I cannot make you not regret it. I can hope that you don't. I get the feeling it wasn't in you, as in: you are not the type of guy to not reach out to help to fix, as suckage as this lesson was to learn, you wouldn't learn it any other way, you had to figure it out on your own. I did.
On that note...

Not to get her back with you, but to get her back for them?
