I would have regretted it if I would agree to marry you. vs I would have regretted it if I agree to marry you.

The correct phrase is: 'I would have regretted it if I had agreed to marry you.' The first phrase is incorrect due to the use of 'would' and 'would' together, which is redundant. The second phrase is also incorrect because 'agree' should be in the past tense to match 'would have regretted.'
