I think your interests are pretty damn awesome and totally normal!!
I loooove video games. I'm a 30 year old female. I don't get to play them all that often because I'm usually too busy, but I enjoy spending my Christmas holidays bingeing on them and having my own little marathons! I have a tattoo of Navi (fairy from Zelda) on the front of my shoulder... which I got last year, when I was 29. I determine "cool" people by who recognizes her
And board games rock. As does enjoying dressing nicely!
Here are some of my interests:
- video games!
- reading (I am a big YA fantasy fan... and loads of others! But I'm always in the youth section of bookstores)
- I still enjoy watching cartoons/anime
- writing
- travelling
- canoeing/hiking
- drinking at the pub
- board games with friends
- interior design
- collectiong antique cameras and coins
- photography
- online comics
I've got quite a selection, and I'm sure I've left loads out!
Our interests are allllways ok. Always. I'm sorry that people have made you feel ashamed of what you like! If you want to boost your confidence, join online communities with people who have similar interests to you!
Also, my grandma, when I was a little little kid... was also obsessed with Nintendo! She could play the original Zelda game in one sitting without dying... she had it memorized and drew her own map that she put on her bedroom wall. My cousins and their friends used to call her for help.
