I was thinking about this earlier, and realised I have never worn a wedding dress despite being married twice.
Not only never worn one but never had the urge to even try one on ... it's just never interested me. I watch people on TV trying Bridal wear on and swooning over themselves in it.. and I'm thinking 'meh'.. it just means nothing to me.. they could be trying on fancy dress or a work uniform , it barely registers with me

So what have you never done that most of your peers have done... ?

Taking peers as a person who is equal to another in abilities, qualifications, age, background, and social status.

Everyone of the jet mechanics I served with in the Navy died. Those were my peers. After leaving the Navy we stayed in touch. They fit the definition.

If you want to broaden it to the rest of humanity that doesn't work if following the definition is used.

Never, ever, hopped on one leg and with one arm tied behind my back to the top of Everest, and frankly, all those mates who said they have, I think they are exaggerating. 😊

Me either, unless going to a business meeting there counts... Never plan to go. Took the grandkids once, but I never went in, just paid for it all.


Went to Disneyland once, when I was young, not going back.

Not to the US at all? That would surprise me.

I agree, me neither... again my DD has, she loves a cruise, but then she loves to lie on a sunbed all day reading a book, I could never do that... that said I have been thinking now as a lone person of perhaps taking a cruise it would solve all my problems about travelling alone..not sure about it ..

I've never been on a cruise either, and it doesn't sound at all appealing to me in my senior years, but if I were in my 20s again, I'd have a blast with the all you can eat buffets and all the alcohol you can drink accommodations! I would definitely have gotten my money's worth at that age! 🤣

On second thought, considering some of the stupid things I did when I was in my 20s, I might have fallen overboard if I went on a cruise back then. Or one of my friends would have; that's a given.
