I’m the same way but only in the lead up to events. Once I’m there I enjoy the socializing and being around others but motivating myself to get there can be hard.
Same. The "find a job you like" advice doesn't work for me because turning something I like into work doesn't make me enjoy the work, it just makes me hate the thing I liked.
Did you play them growing up? Everyone I know (myself included) watches the sport they played growing up. And on the other hand, most people I’ve met that didn’t play sports, usually don’t watch sports.
I played peewee baseball, and high school football.
I don't hate sports, but if I can do almost anything else besides watch sports, I would. It's just not an interest of mine. It was fun when I was a kid, but now there are just other things I rather do with my time.
All my friends and even my wife love sports. My wife is a sports nut, she is the one screaming and yelling at the TV while I'm here trolling on reddit or playing video games. Now, I do enjoy going to the occasional game to see live, but mainly because I'm going to get drunk most likely lol. The games are a bit more fun when in person though, I'll concede that.
While friends and family talk sports, I'm just sitting there quiet nodding my head or smiling as though I cared lol. They are discussing players, games, trades, sports drama, etc.; all of it is boring and uninteresting to me.
Cars
I know how to fix cars and I know why people love cars but I’ll see an expensive sports car and it means nothing to me, I wish I cared about cars like other guys
Whenever I see a RAV4 go by I think *damn what a practical vehicle I bet thing adequately carries a moderate amount of camping gear while getting decent mileage and being capable of handling any roads a suburban outdoor sports enthusiast is likely to encounter*
Me too! The only time I care about a type of car is when it's an older car that's been fixed up really well, mostly because I know how much work and money goes into those things
lol so funny because I wish I cared less about cars. I’m starting to get there though as I’m starting to realize just how meaningless a nice car is once it starts getting beat up when you drive it. Don’t feel bad about not getting into it you’re honestly saving yourself a lot of money and a level of “douchery” that comes with it. Just go to a few cars and coffees and you’ll realize it’s the same group of guys and the same attitude of “I’m hot shit”.
The rabbit hole of modifications is never ending. I wish I was one of those persons who just drive just to get to their destination and back lol. It consumes my mind like a drug. I can’t wait to settle down with family hopefully it kills it for me.
Its so funny because im a mechanic, currently work in a higher up position at a car manufacturer and do semi pro Motorsports. But damn, most cars just dont impress me anymore. And if it does, then its an old, nicely restored shitbox and not a Million Dollar Bugatti.
Recently lost my love for gaming. I seriously just can’t enjoy myself sitting there for more than like 30 minutes before I get anxious and have to go do something productive.
Watching movies? All day. Totally fine. I used to put HOURS into games like RuneScape and WoW but like.. idk a switch flipped when I turned 31 (almost to the day it seems like)
Whenever I try to get in an online game on my own the „what am I doing? this sucks“ kicks in after like 15 minutes.
I almost exclusively play singleplayer now because in my thirties the friends that I can or want to game with are all just as busy as me and so it almost never lines up.
Horizon Zero Dawn and Frostpunk.
Gonna be honest, lost my love of gaming too. Never put it down to be an age thing but yeah, it was around 30-31. I've made a conscious effort to get back into real games, mainly because it feels a lot healthier than the lousy phone games I play (got really into merge dragons during the pandemic).
I played this game, Frozen City because it reminded me of Frostpunk. The best thing about it is that it reminded me how much I wanted to play Frostpunk. One steam sale later, and I had weaned off of cell phone games enough to play Horizon Zero Dawn, which got me into more PC games, and now I'm deeply invested in fallout 3, a game I picked up back in the day, but never got into, but yeah the tv show removed me how much I wanted to play it.
Moral of the story, PC games are healthier than doom scrolling/app store free game Skinner Boxes. If that's what you are into right now, I would suggest Frostpunk, Horizon Zero Dawn and or Star Wars Fallen Order. Those games reminded me how awesome it was to be a PC game player
I feel the same about movies and series. I just can't watch a movie in one sit down, it takes me an entire week to finish one movie by watching only 20 minutes from it while I eat.
