Personal Development for Smart People Forums - View Single Post - Achieving a goal, but then finding it isn't what you wanted

Quite a while ago I had a very simple goal: "Have an intimate relationship with a girl (for the first time)."

I eventually succeeded in achieving that goal, only to look back and realized that I liked guys better.

So yeah, I know exactly what it's like to achieve a goal and find out it's not really what you wanted.

In my case, there isn't too much regret though ... I'm just really happy I found out!
