Worldbuilding. I love imagining weird worlds and figuring out how stuff works in them. I have no idea how to share my worlds with others in a way that would be interesting to anyone, so the only person who knows about my projects is my girlfriend.

Gaming. I don't understand the appeal of competitive games, like at all. Even when I was fighting with other players in Dark Souls 2, I was more concerned with having fun than winning. I disabled achievements in Steam and tend to seek ways to remove achievements from other games if at all possible.

Reading. I know people read like hundreds of books per year. I start less than a dozen books a year. Maybe I'll finish one or two lol. I don't care. As far as I'm concerned, reading Wikipedia and other articles on the internet also counts as reading. And if a book keeps my attention all the way to the end, great!

Collaborative games and a desire to share your worldbuilding... sounds like you might enjoy DMing a TTRPG.
