    In summary, regret, according to Marcel, is a functional behavior to help us make better decisions. It also promotes reparative behavior meaning because we felt regret before, we change our behavior to make us (and others) feel better in our relationships. This is enlightening because most of us don't like the feeling of regret and, almost always, only label it as a negative emotion. Mabuhay from the Philippines! :)

    I have regrets. I live with them. I feel them to a certain extent. But it doesn't stop me from doing the thing's I do In my regular life. I think that feeling's sometimes get in the way of Us as a species doing exemplary things.

    2:02 How can you say that those facial expressions are due to feelings of regret? Could also be caused by shame/humiliation, which I'd argue is different than regret.

    I agree with you. Emotion can be constructed.

    I think regret and guilt are closely tied with each other. If you feel guilt and anger with yourself for making a desicion, you feel regret. If you feel regret, you feel guilt and humiliation over what you did. Don't know if you agree but just thought I'd offer another perspective on top of yours. :)

    Regret Is Enslavement: the Opposite of Enslavement Is Opportunity. 😶. 1. "Regret is the emotion of wishing one had made a different decision in the past, because the consequences of the decision one did make were unfavorable. Regret is related to perceived opportunity."
