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?

Argentinian non-sexI was working in an isolated town in China. I was the only westerner for 60km and looked forward to the weekends when I could meet up with others.
One week, I agreed to meet up with a gorgeous Argentinian girl callerd Lara. We met in an equidistant town, booked a hotel room (twin beds) and spent the day together.
She told me about her family, her upbringing, her ex-boyfriends. We drank coffee and talked culture shock. We visited ornamental gardens, got drunk and laughed.
I didn't know if I should try it on when she emerged from the shower later that night, hair wet and skin smelling of soap. I didn't know if it would ruin the mood. So I didn't try anything.
I didn't sleep. I didn't shag her.
Three weeks later she was with another English guy who lived near her town. I wish I could ask her if I did the right thing.
