In fact, “I thought I wouldn’t want to do/experience X, but upon trying it out I realized I was wrong” doesn’t make sense.
I interpret the confusing language to mean, “I did not predict I would want to do X after doing X or learning more about X.” It doesn’t explicitly say that, but when I hear people say things similar it is usually some forecast about their future self, not their current self.
