No One Cares About Your Interests
But you should write about them anyways
I can’t tell you how many times I get excited about something, start telling a friend all about it, and see that ominous glaze over their eyes. Let's be honest, not everyone cares about all your interests. Not even your closest friends.
One example of where this happens to me constantly is whenever I am reading a really really good book. No one ever seems to enjoy listening to me blabber on and on about how good the story is. Now…this is partly because I always worry about spoiling the book so I don’t give enough detail to actually make it sound interesting. So maybe this one is actually all on me, but you still get the idea.
We all have our own interests, and we should never be ashamed of them. But if you don’t have a community that cares, or can’t seem to find one, then I suggest you write about your interests yourself! Even if you do have that community, write about it anyways! You never know who you will meet along the way.
