Too old to learn an instrument

I try not to be as defeatist as you but yeah iktf. When I mention something about it, they say shit like 'you didn't show any interest!'. Like no shit, I was 7 years old. You have to guide or even force your kid into things if you want them to be successful, they don't just figure it out on their own.

Correct

We are brothers in arms. I hate to shift the blame all on my parents but I feel like part of the reason I am an unemployed 22 year old man with a useless degree that still lives at home is because i was coddled all my life and let my formative years be wasted on mindless entertainment.

Never did any clubs, never did any sports, literally just went to school and went back home to waste time until the next morning, a behavior I maintained even during college. I have zero passions, zero hobbies I can turn into careers and am stuck with the cruel reality that I'll probably end up working minimum wage retail jobs until I drop dead.

more like too much of a whiny faggot to do anything but shitpost

Our parents all had strict parents, so of course they rebelled and decided that hands-off parenting was the best solution, all because their parents didn't let them watch TV for 6 hours a night and made them join Scouts or baseball or something

>i just want to make art that people want to listen to.
You create things that YOU like. If you are creating anything for anybody but yourself then you are a fraud.

>not playing because you think your chances of being a famous rockstar went down
if that's why then good you shouldn't have ever started. otherwise, just play as a hobbyist it's fun and there's nothing wrong with that

So fucking true. I wish I had parents that kicked me out of the house when i turned 18, or forced me to pay for college by myself or even just made me earn the money to buy a new video game.

I honestly faced little to no challenges growing up, fuck, I didn't even learn to drive until I was halfway through college because my parents were fine with driving me wherever I had to go and didn't want to force me to get my license.

The second you realise your parents went wrong is the second that every subsequent action in your life is on you.

Imagine being in your sixties having spent the previous forty years blaming your parents for how you didn't do anything with your lives.

Yeah I think we're all in the stage of trying to unfuck our shit up right now. But when you look around at your peers, the differences between those with active and dismissive parents is obvious.

I'm basically just accepting that my birth wasn't this big planned thing with expectations for me and such. My parents fucked, spat me out and just went on with the flow of their lives.
