If you could go back in time, what would you do?

Question

ObscuredBeyond · Accepted Answer

Not waste time on trying to make friends from a place that clearly didn't appreciate me. Be more proactive, and not try so hard to please the unpleasable.

Also, have more of a spine toward some of my past accusers.

I'd know already who my worst enemies are, and would avoid their traps better. They'd have to resort to ever more desperate and extreme measures to hurt me. And it would backfire on them harder!

Oh my god the picture is exactly how I want to scold my younger self. Just smack that little bastard in her ugly face for being the most annoying human on earth.

I would go undo all the of the things I did to embarrass myself. Like having breakdowns all the time because of my stress problem. Couldn't I just do that somewhere private? Gosh you're so irrational!

Good question, what would I do? It would be complex to travel in time and be unoticed in a time where you exist. Although, going to the pass—if it's possible—would be extremely dangerous. You can in fact change it but never change the events of your original timeline.
