My greatest mistake in life was believing in love and trusting a vaginarian. Whenever I remember that particular foolishness of mine, I feel like squeezing my balls. I now know better to visit my family when I need love and to get a dog when I need companionship and loyalty.

I helped a colleague at work. housed and fed her because her residence was far and commuting to and fro work daily was difficult and costly for her. She robbed me blind. My laptop, Iphone and money. Laptop had all my lifeswork, manuscripts, soundtracKs, screenplays, travel documents and saved passwords. She claimed to be ill on a workday, so she stayed home while i went to work. The rest is history.

Never take a work colleague, stranger, acquaintance, church member or even friend to your house. it never ends well.

Keep your relationships at arms length. Trust NOBODY
Ehya kind hearted woman taken advantage off. Don't stop being kind k, good people will always appreciate you. Bad people wont

mine is joining a cult group during my University. I still regret it, though l learnt a lot from that. I am now in a better position to council young guys.

What's the name of the cult
Did you kill anybody
How does someone avoid cultists
Should you report them to the police

I haven't made any expensive mistake.

One thing I have realised in life, most of the mistakes are repeated ones but in a different form. If you can learn from your past mistakes, avoiding expensive ones should not be hard

If you have not made expensive mistakes, you actually maynot be great in this life.

My relationship choices. And that's why I'm taking time off dating/relationships to focus on myself, love myself, revamp, and work on me all-round.

Truth be told, the choices we make reflect our personalities.

Wished I started weed earlier in life i would not have made so many mistakes, i trust people so fast and it kills my business. Right now i can see through words and actions without glitches.
God has a way of preparing all men though.
NOTE. WEED FINDS YOU NOT THE OTHER WAY ROUND, TRUTH IS WEED IS NOT FOR EVERYONE.
LOVE...
