question

in one answer. acc to bais shamai the young lady has to reconfirm her miun when she gets older becuase we are worried she might have changed her mind. i wonder, and if she did - so what? would she be remarried? would she need another act of kidushin? i would think she isn't married just because she changed her mind, so what's the issue?

It seems that the mi'un is really only chal one moment before gadlus. the mi'un she does before she reaches a gedola is in essence revealing whether or not she wants this marriage, so that right before she becomes a gedola the mi'un will be chal. therefore, if she changes her mind before gadlus, she reverts back to the state of kiddushin d'rabonon.

so if she had 2 marriages, can she decide a moment before gadlus to go back to the 1st guy?
but i do hear what your saying,
