Everybody makes decisions that might not work out in the end. If you ever need advice, come here. Don't worry about the people who will say 'I told you so'. There is a wealth of knowledge on this forum and lots of people want to help.

You act like you're 17, because you're 17. That's the way it goes. Take on the advice and store it away, and go forward with your marriage as happy as you can. It's not about proving anyone wrong. This is your life, you are the only one affected. Your opinion is the only one that counts.

Many congrats, I hope you have a long and happy life together. Don't focus on the next 10 years, just do one day at a time.
