i can last ages without drinking, and i never get dehydrated. tbh, im not sure i really know how being dehydrated feels
most people wouldnt, but trust me - it's really shit!
i know it'll probably sound weird coming out of the mouth of someone who appears to drink a tonne of water, but i have basically blacked out for a short period of time, a number of times, due to dehydration. and it's shit because you get these bad feelings that you have absolutely no control over - things like headaches, not being able to see properly (anyone who's had little opaque swirly lines in front of their eyes - its like that, but all over) and/or mini blackouts, overly hot or cold (especially if you've just had a shower), like you're going to puke, and probably some others that i can't think of right now.
i carry at least a 600ml bottle of water (often a 1.25L) with me pretty much everywhere i go, but that doesnt stop me from getting lazy and not filling up/drinking it often.

it's just water. it has no flavour or texture or anything that could be grounds for disliking it.
people who've been brought up on things like cordials or soft drinks would probably dislike water because it has absolutely no taste, and they're used to drinking sweeter things.
