Walking for exercise. I like biking and running and all kinds of other things that my joints can't tolerate. I can go out on the same walking path I'd normally run... and hate every minute. Hate walking. For some reason I feel like everyone is judging me if I'm walking. It's a really weird problem. So when I do go walking, I wear jeans to make it look like I'm walking for a purpose. And that's uncomfortable after a couple km, making me dislike the activity even more.
They look so delicious but every time I've tried one I'm always so disappointed. And I've tried many from all different places that people swear are "the best" and still no.

Who wants to chip a tooth on a baked dessert? (i've never had a canoli that wasn't rock hard)

Same! Although, one of H's coworkers bought him a giant slice of what I believe is cannoli cake for his birthday yesterday and that was actually pretty tasty. So I guess I like cannoli in cake form.
Alcohol. I can’t stand the taste of beer, wine, hard liquor. I’ll have a sweet fruity slushy drink once or twice a year (like a strawberry daiquiri). I’ve tried dozens of beer and wine and just can’t get past the alcohol flavor.
Yogurt Exercising Sushi cooking The outdoors People Going out to the bars. I miss so many fun times with friends because I just can’t handle that scene.

I've had a Cannoli Dip before that was amazing, I just can't do the actual Cannoli. And I can't place my finger on what I don't like about it, I just don't.
Try this recipe. I was a very late convert (35ish?) after dreading it for years. A friend served this and I though Eh. it's fine (which was a vast improvement over my standard response). Made it myself a few months later to force the issue. Now love it and even crave it sometimes.
Personally, I don't add the red pepper and only cook it five minutes after the garlic.

same! I HATE walking. It is so boring.
tripleshot, I wish I had that problem, lol. I love the way most boozes taste.
I want to like gardening because I love the way gardens look. But fuck, I loathe it.
Oh, I also really want to like macarons. I had such a sense of accomplishment the one time that I made them and they are just so pretty and colorful, but every time I eat one I take a bite and end up throwing the rest away.

They have to be from a couple of local bakeries for me to like them. Otherwise, they're gross.
On a similar note - I wish I could like black and white cookies. They are such an NYC staple and I should like them but I've never eaten one I enjoyed. I also hate rainbow cookies but I don't want to like them at all.
Live music. I like concerts but to go to a bar and listen to a band? Pure hell. It's too loud, people are screaming at each other to be heard, and I spend the entire time wishing I was anywhere else.
Vegetables. I really want to eat healthier, but I just hate most vegetables. Housework Manicures. I love painting my nails, and I wish I could go to get it done, but I can't stand having people touch my nails.
Oh god yesssssss. Everybody is always excited when it gets hot, and all I want to do is curl up in a dark, cold room. I think it’s because I’m naturally sweaty and my SSRI makes it worse. I’m sure this contributes to my hatred of biking. There is no such thing as a leisurely ride that doesn’t leave me sweaty and gross.
I flippin hate summer. I live in MN and people look at me weird when I say that I love winter. I mean it gets cold and you put on more layers. When it is hot, what do you do after nakedness - peel off your skin?
My sister lived in Vegas and she just cannot understand why I refuse to visit her in the summer. Ummmm because that weather is a living hell for me.

We had a cannoli cake as our wedding cake and it was the best thing ever.

Indoor concerts- too loud, there's usually a few people smoking pot, it's uncomfortable, and I'm short. I hate it and I don't have fun. I've gone to a few on the beach since moving out here and I like those. I sit toward the back to avoid the crowd but enjoy the music
Skiing/Snowboarding- I hate the feeling of being sweaty in all of those layers. I also hate the feeling of not being in control.
Hobbies- I have literally no hobbies. I work out because I need to. I cook because I need to. I enjoy aspects of both but I wouldn't consider those hobbies.

I have never had it before last night, but it was definitely good. I'm not really a cake person either, so the fact that I went back for more is saying something.
Summer. It’s too hot to be outside for longer than 15 minutes but people insist it’s great out. I live 10 minutes from the beach but hate the beach and fear the ocean. And everyone sees it as a time to party and let loose and I hate being out of routine at all ever.
YES to the bolded. It's one of the many reasons I prefer winter, or really just most of the rest of the year. Our social calendars are quickly filling up because of graduation parties, weddings, festivals, other social events, etc. (plus birthday parties but that's not necessarily tied to the summer for everyone). It happens like this every year and I always yearn for those weekend days here and there where we have nothing planned. Eeeeeeeverybody wants to do something. Yes, we could say no but I do like getting together with people. Just not within a short period of time.

I really like summer, but the air quality and/or humidity gets to me. Of course, I'm asthmatic, so that's why I can't deal with some of our summers. I'm usually fine till it gets to about 85 degrees.
My lungs really don't like the winter either, though.
Another one who wishes I actually liked more vegetables because it would make eating healthy so much easier. I also wish I liked fish for the same reason.
Honestly, sometimes I just wish I didn't have such a strong aversion to lettuce. Everyone thinks it's weird. The best responses I've gotten are people saying that iceberg lettuce doesn't have much nutritional value anyway as a way to excuse it/make my refusal to eat it less bad.
Running and bicycling would also be nice to actually like.
My apartment would look so much nicer if I actually liked any part of cleaning, also.
Contacting people first to make plans. I'm always worried about bothering them or getting rejected. Or I'm just so zoned out with my own stuff that I don't think of it and then I feel really rude.
Owning a house - I really have no interest in decorating, cleaning multiple rooms, home repairs, lawn and yard maintenance, etc. MH does most of these things himself. I always tell him that if I lived alone it'd be in an apartment or a condo complex where there are staff members to take care of things like that. I just want a parking spot and easy access to laundry.
Gardening. I like it sometimes, but the problem is that once you have a garden in you can't just work in it whenever you feel like it; you have to keep watering it and everything else even when you're busy or it's 100 degrees outside.
