After all
these movie, song and book characters it’s safe to admit that Jane
Austin created the perfect man. I suspect Darcy was based in some sort of guy
she fell for in her days. Years of longing for the ultimate love (she was
obviously a hopeless romantic), years of unsuccessful courting and years of rejecting
possible suitors led her to pour all of her desires, fantasies, needs and
experiences in one guy, a nonexistent that is. And yes Mr. Darcy is what any
woman secretly wants. At the beginning he seems too quite, too boring and snob
but at the same time he creates a sense of mystery around him. That is something
that every woman in her right mind values. He seems to be effortlessly charming
but he is fixated in one girl. He is not a social butterfly but he is capable
of deep emotions that he rarely expresses (an other quality that women seem to
value). He sure looks like someone I would love to go drinking with in order to
seduce him and make him open up. A mystery to unravel for myself. In a world of
fast communication where things are said but not meant he would definitely had
been a rare exception.
