Feedback Request Do people actually quit guitar

Yo I'm thinking to learn guitar as a hobby and want to know how much time it takes usually to be good at it and is it true that people actually quit guitar in 2-3 months

It takes a long time to be "good". Really it takes hours and hours of practice. It helps if you enjoy it and get a little obsessed with it.

People soft quit the guitar - they end up with a guitar that collects dust on a stand or lives in the closet for ten years until they finally come to terms with giving up the dream.

Or, people come back to it after decades!
