I have had decks for ages and only connected with some of them years later. My Linestrider I bought because it was trendy, and I hated it...and just this week I have fallen passionately in love with it.
My Art Nouveau tarot I hung onto because I liked the pictures, though I couldn't read it at all. Spent a month or so in intensive study with it, and now it's one of my favorites.
I had my Nature's Whispers Oracle for Goddess-only-knows how long, I don't even remember buying it...and now I use it to draw an affirmation card for nearly every reading I do.
I know it can be frustrating. Decks (for most of us) aren't exactly cheap, and some are downright pricey. But I also know that I am SO glad that I kept these decks.
Honestly, I had posted a sale thread for a couple of mine and after reading this thread, I think I'm gonna have it closed...because writing all this has reminded me how much I love my Linestrider and my Art Nouveau and my Nature's Whispers, and who knows, maybe I'll grow to like my FS decks too.
