I never would have guessed unless I’m a geek.
Let’s say you met a stranger only 3 hours ago

In my upcoming movie the main character said “Really? I never would have guessed when I met another stranger.

Both “I never would have guessed…” and “I never would have thought…” are simply “stock” phrases to express mild surprise, but the actual degree depends more on context and intonation.

I never thought of that is somewhat different. This suggests a lack of knowledge or proper reasoning, which may be surprising. Again, the meaning depends completely on context.
