Poor financial control in my very early 20s. Took awhile to crawl out of credit card debt.

Marrying someone who wasn't right for me.

I fooled around with another girl when I did a semester abroad in college. I broke up with my girlfriend at home, but now I realize that was probably dumb. She moved on and married someone else. I wish now that I’d stuck with her, but I messed up.

Leaving my marriage without doing anything / making any arrangements or agreements about the house we owned. Years later my credit score is great (I worked so hard, it was in the 500s when I left my ex) but although I desperately want to try to buy my own new home now, I doubt I will ever qualify for a new mortgage since my name is still on the old loan/house, though he pays. It's heartbreaking and I feel like I will pay for this mistake for the rest of my life.

This is fixable.

Grew up in an extremely religious, bigoted house. Refused to come out until I was 26 because I didn’t want to them to hate me. I should have just bit the bullet when I was 18 and been able to have a real young adult life.
