  1. Christy:

    I dumped a guy for one of his friends, after confessing my love to the friend while smashed.

  2. Lacey:

    I broke up with him,
    I broke his heart.

    He broke mine first.

  3. Anonymous:

    I was born

  4. Ael:

    I didn’t answer my phone and he died. I cut my wrists. I left him for his friend. I loved a guy and went out with his sister. I am me.

  5. Chelsea:

    I didn’t get to him in time.

  6. Anne:

    lots of things. and theres stuff I still need to apologize for. Gossiping about a friend, acting untrustworthy in general, ruining his reputation. But theres stuff I dont plan on apologizing for. Saying no, blocking him, removing him out of my life. people have hurt me too. He’s used me, he’s tricked me. She built it up then tore me down, and every year I hate her for about 2 months for that. i cant get over it. He’s pressured me, she pressured me. I’m kind of a push over.

  7. Kelson:

    I told him, “Why are you sitting here? You know nobody likes you.”
    When everyone else in my math class chose their partner, I took one look at her and said, “I’d rather work by myself.”

  8. Toyed with another man’s heart. I still regret it to this day.

  9. Spencer:

    I didn’t love them enough, in the way they needed.

  10. Incrediburgers:

    I have never harmed a soul in my entire life.
    Except for that one time when I raped some chick who was stumbling through the alley behind our neighborhood bowling establishment.
    To this day, I still can’t believe how rude she was.
    But, hey – that’s life and the people with whom you have to deal.

  11. Ammyy:

    loved them.

  12. Incrediburgers:

    I caused so much pain to all those Internet users who were offended by my responses to the “deep” questions of life and/or were guilty of taking things way too seriously, particularly when they submitted themselves prostrate before the first charming face they saw on the web to offer them trite, hackneyed platitudes as enlightened wisdom… I mourn for all the suffering I’ve caused – the countless pre/mid-pubescent tears that have been shed, the irksome yet strangely appreciative facial expressions evoked, and, inevitably, the millions of senseless suicides that my writings have inspired, if not outright provoked.

    For all this, I apologize to the survivors and beg forgiveness from Zeus, Almighty God of Gods.

  13. Raine:

    Sending a nasty judgemental e-mail. It was wrong and she’ll never know how sorry I am. My ex-friend told me to do it, it’s no excuse but still. I have no idea the repercussions that happened but I’m still sorry.

    Aiding him in cheating on 5 different girls. Even though they didn’t know it. Well one did, and she’s still heartbroken, and trying to get him back after he dumped her for me. I’d feel worse though if I didn’t love him so much.

  14. Annie:

    I’ve screamed at my friends. I love them so much and I’ve hurt them. I’m a terrible person. They could never hurt me, and I’ve hurt them. I’ve never done it intentionally, but I’ve hurt them.

  15. marla:

    lied and lied to get attention from my boyfriend.

  16. Rebecca:

    Blindly followed lies that led to an extreme amount of pain and loss. I still don’t know what the right choice was. Here I am though. Waiting. Patiently waiting.

  17. MattAdd:

    I said I loved somebody when I really wasn’t sure that I did… we broke up years ago – and I lost contact with her.

    I’m not sure whether she truly loved me… I think she did.

    I’m in love now and I can’t imagine her not feeling the same way for me. That’s my greatest fear – loving and losing… and I hope that I didn’t hurt the girl I left years ago because I know what I would go through if my fiance left me. I love her with all my heart… and that pain would be unbearable.

  18. anonymous:

    when my parents saw cuts on my arms and legs and wondered where they went wrong…

  19. gita:

    Trying to spare pain to others, I have kept truth from them that should have been said earlier. Later the fact I had hidden something turned out to be infinitely more painful than the hidden thing itself. I have realized that what hurts others most is when you pretend to be someone you’re not, and they don’t know how to treat you, so they get confused dealing with your outer shell.

