After every party, you're the one who starts with 'did you see their face when...?' Like Elizabeth, one witty line from you can flip a whole room, and the more someone tries to scare you, the bolder you get. For family, you'll march through any muddy field.

Things a Elizabeth Bennet type often says

  • Did you see their face just then?
  • We shouldn't judge by first impressions. Probably.
  • The more you try to scare me, the braver I get.

In a group, I'm

Resident wit and keeper of the observation log

As a friend, I'm

The friend who laughs it off with you, whatever happened

When stressed

A long walk sorts your thoughts. A good chat with a sister or friend finishes the job.

Sound familiar, Elizabeth Bennet type?

  • After a party you start with 'did you see their face?'
  • You trust your own judgement over answers handed to you
  • The more urgent it gets, the calmer you are, taking things in order
  • People-watching, you read every tone and expression

Where you shine

  1. Reads people at a glance

    From tone, glances and who sits where, you read people's moods and relationships. Your 'observation notes' after a party are always sharp and funny.

  2. Unshaken in any room

    You don't bow your head when someone tries to scare or belittle you. Whatever their rank or age, you say what needs saying, politely but clearly.

  3. Wit that flips the mood

    When the mood gets heavy, one witty line turns it around. You hide a sharp truth inside a laugh and let people think for themselves.

Watch out for

When first impressions become verdicts

Because you're so perceptive, you can decide 'that's the kind of person they are' after one meeting, just as Elizabeth misjudged Darcy.

Try thisHold off judging until the second meeting, even after a bad first impression. There may be a hidden story.

When wit stings

If a joke is too sharp, the listener can't laugh along and gets hurt.

Try thisBefore the joke, ask yourself, 'can this person laugh with me?'

A famous scene

Hearing her sister Jane is ill, Elizabeth walks miles across muddy fields to Netherfield, carriage or no carriage.

A line from the book

There is a stubbornness about me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of others. My courage always rises at every attempt to intimidate me.
