Does anyone have any links to interviews or know anyone who has lived a sheltered life, e.g. worked constantly, took no risks, never had sex, no friends, stayed at home watching TV, reading etc.
As a 28 year old virgin who spends every evening and weekend sat in bed watching TV, I want to know if I will be regretful as I approach death.

Grass is always greener. Everyone is regretful before death. So repent your sins and ask God for forgiveness while you still have a chance.
I cannot imagine regretting it because I am in such a hurry to be dead. My only regret is that I have to persist day after day against my will. Would be great if I could will myself to stop breathing or have a heart attack.

I feel the same and actually have thought the exact same. But what if at 45 our mindset changes and we realise we wasted our chance.

I'm 43, friend. Every year of my life seems to have been worse than the one before it. What the fuck could change? The world around me has gotten worse year after year and I am a prisoner in this hellscape. I just cross off the years on the wall hoping for the day it all ends.

Yeah youre right, guess I just wish I could have friends etc.

Probably, but it's pointless. Regret is based upon the illusion that things could've turned out differently. Or alternatively, it's the belief that even if your hindsight could be applied, that it would be accurate and helpful. Something that may feel like a mistake may very well have turned out even worse could things have happened differently, it's beyond our capacity to know.
I'm in a similar situation to you OP, aside from being a couple years younger. It's easy to say you can attempt to change, but not so easy to know if the mountain is even worth the effort of climbing. The more time that passes, the taller that mountain becomes, and there are no guarantees that attempting to fix yourself will result in a positive outcome at this point.
