It's like an abusive relationship that you can never break free of. ;-)
Me -- I call it quits on C++, clean break, no phone calls, no texts, no
further contact, no shared assets. Been livin' happily ever after since.
:-P

Well, OK, not entirely no further contact, sometimes work obliges me to
work with C++ again. But only on the rare occasion. I mostly work only
with C these days, and for that I'm happy -- in spite of C's fundamental
flaws, it's still a smaller, cleaner language than the mess that C++ is.
