A Revelation about Elizabeth

Last night, my wife revealed to me that she thinks Mr. Darcy may like Elizabeth. Preposterous! How could an arrogant person like Mr. Darcy think himself worthy of a lovely person like Elizabeth? And how could he expect someone that once seriously considered marrying me then go on to reciprocate the feelings of someone like him? However, Darcy’s relation to Lady Catherine is definitely in his favor, and could really cause Elizabeth to marry him. I think Mr. Darcy should propose to Elizabeth immediately, before he misses his chance.

  1. I beg to differ, Mr. Collins! Mr. Darcy is not an arrogant man; he is in fact quite the opposite. He has earned his title and therefore may choose whom he pleases to marry, even if it is that wretched little girl. Of course, there are many other women, accomplished women, of which he could have chosen as his bride, but perhaps consider that he was feeling ill that day. Perhaps this momentary sickness brought forth wild actions. Whatever the reason, there is no arguing that Mr. Darcy is very deserving of any wife he wants. (even if she's uneducated and wild...)

  2. Forgive me, Mr. Collins, but I must agree with Miss Bingley! Mr. Darcy is not a bad man! No one is truly a bad person; therefore, I cannot bring myself to understand any reason why you could have called him such.
    But to my lovely Caroline Bingley, I wish you wouldn't speak of my dear sister! I know you couldn't have possibly meant it the way I took it (I do hope) but please do not talk ill of her in such a way!

  3. Mr. Collins, I completely understand your astonishment! How could a man like Mr. Darcy, who has only ridiculed and behaved in such a poor manner to my family and I from the beginning, suddenly take an interest in me? I am entirely bewildered by the matter, and I seek to know the truth of his feelings; however, I continue to think that Charlotte must be mistaken. I am inferior in every circumstance in Mr. Darcy's eyes, and his pride would never allow him to fall for a woman like myself.

  4. Elizabeth! Take the compliment! I dare say you will be very well off if a man of his stature is smitten with you. And Jane, good for you to try to find the best in others. If you keep up that attitude, the men will be flocking towards our doors!

  5. Mr. Collins, I am in fact in love with Elizabeth. I am not a completely arrogant man; I actually care for more than myself. I have actually decided to follow my heart and go for Elizabeth. I am going to propose to her as soon as possible.

  6. Mr. Darcy really is not such an arrogant man as everyone says! He saved me from a marriage that would not have been beneficial to me! That act was incredibly selfless and unselfish! You sir, are the arrogant one for putting yourself over Mr. Darcy. Elizabeth was never in love with you, for I hope that she was always in love with Mr. Darcy.

  7. Mr. Collins, both you and Mr. Darcy have pleasing qualities. And Mr. Darcy is very right in seeing my dear sister, Elizabeth, as a fine figure of a women. I would have to agree that Elizabeth and Darcy were to be married it would be very beneficially.

  8. Mr. Collins,
    I find your analysis of Mr. Darcys current disposition quite inaccurate. Mr. Darcy is a fine and established man, whose pride is well justified; he deserves to be wed to any woman he fancies to spend his life with. Also, I feel it would be extraordinarily disadvantageous for Mr. Darcy to marry Elizabeth. I believe he has been led astray from his true desires by exterior influences and should withdrawal from his pursuit of Elizabeth without hesitation! Mr. Collins, I ask you to do all in your power to separate Elizabeth from Mr. Darcy, and to deliver my good friend the message that he is required at Pemberly immediately. You will be in my debt should you be able to honor my request.

    Honorably,
    Charles Bingly

  9. How dare you call me arrogant Mr. Collins. I fell in love with Elizabeth and i would love nothing more than to marry her. I will not miss my chance with her because I plan to ask her to marry me as soon as possible. I care about Elizabeth more than myself and know that we belong together.

  10. Mr. Collins, you have been poorly informed. In no lifetime would Darcy look at me with feelings of love and admiration. He has clearly made his opinion of me known that I am intolerable and of low class. I also take offense that you would think that I would only marry him because of his relationship to Lady Catherine.

  11. Don't talk about my best friend like that! Mr. Darcy is a nice man who has quite often told me what to do and overruled some of my most important decisions. He helped save me from such an imprudent marriage to Jane. Elizabeth's sister in fact.

    1. Understanding your confusion, you're absolutely insane if you believe that Darcy's social status will cause me to marry him. I could care less who he is related to. I do not marry out of desire for fortune, but love. I do not love Darcy, nor does he gaze at me with any admiration whatsoever. Darcy has made his thoughts of me very apparent. You are delusional if you believe that he feels anything of positivity toward a girl like me.

  12. Do NOT even go there with your trash-talking. This is not some petty love that you call, this is deep from the heart, irresistible and an evoking desire to meet her every single second. But all things aside, I have proposed to her, my one and only love. (Ahem- I don't propose willy nilly like you.)
