You forgot your best friend’s birthday last year., Oh no! If I hadn't forgotten my best friend's birthday, I wouldn't have felt so guilty for weeks. I would have bought her those expensive earrings she wanted, and we would have had a big party. She probably wouldn't have been so upset with me, and we would have gone on that trip together in summer. I still feel terrible about it!, You chose to study economics instead of art., If I had chosen art instead of economics, my life would have been completely different. I would have become a painter or a designer, and I wouldn't be sitting in an office now. I would have travelled to Paris or Florence to study, and maybe I would have had my own exhibition by now. But on the other hand, if I hadn't studied economics, I wouldn't have met my best friend at university, so it's not all bad!, You didn’t say goodbye to your grandparent the last time you saw them., If I had known it was the last time, I would have said a proper goodbye. I would have told them how much I loved them and I would have taken a photo together. I wouldn't have been in such a hurry to leave. Looking back, if I hadn't been so selfish that day, I wouldn't have so many regrets now., You moved to another city when you were 15., If I hadn't moved to another city at 15, I would have stayed with all my childhood friends. I would have gone to the same school and probably wouldn't have learned to be so independent. But you know what? If I hadn't moved, I would never have met my wife, so I think everything happened exactly the way it was supposed to!, You bought a really cheap phone instead of a good one., Haha, that was a disaster! If I hadn't bought that cheap phone, I wouldn't have spent so much money on repairs. It broke after two weeks! If I had spent a bit more, I would have saved myself so much stress. And if I had bought the good one, I would probably still be using it now. Never again!, You fell asleep during an important meeting/class., If I hadn't fallen asleep during that meeting, my boss wouldn't have been so angry with me. He would have given me that promotion, and I wouldn't be in this dead-end job now. If I had drunk coffee before the meeting, I would have stayed awake, and everything would have been fine. I still cringe every time I think about it!, You didn’t learn English when you were a child., If I had learned English as a child, I would speak fluently without an accent now. I wouldn't have struggled so much with grammar at university, and I would have been able to read all those books in the original. But honestly, if I hadn't started learning later, I probably wouldn't appreciate the language so much. Every mistake taught me something!
