It's all a matter of personal preference, some people like GMC trucks and others like Ford and Dodge. Glock owners seem to "glorify" the firearm to the point of fanboy worship, and yes, they are polymer guns and some people do not like that.
I have shot them and used them in the past and I do not like the way they fit in my hand or their ergonomics, so to speak. A handgun should fit in your hand, feel comfortable and fell like a natural functioning part and an extension of your hand when you engage it. If after you have tried out and shot various different makes and calibers of handguns, and the Glock feels that way to you every time you shoot it, then by all means, get yourself a Glock.
People can recommend all makes of handguns to you, but what you ultimately choose, should be based on your personal, intimate and ultimate decision of what fits and feels just right for you.
Here is just one of many, many links on the Interwebz concerning Glock dislike. I think this guy does a very good job, and presents his own opinions of pros and cons very well of why he is not a fan, and he presents some interesting factual descrpencies.
Not a Glock fan
