“hate should strike me down” and as it should, rochester. like i dont despise his character by any means, i truly do sympathize with his situation because its BAD, but the way he takes advantage of jane’s trust and ignorance and attempts to condemn her to a situation she is completely unaware of is undeniably fucked up and for that, he does deserve every bad thing that comes to him in this story.

“i feigned courtship of miss ingram, because i wished to render you as madly in love with me as i was with you; and i knew jealously would be the best ally i could call in for the furtherance of that end.” ahhhhh i fucking KNEW IT. i swearrrr i don’t remember this from my first read at all but i guess it was kind of obvious either way

pt.6
ALSO him mentioning that miss ingram is buxom (this must be wildly inappropriate to discuss?? but as we know rochester has no fucking chill) damn well knowing that jane is flat chested is plain mean like i’d kill myself right in front of him

but like rochester saying “the night before i am married… will you promise to sit up with me to bear me company? to you i can talk of my lovely one…” is cruel and unusual punishment like truly what did jane do to deserve this

this aligns perfectly when earlier, regarding a past lover, he says to jane “you never felt jealousy did you, miss eyre? of course not… because you never felt love” so it makes complete sense that he would want to make her jealous to see if she loves him!!! omg the hints charlotte brontë drops throughout this novel are unmatched she’s such a good fucking writer. i see you girl and i eat it uppp

but because rochester does love jane, he tries to make her jealous when she appears ignorant to his advances, partly because he is petty and frustrated , but also because he wants to gage her reaction to see if the idea of him being wed to another woman upsets her. i would think he hopes if she can recognize this upset then maybe she would realize her true feelings.

he even tells her as he’s disguised, “chance has meted you a measure of happiness… it depends on you to stretch out your hand..” so he literally is encouraging her to return his affections BUT he is also aware that (because he knows her so well) “she will not let feelings burst away and hurry her to wild chasms..” it would seem he wants to leave the decision up to her so to not make her uncomfortable

i have such a love/hate relationship with rochester trying to make jane jealous by using his prospect of marriage to miss ingram. on one hand it’s literally cruel and i want him to fuck off and die because of it but on the other hand considering jane is his employee and she is CONSIDERABLY younger than him, i do think he is waiting for her to make a move since he has already made PLENTY.
