When first reading Van Meter’s “First” my first thoughts was that a girl was describing her friend Ben as “the first brown eyed boy I will fall for” yet as I continued reading I obviously realized the situation (Meter 177). Meter most likely purposely to teach that no matter the situation love is constant. “First” shows that there is no variation between how a person loves another no matter the background, culture, preference the lesson is love is constant. Embracing the diversity of humanity in this case beginning aloof to the author’s gender, allows for bias and experience to have no bearing on one’s capacity to feel love. The author is told by his mother that, “Two people get married when they love each other” yet she does not allows for her child to love another boy (Meter 178).

There is not a day that goes by that Jay Gatsby does not think about his love, Daisy Buchanan, who he is greatly enamored by and for whom he uses many tactics to attract to him, causing it to seem as if his main concern in life was getting Daisy Buchanan back.

The above passage from Pride and Prejudice depicts a major turning point in the novel. This passage follows Mr. Darcy’s marriage proposal to Elizabeth. Before this passage, Mr. Darcy proposes to Elizabeth and then follows by explaining to her all the reasons he tried to stop himself from falling for, claiming that Elizabeth’s low social class would degrade his own social standing and the problem with her family were reasons he tried to resist his feelings for her, which emphasizes the theme of social class because it shows how social class means something different for everyone and is more important to some people than to others. What Mr. Darcy says to Elizabeth before the passage above illustrates a justification to Elizabeth’s anger towards Mr. Darcy and is a reason Elizabeth was so angry and frustrated towards Mr. Darcy in this passage, compared to when she rejected Mr. Collin’s marriage proposal. The current behaviors of Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy contrast to their usual behavior portrayed in the novel leading up to this passage, especially Mr. Darcy’s.
