I wish Cole had more moments of vulnerability

We didn't learn much more about him or get super deep dives into what makes J Cole in The Fall Off. It is hard to do though, given his long career and all the material he's put out.

I feel like on Disc 39 he could have spoke more about being a father, or something

EDIT: I MEANT EMOTIONAL. Thats my bad

I don't mean that I shove my interest down other people's throats at every opportunity, but I've found that my friends are less willing to engage in discussions about a particular thing compared to me.

I'm 19, so my friends and people around me are mainly from school and university, and a few I've known for almost half my life. Whenever interests (mostly shared interests) are the topic of conversation, I found myself discussing topics with more enthusiasm, and that interest/care isn't reciprocated.

For example, me and friend/s could be discussing an anime/game we like, and I might bring up certain details or gush about how much I liked X scene or Y character or whatever, but they either brush past it, or don't bring similar levels of enthusiasm.

Or another example from just earlier today was discussing what songs me and a friend like from an album, but I went a lot more in depth and specific about what I like and it was pretty much ignored. Every conversation I'm in doesn't need to turn into some super in-depth discussion, and I also casually respond/discuss things, but sometimes I expect a bit more.

I don't expect everyone to be super passionate about every game or anime or whatever, but sometimes it does feel like I'm not always heard, even though I try my best to listen to them and respond to their interests and passion. And even then it feels like sometimes they don't care for my input.

Wondering if others share similar experiences.
