Regret is the most private form of grief. You can't really mourn a decision out loud — the social response is always the same: "everything happens for a reason," "you couldn't have known," "move forward." None of it touches the actual thing.
The actual thing is the specific knowledge of what you chose and what it cost. The version of your life that didn't happen. The moment you can pinpoint where something changed.
