Oh sorry to hear that That's a very funny topic for me because most of my ideas I had them younger and I'm now 23 years old... And yep, most of them, the idea is the same but the execution changes

And yep, I tweak the details as I go along, as I'm growing. I think it's important you're still interested in your story... If you're not, it may not necessarily be because it isn't interesting.

You may be burnout (a possibility), need more creativity (have you let yourself imagine other stories, read, watch other movies, etc?) or, as you say, If you really don't like the story any more, you should change it smoothly as you go.

If you had a big outline or your whole story, then It will be even less daunting. I also change my stories. As Stephen King says, you're your first reader, you should like it ^^

I'm not saying to give up your story, but changing it drastically may be fun and more interesting. Doing it with care and making sure you still love it

Good luck!
