I really have the passion for wanting to make a game, I have the ideas.

But I just can't seem to put them into a script to make it work, as in I just can't seem to figure out how to do it exactly.

It literally just comes to the point where entering edit mode just makes me frustrated and give up after 5 minutes of trying to figure out the basics of scripting.

I do suppose I have a different way of learning things, as the books, tutorial pages and videos just seemed to make me all the more irritated.

Why am I unable to learn this?

People usually call me an "absent minded professor".

Is there a method of learning to script for someone like me?

steve jobs wasn't a coder
he was pretty successful tho
if you have the ideas and the passion, make it work, you don't always have to do it alone.

It would feel awkward to ask people to help make a game, since I would be pretty useless in the sense of they will end up doing all the scripting, and I want no part in a team where I don't chip in equal effort.

Besides, I know scripting cannot be learned overnight, but I've been trying to do it for about two years now and I still can't do any scripting beyond changing the color of the baseplate.

Sorry to sound negative, but I personally believe I am a totally hopeless case, and as I said previously that the online tutorials don't really help and just seem to make me angrier.

What I did was just use free model scripts when I first joined roblox, and I slowly learned the read the basics, such as parents and functions. Then I would put 2 scripts together for any example if a script has a function when you hit and another script makes a part move I would put those 2 together, eventually I got to the point where I made my own completely from scratch and started using the forums for some tips/advice and help.
