I'm impressed I have to say!

It’s sort of exactly like that. You could see a cocktail for instance and think it looks a gorgeous colour and smells really fruity and delicious. But there’s no part of you that’s bothered about wanting to know what it tastes like and you’d rather stick to your drink of choice. That’s how I feel about tea & coffee.

Think they were trying to be funny maybe? But either way that's not something you do, that's something that happens to you!

Never:
done online dating
got a tattoo
been to a music festival
bought a pizza oven
flown in a helicopter
been on a jetski
climbed a mountain
danced en pointe
been sick from alcohol
failed an exam
worked in a professional kitchen

Ah makes sense! I totally get you about the peaches thing. I love sliced ones in tins but not keen on the fur so i tend not to eat them whole.

Taken or even been offered illegal drugs
Been in a threesome
Got a tattoo
Done Glasto
Drunk an energy drink or Tequila

@Meadows9 I think that you need to rectify this as soon as possible - there are some absolute beauties in the UK! Whenever you go abroad try and take a trip to visit a religious building in that country. You're in for a world of wonder if you seek it out! Honestly, even people who aren't religious tend to appreciate the beauty of sacred buildings.

Been pregnant.

I’d be interested to know whether some of you actually want to do these things? Aren’t you curious as what a fresh cherry or peach actually tastes like? Wouldn’t you like to learn to swim?

A friend of mine once told me he’d never tried mustard and now was never going to as it was an interesting fact he could continue to repeat about himself 🤣

Never been on a horse

Been on a hen do

Had a curry in 53 years

Aren’t you curious as what a fresh cherry or peach actually tastes like? No, not really. I’m not fussed about cherry flavour so can’t imagine that a fresh cherry would wow me. And if I eat tinned peaches, I don’t have to deal with the skin. I tasted mango for the first time last year and I like it, so passion fruit is my next one to try.

Wouldn’t you like to learn to swim? Not at all. I love being in the water and bobbling along with a pool noodle, but I’m quite happy treading water with one hand clinging onto the side. I wouldn’t swim lengths even if I could swim, and I hate having water up my nose and in my eyes (traumatic experience during my one and only swimming lesson when I was 10!) And at this point in my life, I’d look ridiculous with goggles, a nose guard and arm bands on, so I’m quite happy staying by the edge. 😂

Never been in a Greggs or eaten anything from there

It does feel different to me, though. I view social media as about connecting with people you know in real life, which is quite different to an anonymous forum.

I appreciate the definition above is broad and encompasses both types, but there is a distinct difference imo.

Ridden a horse

@Brendahollowayreconsider snap I haven’t either, or eaten oysters/crab

The things I haven't done are sporty, like skiing and sailing and surfing, and I wish I'd tried when I was younger and fitter! I don't think I'll be doing them now, although I have tried water-sking and swim fairly regularly.
I think being able to play games like tennis socially must be fun but I was not good at sports and we didn't have the financial ability to pay for tuition, so I never really learned. The PE teachers at my school were not interested in motivating or supporting the less able, and consequently I shied away from any sporty events rather than taking part and risking getting laughed at. I regret that I didn't push myself more.

Never tried a cigarette. Never want to either.

I wish I could say I'd never tasted tea or coffee as I abhor them both, particularly tea, but I've been railroaded into it a few times - 'oh, go on, I bet you've never tried it, you'll love it' etc. 🙄 Nope, nope, nope. It's difficult to convey how my taste buds process tea, but definitely not as something that's meant to be drunk, I'm convinced I'd be sick if I had to drink a whole mugful. Coffee I could keep down if I had to, but I really dislike it too.

I’ve never had a subway, apart from the one I had for my lunch today
