Is violin for me? How to tell if you really love it? I feel very confused.

I've been playing the violin since 4th grade. I absolutely loved learning how to play it. But I lost my interest in playing but I still played because it was required at school. But I love listening to the orchestra and people like Lindsey Stirling, I think it's such a diverse and beautiful instrument. But sometimes I feel a connection and love it, but sometimes I end up hating it and feel happy to quit. But I feel like I can't quit for some reason... I'm not sure why. I love music so much though and spend so much time listening to it. I like Indie and Classical. My friend is really good at the violin and plays in an Indie folk band and it looks like so much fun. I have a connection with music, I'm just not sure why it's rocky with the violin. I'm not sure id I'd like orchestra or not either, I'm just confused as to what to do about it. Should I give it up? Try something new? Try to learn a new instrument? I'm not sure, thank you for reading!
