Well we still don not know how many hours you have and how much you fly.
In the past few months I've done more flying than in the last 7 years put together (I started 7 years ago).
Comfort is a matter of how much you have done it and how much you are doing it. As stated it took me a couple of years to get comfortable.
Liking it and loving it are in the little things, not the 7 hour flight but the last two minutes. Or the couple of minutes you climbed through cloud into the sunshine, or the the time you managed to correctly anticicpate 5 ATC calls in a row. Don't expect flying to be all bliss from beginning to end.
Some peopel are never satisfied because their self imposed threshold for "happiness" is too high.
FYI I am scared of heights,do not like to clean out the gutter and I am slightly claustrophobic, I like wide open spaces.
Don't tell the AME though.......
