I had similar issues.  I was happy in Gnome 2 land when rumours of 
'Gnome-shell' begsm to surface.  Eventually it was available to test 
etc...so I did.
Shortly thereafter I switched to KDE 4 (which funnily enough I'd 
switched from KDE 3.5 to gnome 2 as I found KDE 4 to be a buggy mess)
Fast forward a few years and frustrated with some KDE issues I thought 
I'd give Gnome 3 a try...and after a week or 2 I found myself liking 
it.  I now use it as my main desktop.
As for Unity, I gave it a trial for 2 weeks on 11.10 and just didn't 
like it, so I'll stick with Gnome 3.  Just personal preference, and 
that's what I like about Linux..not held to one desktop.
It could be worse, look at Metro...
