If you could relive any year in your past, which one would it be?

Question

Maybe it was one of the best years of your life so far. Or maybe it was a year where you did something absolutely stupid and you paid for it but you would want to go back and do things differently. Which one would you relive?

Hmmm…2004 was a great year for me. I was 25 for most of it. I was kind of small-time “famous” around town because I was a bouncer at a popular bar. I had “cool” friends, I used to roll with a bunch of football players from the university in town where I went to college. A few of them were big time and got to the NFL, so they were big men on campus. One of them was my roommate. Between hanging with them and working at the bar, plus just generally being in the college scene…. a LOT of girls. Oh, and I was working at Hollister and Abercrombie & Fitch, so I was fly too, on that company discount. Slinging weed, all kinds of money and excitement and women. Mannnnnnn, you feel like it’ll last forever, but the circus only stays in town for so long and time marches on. Crazy to think about in retrospect. And I can’t believe all that was going on at one time in my life.

Oh, also, my local sports teams were killin’ it. The New England Patriots were in the middle of solidifying their dynasty status with young Tom Brady, they won their 2nd Super Bowl in February of that year, and were awesome the next season too, when they also would win the next Super Bowl. That was still so fresh and new to me, I grew up when they were a league laughingstock.

And the Boston Red Sox finally broke “The Curse Of The Babe”, winning the first World Series since 1918, when they traded Babe Ruth the following year. AND WE WON IT RUNNING THROUGH THE NEW YORK YANKEES, IN HISTORIC FASHION. The Sox were down 3 games to none in a best of 7 series in the American League Championship Series, on the brink of elimination. They did the impossible and won four straight games to take the series and go on to the World Series (which was boring by comparison), which I believe is the only time it’s ever been done.

But I’ll never forget being at work for Game 7. We had an outdoor deck, and a neighbor who frequented the bar had a projector, show we showed the game outside on a huge sheet. We bought a bunch of cases of champagne, and I remember when they finally got that finally out, everyone went NUTS. I was spraying champagne all over the customers from atop a picnic table. Just a euphoric feeling I’ll never forget.

Yeah, just all-in-all…. that was Prime WhiteSteve. I was on an absolute HEATER with the ladies. I was working a good amount but at easy jobs where it was mostly socializing. Late to bed, late to rise. Still felt like I had endless time. Somehow I was playing Madden 2004 & 2005 and GTA: San Andreas through all this. When did I sleep?🤔 Yet I feel like I slept til I woke up most days.

Those were the glory days, for sure. Can’t believe that’s 20+ years ago now, holy shit. Feels like 5, haha

I had a pretty great time all my life, but I'll say 1990.

I was 36 that year and met a 30 year old named Petra. She turned out to be hypersexual and orgasmic. She was also my idea of the physical ideal for a woman - 5'1, under 115 lbs, super cute face, blue eyes, curly-wavy natural blonde hair, flawless, peaches and cream skin, and a figure like a Playboy model (not a lean Instagram model). We wound up living together for almost two years. I loved everything about her from the way she looked and dressed to her personality.

I had girlfriends from the time I was 16, but sex with her was far beyond compare. It was actually unbelievable. With her, I was a sexual god. I still think back on it with awe.

It would have to be 1977! I was happily married and didn't have any financial worries.
My husband and I got along great together 💕 and I was working and became pregnant in July of that year. I never had morning sickness and felt great the entire time I was pregnant.
He was in a rock band playing lead guitar 🎸 and singing as well. I loved going to practice with him and watching him playing his 🎸 guitar. He was a fantastic musician.
Happy happy happy year 1977!

Well it definitely would not be any of my 3 worst high school years. 9-11. Yeah, it felt like 9/11 sometimes. I hated it with a passion because I got made fun of and bullied a lot by other girls. It only stopped when I beat the shit out of a couple of them in the girl's bathroom. Three girls entered, one came out. 😡

My Sophomore Year of College. I was at the height of my powers, it was before I suffered a knee injury and my speed and explosion were elite. Truly feel I would have been drafted if not for the injury.

Just one portion: I would avoid meeting a big man on campus a week before my 18th birthday, just a few days after enrolling in college.

1991, I was a kid, 6 years old, grew up as a Chicago Bulls fan, would have been nice to see the Bulls win championships in 1991, 1992 and 1993, I saw them win their last 3 in 1996, 1997 and 1998 when I got a bit older. Just simpler times in the early 90s as a kid.

petitedollbabee · Answer

None, the best years I've had have also been the worse years, as you can’t have the good without the bad in comparison. And I wouldn’t want to change anything in my past, as it’s all led me to where I am now.

HaveNoName · Answer

1978 when I was at middle school stage with no worries about college, job, marriage or family life.

I kinda liked most of the 80s. But I can't specify any year to be "the best year of my life".

1998. I was 17 and that was the best summer of my life. I miss the days of 0 responsibilities and just having fun as my sole purpose.

Crazzyyworld · Answer

I wish I could go back but then it won’t make much of difference. Society is judgmental and full of pimps and hookers now and back then the same.
