Currently, the majority of Flemings do not support a reunification with the Netherlands. The old generation (my grandparents etc) usually don't support it because they're still devout catholics and would hate to be one with a protestant nation.
The newer generation, well. Let's just say the Belgian propaganda has been doing its work for 180 years now. If I look at most of my friends, they dislike our Dutch brothers to the same extent as they dislike the French-speaking Belgians. They constantly focus on our differences, and refuse to see our commonalities.
Personally, I would love to be reunited with the Northern Netherlands, on the condition that we are treated as equals, and not as subservients or as run-away sons or similar terms I've seen used on Dutch forums, usually meant derogatory and/or paternalistic.
If a reunification turns out impossible, I'd still prefer that we work very closely together.
edit to add: There is also only ONE far-right organisation I can think of on top of my head which openly pleads for reunification at all costs, and that's Voorpost.
