Is it normal to hate television, movies, and fictional books?
I am a woman in my twenties and was wondering if its normal to dislike all television shows, movies and fictional books. I have nothing against people who like the above things, but no matter how hard I try I cant get interested in any of these. There is literally no tv show or movie that I have EVER been interested in. Same with fictional books. When I try to watch/read them I get so bored that I give up. I do not have a problem with attention span because I can spend 6+ hours practicing music, or reading non fiction books about certain topics. This problem makes it nearly impossible to carry a conversation with any person since I never have anything to contribute and everyone seems to talk about movies, tv etc.. I feel that I am only interested in things that are "real" and have no interest in stories, plots, characters etc...I like non fiction books because I feel that I can learn a skill or applicable knowledge. The topics I like are jazz, prog, and music theory, as well as electronics (especially relating to music). Is anyone else like this? I cant seem to broaden my interests and it has a negative impact on my social life.
