Y'all came up with some good ones I've never considered. What I learned is that I cannot trust things to be what I believe them to be all the time. Just because something is supposed to be one way doesn't mean that a dishonest person is making them another.

I also learned I'm the last to know things.

A lot of the above . . .
and that withholding sex as a weapon is a deal breaker, that a red flag is if she doesn't have girlfriends, risk of getting involved with a southern evangelical christian, never marry a virgin as she'll always be curious about other men, to politely end a phone call when she enters the room, how to make the best guacamole and best chili!

Overall: Don't get really serious about anyone until they are done with all schooling, and have settled into a career, or at least a job.

Totally different topic, one of my exes said, "Whatever you do, don't skimp on the quality of your booze." That was excellent advice that I also have passed on to others.

How to embrace and love life. To cherish every moment as if it is the last. How to feel compassion, empathy and to not feel shame. How to pick just about any lock within a matter of seconds. How to take joy in the simplest of things.

Never trust anyone. It's unfortunate but my last ex cheated on me. Cheating in the Czech Republic is like a national pastime so needless to say now I don't trust anyone I meet assuming that they'll cheat too.
