"If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love... I love... I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on." -- Mr. Darcy in Pride & Prejudice (2005).
I was thinking to myself....what is it about Mr. Darcy that continually seduces females, generation after generation? I think it is the idea of hope. The hope that love like that exists so honestly in a person. Even if it was just a creation of someone's mind, it still gives those of us hopeless romantics a chance to believe. We can only imagine how amazing it would feel to be loved so ardently by someone so loyal.
In all reality a lot of the cheesy romantic movies leave me feeling empty and like I'm missing a piece of myself. However, Pride & Prejudice is different. I don't leave feeling like I'm missing something, but rather that I have something to look forward in my life. Hope is an amazing feeling to have. It is just beyond what I feel on a normal basis. Though things are starting to turn. I'm hoping my trip to Seattle will make me feel more excited and alive.
