I don't really understand why everyone gets so excited when being acquired by some big company, my startup is my baby, if I sold it I would felt like if I had screwed up everything

True. Though being acquired is essentially someone investing in your company by purchasing a majority stake. This investment could soar your company or product to greater heights than you could ever accomplish behind the helm.