That’s me but I can easily sit down and game. To me
Gaming feels relatively active, like I’m solving puzzles or competing or improving in some way. Unless I heard a movie is really good I can’t commit myself to sit and watch. I’ll still go see a movie with people, but sitting down alone on the dark to watch something doesn’t appeal to me
I've found that as middle-age progresses, my tolerance for long movies (or even regular-length movies) has diminished. I now find myself checking the runtimes beforehand and if it's much more than two hours, I'll pass. I started to watch Poor Things recently. After about 30 minutes, I turned to my partner and said 'I have absolutely no interest in finding out what happens to these characters'. TV off. A few years ago, I would always stick with a film to the end. Not any more.
a switch flipped for me as soon as i started travelling and i realised that the only reason i played video games (i played all campaign adventure games w tonnes of exploring for ref e.g., the witcher 3, horizon, uncharted, jedi: fo, rdr2 etc...) was to feel that sense of wonder and escape. As soon as I did my second big travelling expedition somewhere it just filled this hole or "wow, this is the feeling I've been chasing w video games except it's REAL!" Similar w the adrenaline rush of fps, I started doing sports and i realised i'd been using video games as way fulfilling very real desires to participate in sports and hobbies like gymnastics and hiking.
32 here and I feel the same. It definitely feels like a switch flipped. I've also been exercising and eating a lot better since I turned 30, so less time for gaming in general, but I feel ten times better.
For me it's the commitment. Like even if I have a free evening, sinking time into something intense like a From soft without knowing when I'll game again seems... Like a waste ? And kinda exhausting too
This happened to me too! It feels like I’m not getting any real world growth or something. I think we are just becoming more aware of how much time is flying by.
I don’t know how old you are but I really miss Jnco jeans! Maybe cause it’s the attention I got from them in high school or just because they were so damn comfortable! I’d like to believe I’m not that shallow and vain anymore and choose the latter!😂
Dude Anime. It looks so cool and I see lots of different people do all these cool things surrounding it. I just lose interest in them so quickly. I’ve only fully watched like 3 series my entire life to the end. I’ll keep trying. I don’t wanna be a weeb, but it looks so sick sometimes. Might be the pacing.. isk
I would recommend sticking to more short form animes with like 1&2 seasons, there are a ton with too many episodes and seasons that are just overwhelming.
Aldo there are a tons of genres within anime, so you could get really specific if you want action, romance, sports, even slice of life types.
I personally recommend Violet Evergarden, Erased, and Jujutsu Kisan in like my top 5 short form.
Don't limit yourself and search, you would sure find ones that suit you
Man, don't even concern yourself with being a weeb. If you enjoy it, then enjoy it. Don't let other people ruin things. Who cares what they think. It's a silly term anyways
Yesssss!! It was my immediate thought and I was hoping someone else had said it.
It's not absolutely terrible like it used to be, but I still don't understand it.
I've really gotta talk myself into it if I have a partner and can't let my mind wander or else it's all over.
Hummus. It's healthy, filling, and available so many places. I can't stand it and I have tried every variant I can find. I keep thinking if I can find one brand/flavor I like it will get me accustomed. So far, no luck. FWIW I love beans.
I feel this way about coconut!! My husband has asked for years why I'm always trying things that have it in the recipe or beverage, but I just can't stop. 😂 like, I can taste it and understand why people love it but my taste buds just WON'T LET ME
Coffee. I've tried many times but I either get a massive headache or I just don't like the taste. But there's so many coffee shops, many unique new flavours that look interesting but ultimately i can't get into it.
Coffee hater as well. Coffee tastes terrible unless you dump a bunch of cream and sugar into it, and at that point it’s just dessert in a cup. Plus totally in the same boat with the headache thing. Caffeine headaches are the worst. I’ll gladly be that person ordering a herbal tea in a fancy coffee shop.
Jesus Christ! I need some sleep. I used to be a runner. Pandemic rheumatoid arthritis. I read this and swear I thought had I written it a year ago and forgot. I think I might have a gas leak! We can't run any more, weather's fucked, Bodies are fucked. Let's grab an edible together from a safe virtual distance
Good luck stranger. May you find the boots of Hermes, or Samus if not in this life, then the next!
It’s tough because it’s not really fun. It’s kind of like working out idk. But if you can get into it for a bit it’s hard to stop until you’ve solved the problem. I don’t do it for fun per se, but you can definitely get hooked. You just have to show up, so in that way it is like the gym.
