Hmm, different perceptions. I just don't recall too many scenes were Eleven mentioned how much he actually liked humanity.
I think about the episodes of S5 and the scenes that immediately come to mind are: *Eleven only getting really angry with Prisoner Zero when Amy specifically was targeted (he seemed a bit ticked previously, but didn't seem to be going all-out to save the Earth), *Eleven only really seeming to do anything much after Amy was kidnapped by Smilers (before that he only looked at glasses of water - if he'd figured it out before, why take so long to actually do something?) *Eleven only stops whinging about River and does something once Amy is trapped in with the Angel. He also only gets angry when Amy has fallen victim to the Angels. *Eleven did little to stop the Vampires until Amy was at risk of being their victim. *Eleven did not seem that worried about Elliott and Tony. It was only when the Silurians took Amy that he leapt into action. He even puts Amy first in the list of those who need to be rescued. *Eleven pretends that Amy is the least important person in a dying Universe to get Rory to react. He then talks almost exclusively about and to her for the rest of the time.
I suppose the alternate idea is that Amy must be put in danger in almost every single episode and it just happens to be that the Doctor realises what's happening at the same time. I'm afraid I'm not convinced though. I'd love to think that Moff that things planned out to that detail, but I'm afraid I don't. I can't believe he's put that much thought into it. His thoughts are clearly about how clever he can show himself to be.
