How long should I leave it before I accept that my last Airsoft game, was probably my last Airsoft game? 🤔

When I burn out, I go somewhere new on my own for a session. I'll either have a great time and it will re-ignite me or I'll see that what I already have nearby isn't actually as bad so will re-ignite to go back.
I used to very much identify as an "airsoft sniper" covid did me a solid and I got into Hi Capa builds and it's been an ongoing "ism" since.Sadly I too like you am one of the single figure % who play airsoft and aren't autistic though so game days with other airsofters are still challenging, that's why I pick who I go with carefully so I have a relaxed time - not neccessarily then "day to end all days" every time.

I only burnt out (and haven't happened since) when I played way too much and not leaving any gap between two games. Also, it's not really a good thing to rely on only one hobby. Not saying you do but lot of people fail to see that you need other activities which isn't related to airsoft at all.
Also, it's absolutely crucial to shop around regarding sites and switch it up a bit if you can. Like playing indoor for a while instead of outdoor all year long. I play indoor only but even I have to go around at least between 3-4 sites and I look for new ones all the time.
Changing guns and changing play style (like using a dmr or a pistol or shotgun instead of an AEG) can actually make a difference because you have to force yourself to adapt either because you have to keep distance or you don't have the luxury of "range". Basically anything to spice it up instead of being stale.
If you don't enjoy it anymore don't force it though. 💀
