  • My drunken stupor after the Mardis Gras Pub Crawl
  • The feeling when someone I was dating told me I wasn't attractive
  • Seeing my dog run over by a car when I was around 8 years old
 
There's things that I could have passed on experiencing but as far as forgetting I'd have to say no, everything that's happened is part of the value system and sense of self I have today. Whether its something I've done or have experienced due to someone else's influence, it's all there for me to draw on for the decisions I make in how I live my life each day. I know I don't always make the right choices but even the wrong course of action is a learning experience to draw from.
 
A lot of books, movies, and shows I've read/watched so I could go through and relive the experiences again.
 
* Seeing one of my beloved cats run over and killed by a car.
* Telling my mother about my self harm, and her telling me she didn't care.
* Feeling like my parents and family didn't love me.
* My ex boyfriend.
* Childhood abuse.

Then again, I suppose if I forgot these things I might not be the person I am today, and I'm actually starting to like myself for a change so maybe I shouldn't forget anything...
 
Being bullied for years as a child.

All the stupid things I've said and done that still come back to haunt me and give me panic attacks at 2:30am.

My ex-girlfriend (though it's rather pointless unless I get back the years I pissed away trying to make her happy).

Sorry to hear it didn't work out with your ex. Relationships are so difficult these days.
 
The notebook. I want that memory gone and replaced with like... a good movie instead.
 
The physical abuse, I guess. Don't think I deserved that... at least. The other things I went through, I guess I'd want to remember them as learning experiences.
 
Yes learning experiences. But a while ago my former best friend (alcoholic) tried to kill me by pouring petrol over me and.... Somehow I'd like to forget that. And the events that followed.

Oh **** that's brutal. :\ Why would he do that?? I'm glad you're unharmed - or were you?
 
There're some events of my life that i really wana forget. I wish there was a 'delete' button for memory too.
 
IF we forget then we are not as we were when we remembered. Therefore, we would be different people if we forgot, and this raises the question of who we would be.

That makes total sense indeed.
