Hello all!
It´s all about this sentence:
I have achieved everything I ever wanted.
To be more concrete I wonder whether I can use past simple in the second part of the sentence if I wanted to emphasise that "I wanted to achieve this and this..." = e.g. at the beginning of the long "journey" and now "I have achieved it". Would it be perfectly possible even in British English to make distinction like this or would you prefer present perfect in both parts of the sentence?
Thank you!
