So, before i started playing the guitar, all i did was to sit in front of the computer/xbox. So i guess that all my life I've been called a nerd and the only thing i was good at was just at games.

But then i started to play the guitar. First on and off, but later much more serious and i just love the feeling of making progress. smile.gif

But now, i never want to play guitar. Until i really pick it up, then i can't stop playing it.

And today i just realized that this was the case when i played football to, I never wanted to go to football practice, but once i was there i kinda liked it.

Later i realized that i didn't like football and the only reason i were playing it was because my parents wanted me to do some sport.

And well, now that I feel this feeling again, I start to believe that the reason I play guitar now is that other peoples no longer see me as a nerd, but more of a guitar player.

I love to play the guitar, but i never feel like doing it until i really hold the guitar in my hands.

So I want to know, what is really the right reason to play guitar? Is it a very bad reason to play it just because it makes me someone else?

Btw i put quite alot of time on playing guitar if it makes any different.

Sounds to me like you're using guitar to create a fake persona about yourself. Liking video games is fine, I love Halo, but you have to play sports. Personally, I hate the feeling you get when you haven't done anything all day.
