Okay, so you've got a load of ideas from other comments, but what I'm asking you is:
What does anything of that have to do with you being in your mid thirties?
I'm sorry, but I didn't get the memo about age or gender related hobbies.
You don't need to be an 83y old hag to crotchet tea warmers, you don't need to be Tyler Durden to pick up boxing.
Just do whatever you fucking want to do, okay? You're okay. And if anyone tells you you're not okay, kindly tell them to fuck off.
Edit: Also, do not compare yourself to others. Ever. It's a hobby, not a career, you're not gonna get paid, so don't bother. Nobody says you need to be good at it.
Edit 2: Remind me again why Iām being downvoted for saying this, lol? š¤”
The age is more about the things that are likely to be available to me. But you are correct that my age shouldn't inhibit my interest in a hobby, even if it's typically associated with a younger or older demographic.
