Hey Pandas, If You Could Go Back In Time And Relive One Moment Of Your Life, What Would You Do? (Closed)

If it was just a moment in time I'd go back to the first kiss my husband and I shared.( We were married for 42 years.)

I have two and they are biggies....

1. I would go back to when my son was a couple days old. I was 14 the dad was 19 or 20 at the time and I had taken him to his house. Unknowing he had a girlfriend and he loudly proclaimed I am a crazy stalker and there is no way the baby could be his. I wish I never took him over there, he was undeserving of even knowing his name.

2. When I let social services and the foster parents convince me to sign my rights over to my children. For social services they told me they would be better without me. The foster parents convinced me the courts had no intention of reunification because I am gay. Social services was wrong, the same foster parents who eventually adopted them turned out to be monsters.

I’d go back and hang out with my dad for a day - he died very suddenly 5yrs ago at just 59yrs old, I very much wasn’t prepared for that.

I'd find the moment when the cells in our son's DNA started to go wrong, rewind the clock and not do whatever it was that made him the way he is. The doctors swear there's nothing that caused it and nothing we could have done differently but I'd give anything to give him a chance at a normal life.

I would return to the time I was expecting my first child and my mother and I were having trouble matching up the sections of a wallpaper mural in the nursery. We were punch drunk tired and laughing so hard Mum was afraid I was going to go into labor. Mum’s gone now and I would give anything to have that day back.

The first time my egg donor hit me, she told me if i told my dad (or anyone else) what she had done, she would make my broken arm look like a paper cut. it was the beginning of a pattern of physical abuse that would continue for another eight years; the mental abuse continues to this day.
i would have told an 8-year-old me to tell as many people as i could, as fast as i could.

I would go back to Feb 2013 when i met my ex gf for the first time. She was the best thing that every happened to me and i destroyed it.. I would go back and be the perfect partner i was supposed to be. Till this day i think of her all the time. Its been over 6 years and i still can't seem to find it in me to move on. I miss you KMK

I would make sure my son stayed home the day he died on his motorcycle
He was 23 and driving to work a van pulled out in front of him
This was a year and half ago and I miss him so much
I love you Kelton Alan Page RIP FLY WITH THE ANGELS
MOMMY LOVES YOU

Any time I was a brat with Dad, I'd love to go back and do over and spend more time with him. It's been about a year since he passed away and I still miss him so much.

I'd go back to 2016/2017, and tell myself that my "best friend" is a jerkweed who's using you and stripping you from your identity.

Took me until 2020 to fully realize that and deal with it, and until this year to get mostly over it and accept true friends love and acceptance. Still a bit of a loner who has a hard time trusting people though.

Go back to the day my son was born and died from a genetic disease.... just to hold him one more time.

I would go back to the day i saw my dad alive for the last time.

March 18, 2017
A friend I really really liked had asked me out to the movies. We saw Kong: Skull Island
I thought it was a date.
I dressed up a bit. Had my sister do my makeup (because I literally never did my makeup and didn't know how) met him at the theater...
He didn't look at me more than maybe 3 times the whole night. Once the movie ended he offered me a ride home. I said yes. I thought he'd do the whole, walk me to the door and good night kiss, thing. He didn't even get out of the car.
I was so embarrassed with myself that I didn't talk to him again for weeks. And I refused to tell him why.

2021 I ran into him again. We hadn't talked since graduation.

You know what he told me? He said he had the biggest crush on me in school. That he wanted to ask me out, but when we went to the movies he had gotten so nervous he could barely function so he stared at the screen the whole time. And then I started avoiding him after so he thought I'd been uncomfortable and took it as a sign I wasn't interested. I didn't correct him.

He's in a very happy relationship with a gorgeous girl. Super sweet and kind and so so good for him.

And I'm still single, pining over a past friend who has become a regular in the store I work at, and wishing I had just had the courage to say something that night.

I still have the movie ticket sitting in a jewelry box. And I'll probably have it for a long time still. He was my first crush, my first date, and my first "one who got away"

Probably worked out for the best though. I've come to the realization I'm very much Asexual so he likely wouldn't have been very happy in a relationship with me.

Honestly, I’d go back to one ordinary day when my kids were little. Laundry piles in the hall, cooking, cleaning, Disney videos, toys, etc. But this time I’d let all the cleaning go and stop worrying about how perfect other mothers seemed to be. I’d just sit in the floor and play with my kids. I’d look each of them in the eye and tell them over and over how very much they are loved. Like someone wise said “the days are long but the years are short”.

I had been thinking I would say I'd go back to the time my husband of 26 years proposed to me on top of the Space Needle at sunset. However, I've got vivid memories of that. Instead I'd go back to myself when my first child starting eating solid food and tell myself to feed my kids things like berries and tomatoes and cucumbers and zucchini so they wouldn't turn their noses up at them now. (They're in their 20s.)

Get away from my mom the day I turned 18 and never talk to her again

1. The first time I held hands with someone. I hope everyone has this memory. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2. If the question was to "go back and change something", the most interesting answers involve making the smallest change for biggest results. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . For me it would have been getting my tonsils out instead of leaving the plum sized gems in my throat. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . No sleep apnea, no mini-stroke (recovered). With life's twists and turns, there is no guarantee things would have turned out better. Qué será, será.

I would go back to the week my nana died. I would let her know that I love her, give her plenty of hugs, stay with her, and tell her that I loved her cooking, as I always said it was okay and never said good. I would say good bye, too.

I would go back to a year ago when I was taking care of my dying mom. I would get so frustrated and now I have to live with feeling like a could've done more or been nicer.

Prevent my mom and from getting married.
