It is hard to admit defeat.
Teaching theatre killed my love of theatre. Not all theatre, just doing it. It was exhausting when I had a program kids wanted to be in, it's insufferable now. I'm supposed to save a program in a building that does not want it. Because the kids don't want it. Let's rephrase that: there are not kids In Bulk who want it. It's more important to keep class sizes high to justify the FTE than it is to admit that upper level theatre classes aren't going to be big because theatre is hard and not everybody wants to do it.
That's what killed my love. The overwhelming wave that is defined as a lack of love.
