtful thing to have called him. It would be that kid, I guess.

Reminds me of Linklater's Tape.

one of my favorite movies

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:27 (twenty-two years ago)

I think Linklater is the best thing we got going right now. Can't wait to see what he does next.

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Mr Diamond, you can, but only if you bring Air Supply to a meeting.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:32 (twenty-two years ago)

well, um, there's also, um, Laura Elena Harring

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:33 (twenty-two years ago)

di, I am so there. But, um, given their proximity to you folks surely you've overdosed on the Supply by now?

Do you all ever hang w/ a certain mr. galbraith?

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Someone I dated in college. If I had a choice and wasn't insane at the time, it would have ended entirely differently. I'll spare the person further humiliation by posting her name on a public arena. Hindsight is 20/20. Insanity is something like being blind minus the enhancement of the other senses.

― Scaredy Cat, Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:41 (twenty-two years ago)

no, we are not overdosed on air supply, only crowded house. i don't personally hang with mr galbraith, but he came to the last international telepaths gig. that was nice of him.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:50 (twenty-two years ago)

cool. I haven't seen AG in like 7 years - when he was last in the states for a period - but he is a kind and thoughtful fellow, and I miss him and hate myself for not keeping contact. I've never been to NZ but long wanted to visit. If I ever realize my dream, we must FAP! Oh, and I love T. Rex!

― Mr. Diamond (diamond), Saturday, 26 April 2003 03:55 (twenty-two years ago)

the DCLMC eagerly anticipates your initiation.

― di smith (lucylurex), Saturday, 26 April 2003 04:07 (twenty-two years ago)

roX0r!