  20. Bethany:

    Everything. I’m so sorry…

  21. Evan:

    I lied. And I wasn’t there for you when you needed me most. I’m so sorry…I love you. Can you ever forgive me?

  22. andy:

    made her life miserable and cheated on her….

  23. Kathryn:

    “I want to protect you… I want to make you proud… I want the bad stuff to happen to me so it doesn’t to you…”

    “Too late. Nothing could ever hurt me more than you have.”

    I’m sorry. For everything I’ve said.

  24. Conor:

    I chose. One of them was going to get hurt, but I made the wrong choice, and I realised who I really loved when it was too late, damage was done. I hope I can rectify this somehow.

  25. sab:

    I broke up with him. But its wrong to be with someone you don’t like. I hope he see’s that someday.

  26. Ryann:

    I BELIEVE NOONE REALLY HAS THE INTENTION TO HURT SOMEONE PURPOSELY.

    GAWD KNOWS I’VE FUCKED UP MANY MANY TIMES IN THE PAST.. FOR EXAMPLE, EVEN NOW, I AM TRYING TO CONTROL THE WAY I TALK AND CONFRONT PROBLEMS WITH OTHERS.. I TEND TO SAY SOME REALLY HURTFUL THINGS THAT I DON’T EVEN MEAN WHEN THINGS DON’T GO SO WELL FOR ME..AND FOR THAT, THANKS FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME MY DEAR FRIENDS<3 AND I'M SORRY I'VE HURT YOUR FEELINGS.. OVER.. AND OVER .. AND OVER.. AND OVER.. I WILL TAKE IT ALL BACK IF I COULD.

    I THINK THAT PEOPLE WHO HURT OTHERS HAVE BEEN HURT A LOT THEMSELVES BEFORE AND UNFORTUNATELY TO SAY, THEIR EMOTIONS AND SELFISHNESS GETS CONTROL OF THEIR ACTIONS. MOST CASES, THAT'S THE ONLY WAY THEY KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH CERTAIN SITUATIONS..WHETHER IT BE YOU BEING AFRAID OF BEING JUDGED IF YOU VOICE YOUR OPINION AND FEELINGS, TRYING TO FIT IN, TRYING TO AVOID CONFLICTS, SELFISHNESS.

    IT CAN DEFINITELY BE AVOIDED BUT ITS A MATTER OF MORALS. WE SHOULD ALL BE CONSIDERATE OF EACH OTHERS POINTS OF VIEWS AND FEELINGS BEFORE WE GAIN INSTANT SELF GRATIFICATION OF EMOTIONS BY HURTING A LOVED ONE.

  27. ben:

    letting my fists do the talking, when I know there are better ways.

  28. Emma:

    My best friend who was like a sister to me asked if she meant anything to me after a fight we had.
    I told her “I don’t even know anymore”
    Hearing her say how much it hurt her made me cry.
    Thinking of it still does.

  29. Anonymous:

    I changed a country leaving a love behind.

  30. BA:

    Disappointed my mom, who has done so much so me.

  31. Amanda:

    Told my mom that I wish my aunt was my mother instead of her when I got into an argument with her. It really hurt her, and I still feel bad.

  32. Macey:

    I dont know. But I guess I hurt more people (unintentionally) than I realised…

  33. dani:

    a lot of things. but i think telling my friend that i cut was the worse. she didnt say anithing just started to sob.

  34. Nick:

    Not studying hard.
    Making rude comments.

  35. Delilah:

    when i jumped in front of an SUV last summer and he gave up his life to push me out of the way…only now i realize how selfish that was , and i can’t go back and fix it :'(

  36. Alex:

    i didn’t even give him the benefit of the doubt or a chance.

  37. missy:

    Made a grown man cry when I broke of an engagement.

  38. I don’t know how many wounds I’ve caused; that’s because I’m afraid to see their pain. I’m blunt with words, forceful in actions, and I keep the wrong secrets. Even worse, I’ve done some of it intentionally, and probably still hurting them now.
