So true. Very good to know which decisions are one-way or two-way doors.

Not dupes. One decision is changing to a career in teaching, the other is getting out of teaching (this one is actually mine!)

Great point. So, if you do regret something, just write your feelings down on the website and let it go;)

Bahaha! The options are endless. That’s a good point though. Selfishly, I’d be interested to hear what people say since my sister is currently considering a phd.

Yup! I’ll get on it!

Good point. I’ve gone back and forth. I don’t want comfortable sharing to turn into spammming.

I like this idea! I could definitely see running an ML algo to cluster the Reasonings by keywords and then hide the shorter ones, with the assumption that the longer explanations are more in-depth.

Everyone’s experience of life is different, so there’s almost no universal advice to begin with. Buuut it is interesting to read about people’s reasoning, experiences, and their own thought process.

Ah, great point! I may rename that field so it’s more clear. Thanks!

:O it me.

Great idea! I need to go through my Decisions list and iterate on it.

Hi,

A question others often ask me when I'm struggling with a decision is "will you regret it?"

And that simple paradigm can make the answer clear.

But sometimes, I'm not sure. Sometimes, it seems like the options are equivalent – 6 one, half a dozen the other.

That got me curious about what other decisions people have made and whether they regret those decisions and why.

So, I made Did You Regret It – a directory of big life decisions and whether people regretted them, including their reasoning.

It might not actually help you make a huge life decision, but it's interesting to hear other people's stories in little bite-sized pieces.
