DearInsanity manifested,
The problem was not Aikido, the problem isi n you.Any doubts etc were in your mind.In my opinion your decision to quit aikido is fine.I think you should have quit earlier.No teacher wants or needs a student who clearly feels that aikido is not for them.
Another point , how do you know that the new martial art is going to satisfy you? You might well have the same view about the new art months down the line.Why not simply spend more time with the family?Maybe that would be the right course of action?Certainly its a worthwhile , meaningful and rewarding experience.
All the best , Joe.
