I am a former C++ programmer who has moved on to the other languages/technologies and no longer suffer from Stockholm Syndrome.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. There are many dark corners, historic baggage, and complex interplay of language features in C++. This complexity breeds bad codebases plagued by subtle bugs created by misunderstanding of finer points of the language.
If these things scare you, run away in the other direction as fast as possible.