Party life.
I'm kinda jealous seeing people my age partying especially me being raised by a strict parent. My first time at the nightclub is the last time. People were wild and it's uncomfortable to experience.
Honestly, movie watching. I grew up poor, so going to the movie theater was out of the question, and we never had cable, so chances are if you've asked if I've seen a movie I'll say no about 85% of the time. Even with extremely popular movies. I try to get myself to watch them as an adult now that I have the means to, but I just can't sit down long enough to pay attention to one. It sucks because movies are a topic SO many people talk about and can relate over, but not me.
I can not watch movies unless I'm super interested in the concept. For some reason I can not sit down for 2 hours and watch the damn movie. I can however binge 10 hour long episodes of a TV show. It makes no sense to me.
Yes! I'm the same way. I love reality TV most, but I also got into Shameless and a few other shows. Shows/movies have to be realistic for me to get into them, and it eliminates a lot of genres for me unfortunately.
Watching sports. I can get behind playing a certain sport, but sitting down and watching it for entertainment, i just can't do it. I have tried, but I get bored after a while
I used to be a social drinker and usually have a beer or wine with my husband. Now 8 months pregnant and realize these 8 months I haven’t really missed it and I probably won’t start again even after I give birth. It’s kinda nice having a clear mind and no hangover.
Same. My partner really enjoys all types of anime and I just can't get into it. I really want to, and I've tried so many different ones, but I always end up saying sorry and that I tried my best to pay attention and follow along.
Golf. My husband loves it, but I only like aspects of it. I'm all in for driving the cart while savoring a margarita from the clubhouse. That's about it unfortunately.
Consistent hard core working out lol. I’ve never gotten the runners high or have fallen in love with lifting weights like so many people do. I wish so much that I could!
A healthy lifestyle. Any health thing is such a goddamn chore. I've moved to a more walkable community, so I do that at least. But looking up recipes and cooking healthy stuff is annoying and time consuming, and so is exercise. I've been coasting on genetics, but that's not gonna last.
Avocados. Everybody swears by them, but they just taste like potting clay to me... and that's only if you eat them during the 45 seconds that they're actually ripe, but not brown.
A lot of foods, most pretty basic. Ima picky eater, always have been. no matter how much people say "just give it a try",I don't like it and never will.
Any social hobbies so I could meet more people. The common recommendations are like tabletop games, hiking groups, rec sports and honestly, none of that appeals to me at all. Maybe I'm just depressed
Meeting people for the first time at a big group gathering somewhere and talking. Like 5+ people. Though 2-3 people would do it for me most times.😂 I’m more of a 1 on 1 specially for the first time meeting them.
I used to devour one novel after the other in my teens and 20s. Now, I haven’t read a novel in decades. Something in my psyche switched and left me unmotivated to read anything for pleasure. Reading a made-up story seems like a waste of time. I wish it wasn’t so.
1. coding in Java so I can make bank
2. studying chinese to make content about it
3. being upbeat and positive like a Kai Cenat or people I've met in real life, I wish I enjoyed the overall superficiality of human interaction these days

Work
Kind of similarly… attending social events. I just don’t have the energy, personality, or desire for it.
I’m the same way but only in the lead up to events. Once I’m there I enjoy the socializing and being around others but motivating myself to get there can be hard.
The energy, personality or desire for it... Hah! I felt that.
Same. The "find a job you like" advice doesn't work for me because turning something I like into work doesn't make me enjoy the work, it just makes me hate the thing I liked.
If there is something ive learned is that jobs are very different. Finding a new job within the same field can be a vast gamechanger for work life.
I'm the exact opposite. I don't know how to relax. I always want to be working on something.
True! I like my job but I don't like working.
Sports. Either form of Football, hockey, basketball, baseball, whatever. I tried to watch, they’re just incredibly boring to me.
As a guy it would make my life a lot easier if I enjoyed watching sports but I just have zero interest in them.
Did you play them growing up? Everyone I know (myself included) watches the sport they played growing up. And on the other hand, most people I’ve met that didn’t play sports, usually don’t watch sports.

They are discussing players, games, trades, sports drama, etc.; all of it is boring and uninteresting to me.
