Dancing. I was both horrible at it and or disaster happened when doing it* so I became 'too cool' to dance.
One New Year's I finally had a girlfriend I could be authentic with, we were at the city's 'First Night' party, so different activities all over town, and I told her 'I really want to go dance to the big band in the grand ballroom. But I am a horrible dancer and every woman I have danced with has made fun of me'. She was down, was patient, and it was one of the most fun nights of my life. After that we started taking salsa lessons. So just dance. And if the people you are with make fun of you, don't stop dancing, stop being with those people.
* Example: Junior prom, slow dancing with my date in her fancy dress with her $200 hairdo. The gum I was chewing (because I took her out to sushi, which she informed me was gross, and therefore would not kiss me until I got the taste out of my mouth) somehow attached to a hair of hers in my mouth. Before I could unstick it she flicked her hair, yanking the gum from my mouth and into the rest of her long hair. Fun times were not had by all.
