you should go for what you really love doing.

U should try to quit all of yours private music lesson ! Obliviously u don't have the gift to do that !
Gert a life instead !
And if u don't seceded , then try to suicide !
Is good for mankind!

Your letting "I can't" get in the way. If you really like Piano then stick with it. If you enjoy violin better then you know the path you should take. But if you really have a passion for something stick with it bc in the long run whats the worse that could happen, but if you honestly put your mind to it you`ll have the piano down in a matter of weeks. The only thing that could hold you back is you.

no way! well unless you really want to but it will get easier believe me when i started playing i was not getting it! and now i've been playing for 8 yrs cuz i love it so much! also you'll b able to play 2 instruments! and mayb youll learn other instruments!

Wow, tough choice. Well, no one can decide what you want to do but you (obviously) so I have to agree in saying you should choose the instrument you love. However, just because you can't afford lessons for both instruments doesn't necessarily mean you should 'give up' one or the other. After all, when people talk to me about choices they regret making, the instances focused on are things they didn't do rather than things they did do. I know that I've always regretted not keeping up with various lessons- everything from piano to gymnastics to ballet. So, love, what I guess I'm trying to say- in my bumbling sort of way- is this: don't give up either, but the one you think you need more coaching in, stick with. You'll be grateful later on and- Bonus!- you'll be multi-talented.
