Of course that it is a myth that an antenna can be end-fed,
but that fact does not prevent your antenna to work in some
other way and serve your needs so well. Your antenna is as
much center-fed as any "ordinary" dipole. One leg of your
antenna is what you perceive as an antenna, and the transmission
line itself, operating in the common mode, provides the other leg.
That's how it works.
