It's after the fact that you look back and realize it was not a fulfilling happiness.

You see, I would not describe unfulfilled happiness as happiness.

Yeah but it is in the moment. You can't deny that you feel happiness at the time. It just doesn't result in lasting hapiness. That doesn't mean you were unhappy at the time. The resulting future does not change the past. You are simply letting it color your memory inaccurately if you truly believe you were not happy during times like that.
