If you knew then what you know now, what would you have done differently?

Like with jaybird, I ended up in a hotel room during a swim meet with an opposing school's coach. I was in high school. He was hot and started with a massage then kissing my neck and my back and we eventually started making out. He wanted me to suck him and when he started playing with my hole I freaked out and left. I should have stayed and given my cherry to him.

I wish I knew at 21, 22 what I know now at 50-ish. I was hitchhiking around the world and in Australia at that time and picked up by a gay guy which I turned down... he would have converted me probably much sooner what i know now... I went with a couple of gays to the horse races in Brisbane but nothing happened because I wasn't into gay stuff although I din't mind them as just nice people... I liked women more at that time but didn't get them at all so I just should have become the pig with the gay guys...

Now i don't get enough of either... ;-)

Great question. But unfortunately I'm not the type of guy who has many regrets. Even though I started occasionally barebacking in the early 2000s (and pozzed a decade later), I can't truthfully say that I wish I had been a cumdump earlier because maybe I wouldn't have been as lucky with my health as I am now. I do wish I had not allowed myself to gain so much weight after college, but then again that meant I was less popular with the guys and more focused on my career which has paid huge dividends. I think the 1993 version of myself would be shocked that I give and take loads but proud that I work hard and play hard. I've always believed that if you are truthful about what you are doing and willing to accept the consequences, what more can people ask of you?

I guess I would have started barebacking right from the start. But beings I was a "late bloomer", if I had started, it would have been in the 80's, probably would have caught 'the bug', and died of aids years ago. Still trying to catch up from my late start (LOL)....

#1  I would have told myself that Impulse Control is sometimes overrated.  It took entirely too many years for me to yield to temptation and suck my first cock.  Once I did, I was hooked.

I don't know if my wife would have been as understanding when she was younger, but if she had been I would have been far more active than I have been. 

[Guest Pwrfkme06]

I would have started taking loads in high school at 15 and looked for men over 30. I was a twink at 6'3" 160 and did work out just thin. I would have love to make older men happy everyday and even cruise the park everyday.

I would have hit the gym at 15 yrs old instead of starting at 27. Looking back i can assure you that the issues of desiring to be slutty or bareback from the start don t mean a thing if nobody want you

The question is never "how many guys you willing to do' but "how many guys are willing to do you"

Had i been a muscle stud at 25 I would have never needed to fantasize; I'd simply did it

If I've done when I was 20 that I do now, I probably would've had aids and been dead before 1990. I was scared shitless of aids in the 80's (I was 20 in 1983). I couldn't stand the thought of condoms, so I only sucked cock, but never let anyone cum in my mouth, I only fucked people I knew (in other words, I didn't fuck very many), so there was mostly common jerking off.

 

Now I fuck and dump loads, and I also take loads from strangers (both orally and anally), and am still neg. Who would have believed?

 

And I received an invitation for acting in gay porn. If I'd been then as I am now, I probably would have accepted, because I wanted to.

Theres a TON of stuff I would have done different in my teens and 20's in general life.  I wouldnt say they are regrets, but if I had the knowledge I do now I would be in a much better place.  

 

Sexually? not much.  I'm glad I played it safe enough to stay neg until PrEP came out.  I've had plenty of good sex in my life, and came out a reasonable age.  I dated some great guys and some bad ones.  but overall I am happy with the stuff I have done as a gay man.  

[lioilk]

I may only be 27, but I still regret from time to times that i haven't been sluttier in my fisrt 20s. I was  shy and not happy with my body and wanted to wait for the the good one. Now I'm in a  relationship with a partner who fucked literally hundred of guys between when he was 23 and 25, and i feel jealous. I now enjoy good sex ,but I got in this relationship just when I was starting to get slutty. I regret I did not act like this sooner and did not got fucked by as many guys as I could. I wish I had been aware of my sexual drive and attractiviness sooner.  I'm trying not to have too many regrets though, as I wish plenty of fun is still possible.

I would have had a lot more sex with both men and women in high school and college!

[bttmsubslut]

I would have gotten into porn

[NLbear]

In general I am happy with who I am now, but I am sometimes wondering too what my life would be like now if I had made different decisions in the past. There were lots of opportunities that would have changed my life completely.

 

I wish I went to the gym when I was a lot younger and be more of a muscle guy now (and a muscle pup then with a glorious ass) than just a hairy guy with sort of a belly now.

 

When I went to college at 18 yo and was looking for accommodation I wish I had accepted the offer by three oversexed gay guys to rent a room in their house. I declined because I was scared to accept but regretted that soon enough when I discovered the joys of living in a big city as a young and attractive gay guy. I am sure that if I had accepted I would have been fucked by all three every day (and no condoms at that time). Instead I had to cruise the park at night to get some dick and led a double life.

 

I wish I hadn't been so panicky after my relationship ended in my early thirties and saw every date as a potential new relationship and a threat to my single status. I may not be living alone right now. But then again monogamy doesn't seem to be for me.

 

I wish I had handled my finances better when I was still in high paying jobs instead of spending most of it on luxury vacations and things I really didn't need (being Material Boy). Maybe I wouldn't be living in a small apartment now, unemployed and seeing the bottom of my savings account.

 

And a few other decisions that would have made a difference, certainly sexual.

 

[averageslut48]

No regrets here. I started at the age of 13 y.o. And I had never safe sex. I enjoyed to be a whore and do so today. I know, who and what I am and I am proud of it.

I'd have escorted in college. I had the opportunity and offers, but didn't feel right about it and had too many hangups. The money sure would have made college easier and, who knows, might have made some social contacts. Also, at the time, I assumed escort meant bottoming and I wasn't into that.
