Six Word Story:

I wish I had been there.


About The Six Word Story:

As you guys know, I love writing these six word stories for you. And from the feedback and responses that I have received on them, I am happy to say that it seems you like reading these little stories too. I am really thankful for that since it is always a win when both you and your audience enjoy the same thing. It gives me a reason to continue writing these, knowing you enjoy them so much.

This is another one by my dad! He thinks it’s about someone who wishes they could have been there to support someone but my mum thinks it’s more like FOMO. My six word stories do tend to be a bit darker. Especially more recently. Actually, although my posts are often more lighthearted I think my writing always tends to be a bit darker. My poetry and short stories can be like that too. And it seems like my dad got the memo when creating this one lol!

How would you interpret this six word story? Have you ever experienced FOMO? Have you ever regretted not being there for someone when they needed you? Let me know which one you think it is in the comments below!

    1. I think this is all of us stuck at home atm

  1. on the other hand, perhaps not

    1. Ooh yes the perfect introvert addition to the story!

  2. Why do these six words resonate with my regrets of possible outcomes that did not manifest because of not pursuing things? This spoke to me, I love this ❤️

    1. I’m so glad you can relate and I feel the same way because my anxiety does stop me from doing certain things and then I regret not doing them.

      1. Yes, I surely felt that! Have a nice day! ❤️

  3. I concur with your dad.

    1. I agreed with him on this one too.

  4. Beautifully written 😂

    1. *♥️♥️♥️

    2. Thank you so much!

      1. Hey Pooja, I’ve sent in my guest post. Do check your mail and let me know.

        1. Thanks for letting me know- I’ll check!

  5. I also wish the same….

    1. We all do right now I think

    1. Thank you!

      1. You’re welcome

  6. It’s sad and beautiful.

    1. Thank you!

  7. Wow G! 👌✌

    1. Thanks!

  8. I think I agree with your mother on this one.

    1. Ooh interesting!

      1. For once I’m seeing things optimistically!

        1. Haha that’s really great!

  9. See I see it in a totally different way. I miss out on things because I have an anxiety disorder, and I think it is the regret of having not gone to the event after the fact.

    1. Yeah as someone who has anxiety I can actually really relate to what you’re saying.

  10. I’m loving the parents editions! I’m gunna have to side more with your mom but I could totally see where your dad is coming from!

    1. They love getting involved! I was talking to them on the phone today and they were asking about the post and who won lol!

      1. They sound great!

  11. I’ve said these plenty of times and its usually for when I think I should’ve been there to support someone <3

    1. I’ve been there too so I can definitely see it that way.

  12. …then I could hold her hands

    1. Aww that’s such a nice addition!

  14. I wish I was there too!

    1. That’s all of us right now!

  15. This resonated with me. Just a few months ago something happened with my loved one that is living overseas and I wished I had been there to comfort him and support him. At first, I got jealous of the people who can be there for him physically and comfort him. However, I’ve become grateful because a lot of people are there for him, guiding him ❤️

    1. I think my parents feel similarly because I live in a different country and they aren’t able to be there for me physically. I’m glad your son is not alone.

  16. You didn’t miss anything, trust me.

  17. I guess this six word story thing is similar to photography…

    1. This is more about the “six words” but the image does play a role.
