My family just don't understand me

And it angers me and is part of the reason I feel depressed.
I feel like an abnormal freak amongst them.
I am an artistic individual yet they expect me to have the normal work, buy a house, marry, have kids lifestyle.
I don't care for all that as much as I do for making music.
My tastes and views of the world are so different.
For example, my family are conservatives whereas I am left leaning with my views.
The music I like isn't the radio music, it is artistic, edgy, loud, hard.
My choice in fashion is different.
Everything is different about me compared to my family.

Thank you Pipsy.
Yeah I've had more acquaintances over the years than true friends that really care.
