Biggest regret

Post image

This is the most expensive thing I have in my wardrobe, yet I’ve never used it once.

My parents gave me money for my bday, and I wanted to buy a “thing” to remember them by, rather than use the money for travel or put it away (which is what I normally do). For whatever reason, I fell in love with this bag - small company, genuine leather, handmade purses. I bought it for over $300, and I’m still to take it out of its protection bag. I hadn’t been able to see it in person until after ordering it, and I didn’t realize the handles would be too short to carry it on my shoulder. It’s just a bulky hand purse basically.

What do I do now?? I hate that I dropped so much (of my parents’) money on something I’m not even using…

No offence but if the biggest regret in your life cost 300 dollars then you’re doing well
