Dang, girl, I didn't have any of your picks on my "anti-list"!
Never get involved with a religious or conservative woman.
Never buy my drugs from a house that looks worse than mine.
Never count on opioids to cure my chronic pain, but never believe the docs that all of a sudden act like they don't exist for you!
Never discount a long distance relationship, as hell, who knows!
Never say never, which sorta links into the last one!
Never assume I have the final answer! I'm sharp, but by no means perfect. Realize that I may be full of shit!
Never again automatically discount the decision to not extend my enlistment. I could have 'used' the service for a bunch of schooling, & still served! Not my brightest move!
Watch my tendency to be too much of a "goody-two-shoes" in relationships, & let real experiences pass me by because I was too much a "thoughtful" guy. Idiot, quite often, not necessarily doing the right thing, as being 'righteous', almost as bad as the religious at times! I was far too often a prude, even tho I had been through some very "different" situations!
I'd like to say never put myself in the position of taking care of my Mom, & tho I often sorta wish that, she stays home due to my being here. She feels safer & more secure, & I can't take that away from her!
A lot of things I did were likely dumb as shit, but I did them, & hopefully learned & experienced.
