Time to find your people in reading or language learning group or something

I feel this. I stopped gaming and mostly stopped watching TV in my 30s. It wasn't a choice, my interest just kind of waned. I'll still occasionally play games but I'm not as big into them or searching out fandoms or people to talk to. I slowly realized how much of my social circle was built around gaming and fandom and as soon as those dried up I was pretty alone. I've since joined some groups for my newer interests and am slowly building a new friend circle, but it's been tough.

Yeah, I definitely feel this. I still watch anime and play JRPGs, but it takes me quite a while to actually finish a show or game because I have other interests (think it took me a year and a half to go through Fire Emblem 3 Houses, and I still haven't actually beaten every single route). And with how quickly fandom culture moves on, especially in the seasonal anime/JRPG space, I ended up losing a lot of my friends. Combined with being into weird niche stuff and how hard it is to meet people in a non-online space, it makes it hard to make friends just in general, too.

Nthing this, I just don't have the interest anymore. I do keep up with gaming news because it's so embedded into me now but the news is always bad so I've started backing off that too. I bought a second hand nintendo switch during the pandemic to play Animal Crossing and that was my major gaming investment since I turned 30.

I didn't lose anyone because I lost contact with my friend group after I moved but that's all I can really say about it.

The 18-34 target audience is a real thing. Lots of people move on in their mid 30s.

I've had a similar experience, but it isn't that those things don't interest me anymore, just that hobbies where I learn/improve a skill are more rewarding and so usually win my time.

skill issue

Yeah, my interests are niche compared to what my friends are into. We talk about our lives and we have moments where we share interests, but we don't yap like we did when I was more into fandom culture.

It's nice to have more individual hobbies. I've enjoyed writing since I was a child so it's never been too out there for me to be someone who enjoys solo endeavors.
