Today, I got an e-mail from a guy I'd had a one night stand with. He wanted to get together to talk about it. Turns out he's in rehab and he wanted to address the biggest mistakes he'd ever made in his life. I am a on a drug addict's list of regrets. FML

yeah...one night stands are something a lot of people regret. Maybe you shouldn't be so easy.

I don't know why you're so offended. In rehab, one of the steps is making an inventory of everything you did that was harmful to yourself, that you regretted. One Night Stands aren't usually anyone's high points.

lol why does he have your e-mail if it was a one night stand? this is kind of hard to believe...

Don't read so much into it, and neither pay attention to all these dumb comments. If he wants to meet is NOT because you personally are one of his biggest regrets. What he regrets is to had been doing drugs, and doing one-night stands instead of trying the hard way and get into a stable relationship. I guess you'll understand once you meet him, if u decide to go for it.

Don't take it so personally, it's not like you had invested anything more into him or that he's specifically targeting you. Obviously he just regrets having been a tramp instead of having meaningful relationships. It's actually kind of admirable for him to be standing up to his own self-destruction like that.

you shouldnt be offended like that he probably just regrets treating women that way

maybe thats why you shouldnt have one night stands..

This is a twisted point of view. Like many people here, I think your one night stand (not YOU) was a regret because he'd have liked ideally to build a different relationship or bond with you. He likely regrets every second of his life that he had spent under the influence. Get over this insecurity and be a bit more appreciative of the gesture. He's making significant steps in the right direction by confronting his problem and trying to make amends with other people he may have hurt in the past. That's huge, and possibly more than you've done in the way of self-improvement. No, I know what you're thinking. But even you, as the rest of us, have a ways to go before reaching perfection. There is always a lot of room for improvement. I say this for myself also. That doesn't mean you have to rekindle things, but be kind. I sure hope you didn't make him feel miserable for his efforts. If you did....man up and fix it. It's the least you can do for someone who's standing on shaky feet, trying to begin his life again and fix what he's done also. All the best to you. All the best to him.

Why would it matter to you? Do you care about this guy?

so i'm curious. how different does everyone think the comments on this post would be if the girl was in rehab and the guy was the one writing this? sexists assholes.

lol how did he get ur email if it was a one nightstand

Ignore all these nasty people love. There's nothing wrong with a one night stand when you want to have a bit of fun. And if this guy does regret sleeping with you for whatever reason, I think it's pretty selfish of him to contact you and try to get you to meet up and talk it through. What about your feelings? Put yourself first. So what if he's in rehab, you're not responsible for that and it's up to him to get himself better, nobody else.
