Nice all confirmed!

I was wondering what would happen if you didnt send any fee with a
over 1 bitcoin transaction. Seems smart if you arnt in a hurry to send cause
you can save the money.

Of course. This is what the fees are supposed to be for.

Do you think it will ever get confirmed?  Also is there any security risk just leaving btc out between wallets?
Every transaction will eventually get confirmed. The time taken would be different however. There isn't any security risk to leaving Bitcoins unconfirmed between addresses. However, for some services, they would automatically stop recording transactions from that address after a specific amount of time. If that happens, you need to consult the support.

They will eventually get confirmed, we just have a pretty large backlog currently, so transactions with no fees are taking quite a while to confirm.  They will eventually arrive though.  In the future, just include a penny or two as a transaction fee and they will confirm in a significantly shorter time.

Worst case scenario is that they won't go anywhere and you can send them again. Are you in a big hurry?

They are all confirmed now! To speed up the confirmation, you should confirm some tx fees (cointape.com)! The network volume is too big to be handled!

https://blockchain.info/address/1NbkxHCjcRdbAAXe4YZx5i3eHqZ5r94GQF I just sent 3 different transactions and I didn't realize how dumb it was Sad Do I have any hope since it was for a relatively large amount of money? How long will this take? since it's about 2btc maybe it will do through...
The first one got confirmed, i hope that and the second tx will be confirmed as it is High Priority, but i doubt about the third as it is marked as Medium Priority.

Miners rank free transactions according to priority. Priority is calculated with input size, transaction size and coin age. With your input size is high, the priority would be high. With the priority of your earlier transaction being more than 67,351,244, it is possible for it to confirm quite soon. However, since your second transaction spends the change of the first transaction, it would need to wait for the first TX to confirm. It would also have a significantly lower priority.
