Experiences vary from person to person. What may have been memorable and worth repeating for one may have been a regrettable moment for another. 

The stories you’re about to read are more about the latter. People candidly shared the first experiences they’d rather forget in response to this Reddit question that made the rounds recently: “What’s something you tried once and instantly knew that it wasn’t for you?”

Commenters talked about the first time they explored mind-altering substances, went camping, had roommates, and dated after divorce. Some anecdotes were funny, others were perplexing, while a few were slightly saddening. 

Nevertheless, these were interesting reads many of you will likely enjoy.

Never Again: 30 Times People Learned Of Their Hatred For A Certain Thing After Trying It Once Dating again after my divorce. I realized I actually really truly did want my own space, my own home, my own finances, my own freedom. I was fulfilled by the relationships I had in my life.
The first relationship after my marriage lasted 14 days. The whole time, I tried. But I couldn’t do it.
I’m very happy alone.

Gross porta potties, no water to wash hands, the smell of weed, the smell of p**s, people smelling of BO and alcohol, pushing each other out of the way to get to the front, people OD-ing, heat strokes, people with no awareness of their surroundings, minimal seating areas, no shade, drunk adults who bring their kids while they get wasted and over priced food lol.

Never Again: 30 Times People Learned Of Their Hatred For A Certain Thing After Trying It Once Church. I got dragged to some free BBQ and music thing by a friend. Turned out to be a church pushing the hip new youth rock band they had some decade or two back.

I tried to be respectful, really. I late some food, chatted with the other folks there. Then we were led into the basement for the "concert." Fine.

The issue came when they locked the doors. This felt wrong so I politely asked to be let out. They refused. I informed them they had no right to lock me in and demanded to be let out. They grabbed the pastor.

At this point I started to get pissed. I began to complain loudly and was suddenly surrounded by church-goers trying to tell me this was normal.

Soon afterwards I really started to lose my cool. I demanded they unlock the door and basically informed them this was utter b******t.

In the end a scene was made (I shoved preacherman) and I was escorted out by three people and i have never set foot in a church since, quite happily.


Edit: I added that I got salty shoved preacher after they resisted letting me go because it felt dishonest not to tell the whole story. Also I did make the case that the locked doors were a fire hazard to no avail.

Edit 2: seems thus was a cult. It was a large-ish Christian church in my hometown that was freshly built and seemed legit from the outside.

As well, I tried shrooms once while still in a very strict boarding school in Ireland. I was away for a weekend with a friend and we wanted to have some fun. Anyway while on it, I saw a picture of her with short hair and thought it looked amazing. So we cut mine right away. Yes, you are right. I didn't look amazing and the school was not very amused... And I had to walk around sporting my G.I. Jane look and hating it. Good memory though.

There's two different basic kinds of weed, Indica, and sativa. Indica is the stuff that makes you a goofy, giggling lump that can't stop eating, and has a stronger body high, anti-anxiety, sleep inducing. Sativa, is cerebral. It's more energizing, allows you to function fairly normally, helps creatively but can cause paranoia and panic attacks in those not accustomed to it. Most dispensaries rely on sativa/indica blends unless they're specifying a particular use case, I.E "pain, stress or insomnia relief is going to be 100% indica" But.....weed isn't just THC....it's THC and 80-100 cannabinoids, and another 300 chemicals, different concentrations of all those chemicals have wildly different effects, and they also effect different people in different ways, and the delivery method also matters. Smoking is the least impactful for the shortest duration (smoking 1 gram of 40% THC bud is going to be strong, but not overpowering and only last an hour or two)

I tried crack once. Not "one multiday binge" like enough to catch a buzz and realize that i did not like the effects. Same with smoking crystal, absolutely gross. Injectable coke on the other hand....that was great. Best way i can describe the feeling is like the effects of Nitrous. You get the anesthetic effect right away, and then you get the "waa-waa's" where it's like you can hear electricity pulsing in your ears. That rush, was very, very short lived, like only a few minutes and the comedown was brutal. Never, ever again for that one either.

I've been in one relationship my entire life and it was horrible. I hated everything about it. Everything that people seem to want and crave annoyed me and made me irritable.

Talking to someone everyday: gross.
The feeling of obligation to talk to that someone and respond to them: gross.
The sense of obligation to fill your free time with them: gross.
Dealing with their irrational emotional responses: gross.
Having to "check in" to see if going out or coming home late or whatever will be okay with them: gross.

All of it. It's just not for me.

If the green ones are red inside, they're premature and taste frightening. If they are ripe and well-prepared, there's hardly anything better. For those loving them too, try the following: Buy olives that were pickled in a seed oil, NOT IN SALTWATER. Often, there's a mediterranean dude in a trailer selling such stuff on my supermarket's parking lot - he's got the best olives around, those in the store are no competition. Not in olive oil, a seed oil is a must, often it's sunflower anyway, but if you can get them in a nut oil or so, even better. Hazelnut-oil pickled olives, ... incredibly good ... Take out the stone if it's not yet removed, and replace it with a half clove of garlic, fresh and NOT PICKLED. Do not buy olives "filled with garlic", they're a hideous attempt that only makes you crave the real stuff even more. Green, black, ... that's besides. Garlic-filled olives are all great.

A job where you can do your best but piece of 5h1t a55h0l35 complain about you and you actually get into trouble because your boss prefers to keep the customers happy. NOPE!!!!!!!!!!

In my younger days - H**oin, but not needles. Humans are not supposed to feel that good. It’s easy to see why it’s so addictive. It was a one and done thing, as I could easily see it could escalate quickly.

I tried it every which way, and was never a big fan. Does it feel amazing? Absolutely! Does it allow you to do anything besides sit there like a lump and bask in how amazing it feels? Nope! D***s were always utilitarian for me, i didn't take them just to be high and useless it was always in pursuit of accomplishing something, and i could see that the only way it would ever get to the point was by allowing it to become a Problem. Nope, nope, nope! Oxy on the other hand...that one sneaks up on ya.

Diving, as in deep sea. Hated the feeling being that far down in the sea.

Recreational dive limit is 130 feet. Most of the good stuff is much shallower. How far down were you?

Behavior therapist for children on the spectrum.

I don’t have infinite patience, and I couldn’t take getting sick every other week.

I gave it two years before tapping out. Wonderful people and rewarding… but it is a damn hard job at times.

That's fair. I was a child on the spectrum, and I know at times I could be....eh...challenging. I was lucky enough to have a wonderful & very patient therapist, though I know there were days she probably wanted to sit in the corner & cry.

I completely suck at bowling too but I don't care; I enjoy it. Losing miserably every time doesn't phase me.

It used to be fun in my younger days, and before covid. Covid has given me a lasting social anxiety 🫠 I already had social anxiety, but covid made it 10x worse. Now I like to chill at home with my cats. Better for the wallet, too

As a vegetarian, I say life without cheese and ice cream is a barren, joyless existence.

I dont have scientific research to back it up but my belief is that crabs are ocean spiders, lobster ocean scorpions, and shrimp ocean cockroaches I suppose. I used to love seafood but have bad arachniphobia and once my brain equated crabs with spiders it was over

That s**t scarred me for life. Coz I was the "third party" they (a guy and a girl) turned it into a competition between themselves. Would always get me drunk and then pounce on me. It's been years since but those two took advantage of me and it left me pretty messed up