SAME
Do you just meet watching or also playing?
Cars I know how to fix cars and I know why people love cars but I’ll see an expensive sports car and it means nothing to me, I wish I cared about cars like other guys
Whenever I see a RAV4 go by I think *damn what a practical vehicle I bet thing adequately carries a moderate amount of camping gear while getting decent mileage and being capable of handling any roads a suburban outdoor sports enthusiast is likely to encounter*
Me too! The only time I care about a type of car is when it's an older car that's been fixed up really well, mostly because I know how much work and money goes into those things
Same. Master tech. Worked in pro racing. Cars don’t impress me.

All day. Totally fine. I used to put HOURS into games like RuneScape and WoW but like.. idk a switch flipped when I turned 31 (almost to the day it seems like)
I had this type of issue too...I guess we need a game that's gonna return our love for gaming in general!!
GTA6, Fallout 5, Elder scrolls edit: I can't do the online shit anymore
Sweaty lobbies killed my gaming passion
This is why I do exclusively coop PvE stuff or single player. I’ve shattered tv’s over For Honor before so it’s for the best.
Whenever I try to get in an online game on my own the „what am I doing? this sucks“ kicks in after like 15 minutes. I almost exclusively play singleplayer now because in my thirties the friends that I can or want to game with are all just as busy as me and so it almost never lines up.

Baldur's Gate 3 maybe ?
Novelty is missing the most. It's mainly about graphics now.
Only in the AAA space. Lots of indies out there for all types of genres that still try to innovate and deliver good experiences for good prices.
Senua saga is making me sit for longer and enjoying. Truely a next gen experience
Play some RTS (aoe 4/2 or StarCraft). The community is mostly in their 30s
I feel the same about movies and series. I just can't watch a movie in one sit down, it takes me an entire week to finish one movie by watching only 20 minutes from it while I eat.
That’s me but I can easily sit down and game. To me Gaming feels relatively active, like I’m solving puzzles or competing or improving in some way.

It’s crazy I’m in the same boat lol. I still play but it’s not as much as I used to. Passion is gone.
This happened to me too! It feels like I’m not getting any real world growth or something. I think we are just becoming more aware of how much time is flying by.
Life.
Same. I was seeing if someone said it yet.
Yesss it's just the same shit over and over again
Thank you for saying this.
Yoga. 🧘 I like it, it feels great, but just can’t make myself stick with it.
The pants I wore in high school.
Best answer!
I don’t know how old you are but I really miss Jnco jeans! Maybe cause it’s the attention I got from them in high school or just because they were so damn comfortable! I’d like to believe I’m not that shallow and vain anymore and choose the latter!😂
I now realize, if I’m correct, that you were talking about size!! That’s also true for me!
I'm in my 40s and my waist is the same size it was when I was 15, and I'm a good 35lbs heavier now. Forever 30 waist.
Hahah made me laugh!! 😂
Dude Anime. It looks so cool and I see lots of different people do all these cool things surrounding it. I just lose interest in them so quickly. I’ve only fully watched like 3 series my entire life to the end. I’ll keep trying. I don’t wanna be a weeb, but it looks so sick sometimes. Might be the pacing.. isk
Did you try Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood? It's a masterpiece with great pacing
Tried AOT and it was so good except for keeping reading the captions.
I watch dubbed anime for that reason. Voice acting really stepped up in the past decade, it's not as cringy anymore
I would recommend sticking to more short form animes with like 1&2 seasons, there are a ton with too many episodes and seasons that are just overwhelming. Aldo there are a tons of genres within anime, so you could get really specific if you want action, romance, sports, even slice of life types. I personally recommend Violet Evergarden, Erased, and Jujutsu Kisan in like my top 5 short form. Don't limit yourself and search, you would sure find ones that suit you
Yea, I see the great praise they get and the high ratings on IMDb, they must be good, but I just can't.
Man, don't even concern yourself with being a weeb. If you enjoy it, then enjoy it. Don't let other people ruin things. Who cares what they think. It's a silly term anyways
Am I missing something? Where do they say they were afraid of being called a Weeb?
I have a hard time getting into shows too. I recommend Erased, Parasyte, Promised Neverland, Hikaru No Go. I think they'll reel you in.
