P& P #11: 3-6

“But that was only when I first knew her, for it is many months since I have considered her as one of the handsomest women of my acquaintance” (264).

There is no one in the world that can make Darcy feel the way that Elizabeth makes him feel. He has never fallen out of love with Elizabeth and Miss Bingley’s criticisms of her only make his affection for Elizabeth stronger. Miss Bingley attacks Elizabeth for all her imperfections out of jealousy. She tried to put herself above Elizabeth, so Darcy would think he made a mistake. This was the worst thing Caroline could do to make Darcy love her. Caroline’s discourteous nature showed Darcy exactly why he loves Elizabeth. Elizabeth is beautiful on the inside and out. Caroline lacks everything that makes Elizabeth beautiful. Elizabeth has always been pretty, but her genuine nature makes her stunning. Darcy’s ability to stand up to Caroline shows he will always defend and protect Elizabeth no matter what.
