The entire point of my post was 6 months is too short of a time to make a determination of whether x was a good idea or not. Do many people marry within 6 months of proposing? Perhaps a good chunk were in the stressful period of planning and logistics I guess. And you're right, I don't know the counterfactual. Also, I don't know if I'm deluding myself or not. The thing is, I don't care because I'm happy now compared to back then.
