You Don’t Hate Coding — You Just Hate When It Doesn’t Obey You.

Let’s be honest — most developers don’t actually hate coding.
We just hate when our code has trust issues. 😅
You write one clean line and suddenly, the whole app crashes.
You fix one bug, and three new ones spawn like it’s a Marvel multiverse. 🕷️
Then you Google the error —
and Stack Overflow replies with:
“It depends.” 😭
But here’s the truth — if you’ve ever yelled at your laptop, felt like quitting, then came back five minutes later...
Congrats — you’re a real developer. 👏
Because coding isn’t just about logic.
It’s a relationship.
Some days you vibe.
Other days… you both need space. 😂
But the magic happens when you keep showing up.
Every bug you fix makes you smarter.
Every failure teaches you something new.
And every all-nighter turns into a story you’ll laugh about later.
You don’t hate coding.
You just hate the process of becoming great at it — and that’s okay.
Because deep down, we all love the feeling of seeing it finally work.
That moment when the app runs flawlessly…
and you whisper:
“I’m him.” 😎
💬 Be honest — what’s one moment that almost made you quit coding?
Let’s see who survived the wildest bugs 👇
