My Greatest RegretsWhen I was still quite young, I was offered the chance to spend several weeks in the South of France. My Uncle was going to drive me down in his vintage MG sports car. There would be sun, sand and, crucially, French girls.
I was too scared of the French girls to go.
What do you regret not doing?

Melanie, MelanieAs I mentioned last week, the whole crush/being attracted to people thing has really only just happened to me. Many years of rubbish, interspersed with very, very occasional shining lights.
One such light was named Melanie. I met her at a work event, and while it didn't even occur to me that I fancied her, I coudln't stay away from her all night. It probably helped that I didn't have a clue what I was feeling, as I happily asked for her number and got it.
A few weeks of nauseating, nervous, hideous hell later (I actually thought I was ill) I ended up next to her in bed, clothes shed, and decorating the floor nicely. And what did I do? Almost nothing. By now, I'd worked out that there was something a bit exciting happening, and I bottled it, completely.
She was ready, willing, most certainly able, and quite, quite beautiful. Shortly afterwards, she moved away, and I've not seen her since. I regret everything I didn't do that night.
