      You’d be surprised how interested people are. I wouldn’t have pegged you as a boxer for instance, and it poses a pleasant archetype puzzle to resolve.

      Literally every person I have told about boxing has the same reaction: "What, you?? really?" I would be insulated, except that my own reaction was the same.

      Turns out that I'm someone who enjoys fighting, even though I had always aspired to be the opposite.
