Such amiable qualities must speak for themselves.”（Austen, 1813: 79) And Jane “ her look and manners were opening, cheerful and engaging as ever, but without any symptom of peculiar regard, and I remained convinced from the evening, that though she received his attentions with pleasure, she did not invite them by any participation of sentiment.”(Austen, 1813: 127) Under the influence of Mr. Darcy, Bingley begins to doubt Jane’s affection to him。 he leaves her without saying goodbye.

One of these characteristics is that the feeling cannot be brought on by appearances, and must gradually develop between the two people as they get to know one another.

The Different Understanding about Love and Marriage in Pride and Prejudice The Marriage Based on Feelings of LoveBingley and Jane’s marriage is based on love and rational respect. Jane is the handsomest of the Bennet’s daughters that is why she is the daughter Mrs. Bennet had the highest hopes for. She is humble and unassuming. In a partner, she looks for sensibility, good humor and liveliness. Bingley is rather impressive. He has pleasant countenance and easy affected manner.
