    Smoking. Being content to spend a life in rented property rather than committing to a mortgage and owning one's own home. Being insecure and possessive to the point where I felt smothered.
  • Cheating on me - after sixteen years of marriage and three kids, I became a single parent and although it has been hard, I don't regret it.

    Most of the above - but I was really put off one bloke cos he had little girlie hands. I'd hold his hand and cringe. I am VERY good at looking for things to end relationships. I get so fed up of people. Thankfully don't feel that with my BF now!

    Discovering a few weeks in that they were far removed from the person they had portrayed themselves to be. A liar always outs themselves in the end. So much to trip up over.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    Yep totally. Who needs the drama of dealing with a neurotic with trust issues!

    That would do it for me as well, not that I'm in a relationship.
