Is it over if this stuff one of my special interests?

[Deleted member 32486]

I've been interested in facial aesthetics for the past 2 or 3 years, and some autistically specific parts of electrical engineering and autistically specific parts of music theory for the past 5. My interests do not really extend outside of those besides fleeting wikipedia wormholes and just the activities I do outside of hobby, like hiking, biking, and exploring abandoned places. Will this be my downfall? For the past 2 or 3 years I've analyzed about every face I see and thought about it through a semi-PSL framework along with my own personal preference.

No. Unless you want to be a normie, special interests sets you apart

Can relate. Only over if you want to meet people irl

It has definitely made me less productive with my electrical engineering projects, but material output isn't necessarily necessary to be "productive", I suppose.