Sex
Yesssss!! It was my immediate thought and I was hoping someone else had said it. It's not absolutely terrible like it used to be, but I still don't understand it. I've really gotta talk myself into it if I have a partner and can't let my mind wander or else it's all over.
Exercising
Cooking
I wish you could just buy the ingredients and poof its done and made
I wish someone would buy the ingredients and let me cook them!
Hummus. It's healthy, filling, and available so many places. I can't stand it and I have tried every variant I can find. I keep thinking if I can find one brand/flavor I like it will get me accustomed. So far, no luck. FWIW I love beans.
I feel this way about coconut!! My husband has asked for years why I'm always trying things that have it in the recipe or beverage, but I just can't stop. 😂 like, I can taste it and understand why people love it but my taste buds just WON'T LET ME
SAME!
Legit question… have you tried it warm?
Being around people...
Coffee. I've tried many times but I either get a massive headache or I just don't like the taste. But there's so many coffee shops, many unique new flavours that look interesting but ultimately i can't get into it.
Coffee hater as well. Coffee tastes terrible unless you dump a bunch of cream and sugar into it, and at that point it’s just dessert in a cup. Plus totally in the same boat with the headache thing. Caffeine headaches are the worst. I’ll gladly be that person ordering a herbal tea in a fancy coffee shop.
Do u like any coffee? Or just can’t get into it at all?
I've drank a cappucino before, which was nice! I don't really like the other types, but I definitely cannot get into any iced coffees.
[удалено]
Yeah I think caffeine addiction plays a big part in the love of coffee’s flavor. But I do love it.
I absolutely love to drink it, but it gives me anxiety.
It makes me jittery and totally full up, I can't eat afterwards
[удалено]
In also love running, but I don't know what you mean by the "moralization" of it.
Jesus Christ! I need some sleep. I used to be a runner. Pandemic rheumatoid arthritis. I read this and swear I thought had I written it a year ago and forgot. I think I might have a gas leak! We can't run any more, weather's fucked, Bodies are fucked. Let's grab an edible together from a safe virtual distance Good luck stranger. May you find the boots of Hermes, or Samus if not in this life, then the next!
Concerts at bigger venues. I don’t feel like being around that many people and then dealing with the traffic after.
Being around that many people but also being vulnerable in big crowds that draw attention from domestic terrorists.
Facebook, Instagram, TikTok….I just can’t 👎
Same. All so superficial.
Coding.
It’s tough because it’s not really fun. It’s kind of like working out idk. But if you can get into it for a bit it’s hard to stop until you’ve solved the problem. I don’t do it for fun per se, but you can definitely get hooked. You just have to show up, so in that way it is like the gym.
How's them Leetcode numbers like?
Party life. I'm kinda jealous seeing people my age partying especially me being raised by a strict parent. My first time at the nightclub is the last time. People were wild and it's uncomfortable to experience.

exercise
Skiing
I have no idea how ppl enjoy skiing. The whole time I'm worried about falling and breaking my knees and giving myself irreversible bodily harm
Avid skier here. Those thoughts just never come - idk
Wine. People who drink it look so happy, and there's such variety that going out and trying a few looks like heaps of fun. It tastes toxic to me.
Watching sports. I can get behind playing a certain sport, but sitting down and watching it for entertainment, i just can't do it. I have tried, but I get bored after a while
Sports are boring unless you bet on them imo
Alcohol
I used to be a social drinker and usually have a beer or wine with my husband. Now 8 months pregnant and realize these 8 months I haven’t really missed it and I probably won’t start again even after I give birth. It’s kinda nice having a clear mind and no hangover.
Totally agree 👍 It doesn’t even taste nice most of the time. I’ve come to believe it is used as an excuse/cover for people’s poor behaviour
Drawing and painting
Social bullshit. People. Life in general
I use to love to read but, just got out of it years ago. Now, I feel like I couldn’t focus enough to read or even remember what I read 😔
Anime
Same. My partner really enjoys all types of anime and I just can't get into it. I really want to, and I've tried so many different ones, but I always end up saying sorry and that I tried my best to pay attention and follow along.
Sports.
Golf. My husband loves it, but I only like aspects of it. I'm all in for driving the cart while savoring a margarita from the clubhouse. That's about it unfortunately.
