To be Neutral is to be able to do not only good things, bad things, but to also abstain from both. Neutral is 'boring' because it doesn't lock your character into an alignment. You aren't forced to help people, you aren't forced to harm people, your character does what would make sense for your character to do, even if it means doing nothing.

Good aligned characters aren't "forced" to help people if they have a reason not to. Nor are they "forbidden" from stealing. A single act does not determine an alignment and alignment isn't a cage restricting player autonomy.
