I do, and I'm not a masochist.

I do, and I'm not a masochist. I use it to write small games on my own time. I used to loathe C++, but the C++11/14 dialect makes things much more pleasant. There's still a lot of details you need to worry about, but crucially these are details that other languages rarely give you a choice about. The only real alternative was C, but I'm tired of reinventing wheels and C++ has the STL. C also doesn't have the same support for value types which C++ does, and value types are really nice to use.
