would like to have done, would love to have done, would hate to have done Hi. I have some questions related to would like to have done structure The book says I would like to have done something = I regret now that I didn't or couldn't do it. and I can use this structure after would love, would hate, would prefer. But I don't understand how to translate this. Q: I would hate to have been in his position -> Does this mean that "I imagine now, if I were in his position, I would hate it" which means I don't want to be in his position. Q: I'd love to have gone to the party, but it was impossible -> Is the meaning of 'would love to have done' similar to 'would like to have done'? Thank you.