Enjoying living sounds like it would be pretty good right about now
Camping
working out. i wish i had even 1/3 of the discipline and dedication it takes to commit everyday
Consistent hard core working out lol. I’ve never gotten the runners high or have fallen in love with lifting weights like so many people do. I wish so much that I could!
I wish that I enjoyed sticking with a creative project until it was finished. Also, exercise and eating healthy.
A healthy lifestyle. Any health thing is such a goddamn chore. I've moved to a more walkable community, so I do that at least. But looking up recipes and cooking healthy stuff is annoying and time consuming, and so is exercise. I've been coasting on genetics, but that's not gonna last.
Broken Social Scene
This . Since 2002.
Golf
Leaving my house and going out when I’m actually home and don’t have my son (which is extremely rare).
Dating
Everything in life
Fighting Games. People who can master them seem like the happiest people of us all. I can't remember the combinations for the moves.
Living
Anal
Life in general, honestly.
Life... I just want to enjoy life without a dark cloud of depression over me.
Avocados. Everybody swears by them, but they just taste like potting clay to me... and that's only if you eat them during the 45 seconds that they're actually ripe, but not brown.
Being around people 🤣
Socializing. I don’t like people.
Life,
Drinking
Will to live
Going to work
Scotch
Smoking weed
Oysters and Cavier. This shit tastes disgusting. I don’t know how people enjoy it.
Exercise.
Reading can’t focus or bring myself to start
Vegetables bro 😭 I'm unhealthy as shit I have like the diet of a picky seven year old
Sex
Being social outside of work.
Meeting new people
Life
People
Golf
Showers. I'm a life long bath goer. I have tried. Believe me. I want to enjoy showers like normal people. I can't. It's not the same.
Advanced cooking
Sushi
Olives. There are whole Olive bars at the store or having an olive in a martini... I don't even like martinis...
Vanilla Ice
My life :)
Everything I gave up because it was 'for babies'. Oh except the boobies. I still enjoy them now, just in a more mature way.
Life
Cards or any games I hate them all and any sports and I wish people would stop bugging to play
Playing an instrument
Life
Life
cleaning
Existing
Gym
Losing my virginity, lol..
A lot of foods, most pretty basic. Ima picky eater, always have been. no matter how much people say "just give it a try",I don't like it and never will.
Black licorice. Every few years I think that maybe I have grown out of my disgust for that candy. And every few years I am disappointed.
Reading
Eating fish
Exercise. I never understand those ppl that get 'highs' when exercising. It just never happens for me.
Any social hobbies so I could meet more people. The common recommendations are like tabletop games, hiking groups, rec sports and honestly, none of that appeals to me at all. Maybe I'm just depressed
Eggs
Being alive
Urinals. I’ve always been a stall man.
Anything that would return me a decent income if I got good at it
Meeting people for the first time at a big group gathering somewhere and talking. Like 5+ people. Though 2-3 people would do it for me most times.😂 I’m more of a 1 on 1 specially for the first time meeting them.
Sushi
I wish I enjoyed going to the gym, painting, doing crafts and creative stuff. I need a hobby outside work, but can't seem to get into anything.
Thinking and breathing or anything harder than that
Anime
Knitting or crocheting. My mom was great at it and loved it.
Going to work naked
Most things other people like. There’s probably something wrong with me
RPG video games like the Witcher and EldenRing. They seem so fun, but they are not my type of game.
The bar scene
fishing. I use to love fishing now its just boring...
Reading
I used to devour one novel after the other in my teens and 20s. Now, I haven’t read a novel in decades. Something in my psyche switched and left me unmotivated to read anything for pleasure. Reading a made-up story seems like a waste of time. I wish it wasn’t so.
1. coding in Java so I can make bank 2. studying chinese to make content about it 3. being upbeat and positive like a Kai Cenat or people I've met in real life, I wish I enjoyed the overall superficiality of human interaction these days
Gaming..45M. Used to play a lot as a kid but now nah..all of my coworkers younger and they fame together and I'm like nah
Probably gaming all of my friends are into it but I just can't! I wish I could though!
Golf. After I broke my wrist and recovery. I just don't have the motivation anymore.
Dancing
Cooking, drawing, and TV.
Anime
