Am I alone in saying; for some damn reason, I don't like Ruby.. I appreciate what it can do, and indeed what it does.. I just feel like I slipped in between that moment to appreciate it more. I will go and spend some time to learn it more but out of a novelty aspect.. And that makes me feel bad.

I find it more productive, intuitive, and painless than the major scripting languages (PHP, JS, Python...), but it's definitely a bit different and less popular (given Python and JS are insanely popular).
No you're not alone, it's (surprisingly, to me) one of the more controversial languages. I love it. Lot's of people don't. These things are subjective, we don't all have the exact same brains and life experiences, us humans appreciate different things and that's fine.
