"What Would Jane Do"

The summer of 2013 was one of the worse summers I've ever experienced. I met a guy, and he had me at hello. He was charming, funny, goofy, aggressive, flirtatious, and cute. We talked one day and ended up exchanging numbers through a good friend of mines. I didn't know that this would be the start of depression for me. After we exchanged numbers we talked on the phone a couple times, and became very acquainted with one another. Our first date was amazing, and everything was going good until he started flirting with other girls. My feelings were very invested in him, but I guess his feelings for me weren't the same. I would notice him flirting with girls, and I would get really upset to the point where I wasn't eating. This was the start of my depression. My attitude began to change, and any time I seen him flirting with someone else it made me sick to my stomach. I was losing weight, and just wasn't myself. I was never raised to be stressed about  a guy. My mom raised me to always love my self, and that guys always came last. I should have listened to her, because now I'm depressed and I cant really talk to anyone, because I'm afraid of being judged. One day I decided that I wasn't going to deal with it anymore. I had to realize that a guy is going to be a guy, and flirting is in their nature. Instead of leaving him I expressed to him how I felt, and we've been working it out. Iv'e never been really serious with a guy until him, and this has allowed me to mature in so many ways. I've learned to always love and put myself first. Never let a guy see that your weak, and in relationships you have to communicate for things to work out.

In this situation I think Jane would've left . After Jane found out about Rochester's second wife she was in great distress, and decided to leave him for a while. She had to figure out what she wanted, and how to deal with the situation at hand. Sometimes you have to remove yourself from a situation to realize what your needs and wants are.In order to be with somebody you have to know who you are as a person, and live out your dreams. I believe that's what Jane did. She knew that marrying St. John wasn't the ideal thing for her to do, so she went back to the only man that ever loved her.
