Not lowering standards Written by Rose G (6/20/2007 8:52 a.m.) in consequence of the missive, Elizabeth's perspective on Bingley and Jane (Ch. 54), penned by Lila

Lizzy is forced to admit to herself that Darcy is right about her family's lack of decorum when she reads his letter.

After that, everything she sees and hears works away at her dislike until it turns into love. She is not lowering her standards, she is learning to appreciate his true worth.
