My dear girl, you are clearly On the Shelf. You
are unmarried and in your mid-twenties. You
are intelligent and sensible, but quiet, and
consider yourself plain. You have had
several Seasons, but never received an offer,
or perhaps you refused the offers you
received. The reason for this is that you
have always loved the man you danced with
shortly after you came out at 18. He, of
course, never returned your affections, or
even knew about them, and is probably
courting your sister. Nevertheless, he
always seems to like you, and treats you much
as he treats his sisters. Your love for him
is immediately evident to everyone else,
especially his sister, aunt or mother, who
think you are the best possible wife for him.
This attitude may prove either helpful or
difficult, depending on how much the author
likes you. When an accident befalls, your
calm practicality and ability to stitch up
wounds impresses him, and all of a sudden he
finds himself noticing the way your smile
transforms your face, lighting your eyes and
making you quietly beautiful. His interest
and appreciation will quickly turn to love,
but he will have to spend the rest of the
novel trying to convince you that his
affection is genuine and not a result of
pity.
