No one on this planet is perfect. If we were, we would never really learn, grow, or fully appreciate the good things that come our way. Making mistakes, even painful ones, is part of how we understand both ourselves and others.

My next door neighbours kid used to be an inconsiderate rude [jerk] and his parents let him and his brother get away with it.
Well one time he put gravel on my windscreen wipers because I saw him out the window doing it, and his parents knew he did this but thought it was a mere practical joke.
So I waited until it was dark, and I grabbed some gravel and stuck it right ontop of their windscreen wipers but inside them too. His parents did not think it was funny when it was their windscreen that got scratched.

I went to high school with a kid who drove like an idiot. To make matters worse, he had a huge truck and lived in my neighborhood, so we often went on the same route to school. He would frequently cut me off, and [tailgate] even when I would go over the speed limit. Think of a BMW driver in a compensator truck.
Anyways, the final straw came when we were both in the school parking lot, and there were 2 open parking spots near the front with plenty of room for both of us. I was about to pull into "my" spot, when this [jerk] decides to double-park his Mad Max truck in both of the spots. Now, I have to go park in the spillover and school was about to start in 2 minutes. That's when I realize that I possessed a "weapon". The previous weekend, I had bought a gallon of milk from the grocery that had expired early. I must've put it in my car with the intent of taking it to the store and getting a refund, but I was sidetracked on my way to the store and I had forgotten about it. I unscrewed the cap to make sure that it smelled bad, and sure enough, it smelled like [trash]. I waited for everyone to clear out of the parking lots, and I made my way to the truck.
Considering it was the south in May, the temperature was going to reach +97° that day, so he decided to leave his windows slightly cracked to let the air ventilate in his black interior/black exterior jerkmobile. I hopped up on the step bar, emptied the entire gallon of spoiled milk into driver side, thew away the empty jug in the dumpster nearby, and headed to class. When we were dismissed at 4, the temp was 99°. It had reached 102° at noon, so I was expecting catastrophic results. Sure enough, he was at his truck screaming at his friends, and dialing the police. The next day, we had an assembly and the school faculty attempted to find out who was responsible for this heinous crime. They never suspected a thing from me.🤣
TL;DR [Jerk] in truck double parks. I pour a gallon of spoiled milk into his truck on a hot day.

I used to have anorexia in early high school years- was hospitalised for a couple of years, came back to school. It took me an hour to eat lunch, cutting a sandwich into 36 pieces and the like. There was a girl who sat with me every lunch for the whole hour, every lunch. For like a year. Then started to talk to people more and ended up abandoning her. Didn't even realise. By the end of high school she was totally alone. Still, teenage me did not even realise. It wasn't til two years later when i looked back that i realised how [awful] i had been. Teenagers are [jerks]. Hope you're doing ok yasmin.

In middle school, my best friend and I made a fake screen name (IM) and messaged her ex to make him believe it was coming from a hot model (we got pictures of some random hot chick off the internet and made a fake MySpace profile). Then we convinced him she was going to meet him on his street corner in an hour to do dirty deeds and he believed us and waited outside for an hour at 2 am.
Twist is that he had a girlfriend at the time and we took screenshots of the whole conversation and sent them to her inbox on MySpace. Still feel guilty.

To preface: I was 13 at the time so keep this in mind.
I had a group of friends in an AOL chat. The story is about two. Let's call them Maddy and John. I really liked John. Big crush on him. One time Maddy and I were chatting and she said that John was flirting with her so she wanted to ask him out because she never had a boyfriend before. I was devastated.
A few days later, John messaged me and asked why I have been ignoring him. I explained that I told Maddy I was going to ask you out (lie) but she beat me to it to see if she could get you to say yes first (lie) because she was mad at me for something (lie).
He believed me, dumped her, and we dated for 8 years.
EEK!
I'm not sure what happened to Maddy. We all stayed in touch maybe a year or two after this, and she had another boyfriend, but I was a 13 y/o.

A girl who sat in front of me in high school was very obese. She turned around and said something nasty to me. So, I put a few pieces of tape on a sheet of paper, did the ol' pat your back with a distracting comment; She walked around the rest of the day with a, 'WIDE LOAD' sign stuck to her back. Regretted it when I realized how many people were laughing at her all day.

I don't know if this counts, but I used to work at a restaurant and there was a couple in there with their baby. He was in a high chair and was definitely less than one year old. I noticed the kid looked like he was imitating my hand movements from across the room, so I starting moving them and watching him. He was definitely following everything I was doing, although a little jerkily, and he was mirroring the movements with his hands.
I was quite impressed. He was obviously bright for his age. After a few hand gestures, an idea occurred to me that was too delicious to pass up. I moved my fist to my forehead, and sure enough, he goes to imitate. He pushes his little hand into a ball, thrusts his fist up rapidly, and bonks himself in the face. There was this really confused look on his face like he was trying to figure out who hit his forehead.
I did it three more times because it was hilarious.

