Queue times so long i just play something else and forget league

i used to play league so i can do a quick Ranked match from time to time. but now the Queue times are so long i tend to start doing something else while i wait. and by the time i actually do get a match i just decline it because i become more invested into the other thing i started doing. it's making me drift further and further from playing the game i spent so much time playing and it actually makes me pretty sad.
