Well, I certainly am. I'm from a pretty staunch unionist background and have always been a unionist. Alas! Having lived in England and seeing just how far removed the Northern Irish idea of being British is from reality, along with the sheer apathy of the English towards basically everything (not just recently in RHI / border / not having an actual government, but historically) to do with us, I've been drifting in support of a United Ireland. At this point I don't think it's quite practical or anything, but Brexit will destroy us so I don't see the point in using practicality as a guideline anymore.
Which is the kind of ridiculous statement which shows just how wacky politics has gotten!
