If you don't enjoy Shakespeare, you don't enjoy Shakespeare, and that's fine. There are a lot of works of "classic literature" that do absolutely nothing for me, and I was an English major. You're not going to click with everything, and that doesn't make you a bad person.

If you decide that you want to try reading and understanding Shakespeare, though, here's my recommendation for the most effective way to do it: First, find a copy of the work(s) you want to read that has really good footnotes. Then, set it aside and go read the Canterbury Tales -- a lot of people have trouble with the Elizabethan Modern English in which Shakespeare is written, and if you learn to tackle the Middle English of Chaucer, reading Shakespeare becomes almost as easy as picking up a novel off the New Release shelves at B&N. Once you do that, come back to your Shakespeare book and read it out loud. Shakespeare was written to be heard, not absorbed visually.

Bear in mind, you don't have to do any of the above. You can just be a person who doesn't enjoy Shakespeare, and that's perfectly okay. But if you feel like it, try the method I've suggested; it will almost certainly render the text much more understandable, whether or not you enjoy it more.
