My dearest sister Lizzy's hand in marriage?

I have always thought of this topic of marriage for my younger sister, many time has this came to mind. I have always wondered what sort of man would be the one whom she would fall in love with... I haven't given much thought to Mr. Darcy (of course, I am not trying to spoil his good name; I simply had never given him much thought), and I cannot even begin to believe he asked for her hand!
He, like any good man, deserved a chance at my little sister's heart, but he did not win her. Finding out what had happen was almost too horrible to hear. My poor sister spoke of how horribly worded the proposal was, and I have never felt so embarrassed! I felt horribly sad for Mr. Darcy, for he had loved her, yet she could not return his feelings.
I have never seen any person refuse so many marriage proposals as my dear Lizzy. Not that it is anything bad, I respect her for it! She believes so faithfully in true love! Of course, up until as of late, I had too. I had believed in soul mates and every love story I had ever come across. I guess in a way, I am now a bitter old woman. But fret not, I shall not mope much longer, for I will overcome my sorrow!

  1. Then you agree with me Miss Jane? I must apologize for my breaking up your marriage with my buddy, Bingley, but you must understand my reasons. Anyhow, if you so believe I love Elizabeth, please try and convince her of my true feelings.
