This is not meant to be any sort of religious "my lang > your lang" discussion, or anything along those lines.
I've no big complaints about the langauge itself, or it's syntax so far. I picked C++ over C, because I'm used to working object oriented. That too has it's religious defenders and contractors - and I can definitely see it's downsides. But in the end it's a tool, and you prefer the tools you're good with, right?
All that pointer-stuff is definitely a bit difficult to get into at first, though.

Choosing plain and simple C over c++ is not an equivalent choice than the other way around.
There are consequences.
Do you understand how insanely more complex a c++ compiler is compared to a plain and simple C one? If you cannot understand why this is an issue, I cannot do much more.

A less worse compromise: plain and simple C.
