She was heart whole and determined to be logical. But Cupid struck her when she least expected it and that too her heart was lost to her sworn "enemy" Fitzwilliam Darcy! Darcy represented the refined, polished, upper class English society. He place great importance on the breeding and family name, which were quite lacking in case of Elizabeth.
Darcy fell in love with Elizabeth in spite of the perceived inequalities of their status. He still had not learnt to humble himself for love and was refused by Elizabeth. It was then, love taught him that when a person is in love, he is just in love. The hurdles can be eased away with the power of lover, for when in love the lover moulds himself for the beloved. Darcy and Elizabeth both reinvented themselves for each other and love won. Connect to My Dear Valentine for more.
