olives are brined in a salt solution and spices, olive oil is raw olives that are crushed. You probably don’t like the sharpness or the vinegar taste of olives, but (good) olive oil has a smooth, rich and somewhat creamy taste to it – very different to eating olives.
Because they’re two entirely different things because of how they’re processed. A full olive brings different tastes and textures that olive oil doesn’t. Same thing for something like orange juice vs oranges. I love oranges and can eat them all day, but I can’t stand orange juice.

probably a texture thing my wife is like that with a lot of food
Texture?
Same reason I love mango juice but can’t bring myself to eat a mango.
Because olive oil doesn’t taste like olives that have been salt and vinegar
Different tastes. There’s just a slight resemblance.
Have you tried more than just the gross little black ones?
Because olives and olive oil taste nothing alike? The same as not liking lime but liking a lime flavoured milkshake.
Love eating pussy don’t like eating people.
Same
Because they don’t taste anything alike?
Olives for eating are cured in salt, either in a brine solution or dry-cured in salt then stored in oil. Olives used for oil are not cured.
simply because it doesn’t taste the same
I’ve never thought olive oil tasted like an olive 🧐

Deeply offended the server in Spain when my family declined the plate of olives brought out before our meal.

Because they’re entirely different things in EVERY possible way?
Olives don’t taste like olive oil. It’s not that complicated.
