Context

I had told you, I would've done a lot of things differently.

Can someone please complete sentence so that the past perfect tense can be used in this context.

Thank you.

Without a lot of context about the best you can do is add "earlier", "previously", or similar adverbs to the past perfect clause. I'm not sure what you're asking for, but these might do. As I had told you earlier, I would've done a lot of things differently.
