Phrases like "Estoy feliz de.." continued
Hello everyone,
I asked a question regarding the structure of phrases like "Estoy feliz de.." when the subject is the same (myself), but I am still not exactly clear on the correct sentence structure in this case, so I am asking a new question to explain more precisely what I am confused about. I know that it is grammatically correct to use the infinitive if the subject is the same (like, "No creo poder hacerlo"), but what I am not clear on is phrases that start with "Estoy" like "Estoy feliz", "No estoy segura", etc. I believe that you would add "de" + the infinitive, right? So for example I could say, "No estoy feliz de haber hecho mal", and you would only use "que" or "de que" when the subject changes, right? And also, are "que" and "de que" interchangeable in this case?
Thanks!

(El/ella) está feliz de estar aquí.
