What's something you've never done that a lot of people have?

I never learned to ride a bike because I can't balance well and my parents thought it was too dangerous. < True story I tell it at parties.

Most romantic/social stuff that you normally think people ought to have done by my age. I'm practically a hermit.

There's always time to learn to ride though if you want! I don't know the extent of your balance issues, but you can wear a helmet.

@DDonde I've tried several times but I always end up getting injured. I wore a helmet but that doesn't protect my arms and legs from getting messed up lol and after spending a majority of last year unable to walk I can't really afford to mess up my knees anymore than I already have.
I don't think it really matters if I learn or not though since it's not something that really was a mass impact on my life it's just that people tend to think it's odd.
As for you not having done most romantic/social stuff that's okay. Everyone's different and there is no real pace of what one should do by a certain age.