When I was a teenager, my cousin was this big player, womanizer, [jerk]-and-proud type who would play the nice guy, bang a girl, and then never call her again, laughing about it to everybody when she was all in tears after. You know the type.
One time this really nice girl started crushing on him. I kind of liked her myself, but she only had eyes for him. Finally, after a few days, I just straight up told her what she was in for. "Here's exactly what's going to happen if you go after him..." It was back-stabbing my cousin of course, and I had motive to do it, but I didn't care.
She ignored me, of course, and my prediction came exactly true. She actually tried to get together with me after, but it was more of an insult at that point. I basically told her, "Well, I told you so." And I walked away.

When I was a starving college student, I didn't drink (for health, money, and other reasons). I also drove an SUV, so that made me the perfect designated driver for everyone I knew. I would drive 8-10 people down to the (only) local bar and just drink iced tea for a few hours. The SUV drank gas like a fish, so the deal was always that everyone would chip in a couple bucks for gas. I soon noticed that as they got more and more drunk I could ask them for the gas money multiple times. They *never* figured it out. Soon, I was grossing $75 to $100 bucks a night. The next day everyone would sober up and complain they had no more money and I would just tell them "dude, you drank a lot last night". #feelsbadman.

When my dad suggested I shouldn't work such long hours as a freelancer for [low] pay and maybe find a better paying full-time job, I answered, "I can't, I need the money. Or what? You're gonna support me with your pay?"
Conveniently forgetting he did raise me till I was of working age. I felt like an absolute slimeball that day, especially when I saw that look of hurt on his face.

When I was in 5th grade, my friends and I wanted to be in the talent show. My friend (I'll call her Sarah) wanted to be a part of it. I told her that she needed to slim down if she was going to be in it with us. Sarah was and is still insecure about her weight. I felt like such a [jerk] and regret it to this day.

A friend asked me with tears in his eyes to spend the night over on the day his brother [passed] at a young age.
This was at another town where I'd either spend the night at his place or a hotel.
I chose the hotel because a girl I liked was gonna be there.

In 4th grade my school had this huge booksale and one of my friends bought this super sparkly obnoxious multicolored diary. We all thought it was perfect. Anyway this one friend of ours had been really pissing me off all week, told me I wasn't pretty enough to be Belle when we played princesses, [stuff] like that. Diary girl and [jerk] girl were best friends.
I went to diary girl's locker to move the diary to [jerk] girl's locker to frame her for stealing it, but couldn't find it. Diary friend caught me there and I said I just wanted to see it because it was so pretty, so she was like yea sure but when she opened her locker she couldn't find it either. I decided to stick to the plan and blame [jerk] girl for stealing it. I got in SO much trouble for starting rumors and got lectured by our teacher in front of my entire class.
Then my teacher actually caught [jerk] girl with the diary, turns out she had actually stole it. It was a really weird turn of events.

One time in third grade, I farted. It was one of those nuclear waste level farts, and all the kids at my table started freaking out. I didn't want to be caught so I started freaking out with them. I then pretended to sniff my best friend Margaret, and scrunched up my nose and yelled out that Margaret was the tooter.
I framed my best friend for the toot that I tooted.

In 7th grade band, I played a dumb prank by hiding my friend's trumpet. Thought he'd ask where it was and I'd laugh and show him, but he showed up a bit late and we all started. He said someone STOLE his instrument and the director stopped the entire class and made us sit in silence until someone would confess.
After several minutes of nobody saying anything, he declared that he was cancelling a planned trip to Disney. Everyone started groaning and some even stood up shouting for the culprit to come forward.
I stood up and said, "It was me. I did it." The director said "Thank you cfenton23 for trying to take the fall for the thief but you don't have to do that."
After class, everyone congratulated me and thanked me for trying to take the heat and blamed someone else. The person who was blamed eventually kept getting left out of social events and quit band all together while I was proclaimed a hero.

I left my fiance for another woman on the day we were supposed to move into our new house. I woke up at 5 am, left her sleeping in the hotel, grabbed all my stuff out of our shared storage unit, and drove it over to the new house. My name was the only name on the house. When she showed up later that day, I walked out on the porch and told her it was over and to please leave.
Then six months later, after the new relationship burned out, she took me back, and I did it again.
I am a terrible, terrible person.
