There's clearly regret as a topic I think... I think the moment someone regrets, there's a new beginning, since they've changed there's no sense in continued self-judgement and reflection, because they're simply not the same person anymore... but sometimes we regret unnecessarily - was it such a bad thing whatever we did? - were there good intentions behind it? - like it said at the beginning, this person wanted to be a good son, father, etc - and it reminds me of my dad's view of discipline - even if it was more than necessary they had good intention- because they thought it'd be good for them in the long run, like the bad-tasting mediciene that makes something better that would've become much bigger had it been allowed (like money problems), even if they don't realise the intention to appreciate it.
Looking back on my dad, I know how it is, when knowing what we know about life we can't always in good concience stand by and allow someone to make a mistake even if it's their will... we can't stop them but we try to advise them, but in doing so, maybe it's not such a mistake they're making

Only a good person could self-criticise. It's a somewhat rare ability. This person is clearly torn by what they do now know about people's feelings... this person has concience. They can't change events of the past, but that past nolonger applies to them since they've changed, but they could I guess in some cases get back in contact with the people from the past and hope they acknowledge and accept, if they don't, that's their fault for not being open, though caution would be understandable, as would be needing to see for themselves. Mistakes are an acceptable part of being human... they're how we learn... the hard way is much harder, but also much deeper, I've made some myself - like I really regret not dating when I had the chance, I hated myself for turning away genuine love over much shallower things like attraction... but I realise I didn't know then what I know now. I wish I could go back sometimes, but that was how I learnt. I sometimes wonder if I'm doing the right thing when I try to prevent people like xians learning life the hard way - looking back when they died and realising they wasted it, because if they did learn that way it would be deeper in memory... but as long as they learn one way or another I guess it's ok... because I guess the memories that set the context of what we know don't carry forward in reincarnation even if learning does.... we are who we are now... how we got there doesn't need to matter now.

Also, I'm honoured to be shown

In what way an excorcism plz?

It's good that it's worked I wouldn't've thought of letting it out! - as it's been so long since I vented much lol - forgetting has become my way lol, but hell, whatever works! You can keep a past that way

As a personal and intimite thing, yeah, or even their business as just how they enjoy themselves. I sometimes wish sex could be open, public and communal, like handshakes or hugs - if there were no barriers towards peope getting some there might not be as many insecurities around it, it wouldn't be so taboo, wouldn't be mistaken for love, maybe there'd be less rape if people didn't need to OR if they did get raped it'd be no bigger deal than tickelling or something - so there wouldn't be distress and they wouldn't get killed after or anything. Of course protected + hygenic though!

oh and also guys hopefully wouldn't try to trick girls emotionally into sex if they could get some from them easily anyway without having to do it - if it was open + honest, better for the women

Less of a big deal if they didn't feel dirty/violated so much through it. Forced againsst will is always a bad thing, but there are other things in life too where we have no choice, or that happen against our will... the experience is made worse because sex is so sorta hidden and personal, and people might rape less if sex was more easily accessabile, wrong as rape is in the first place
