Yes, we did. Why would it need to be scary? Why would it need to be dire chaos? Why is it that parting with the EU can't be better than what we had within, albeit different

Because we're leaving the world's largest single market. We're counting on a vague frictionless trade deal to compensate.
What happened before we joined is rather immaterial as we don't live in a 1950s world anymore and irrespective of what people 'felt' back then post-War Britain was not a thriving, economically successful, place anyway and pre-War we had an Empire.

They're the ones who're reusing to negotiate at every turn and whatever people think about the ineptitude or otherwise of the UK's approach to this. It's perfectly obvious to anyone who isn't in denial that the EU's own dogma is the reason for any lack of progress.

And we were told by Brexiters they would be desperate for a deal. Now we're told we shouldn't want one anyway. Project Fear were warning that striking a deal with the EU, who have a vested interest in making it difficult. The only advantage we have is the recovery of the Eurozone makes them less cornered but at the same time might leave them feeling more confident.
