As i'm sure many know England is somewhat obsessed with football and consider it our national sport. Unfortunately for me this sport manifested itself in occasionally awkward moments growing up as a boy for if you're English and male it is automatically assumed you like football. Now my family were never into football or sport in general besides motor-racing so naturally I didn't enjoy football. Despite this however I was still repeatedly asked by various people the same questions "Did you watch the match last night?" "What team do you support?" "Fancy watching the game?" which almost always ended with an awkward silence upon saying "I don't really like football". Eventually it got to the point where I would lie and just play along to avoid the awkwardness.
Any other people here suffer similar whilst growing up?
