It would not be a bad thing for her to be very much in love with a proper object.

I should like to see Emma in love, and in some doubt of a return; it would do her good.

"There does, indeed, seem as little to tempt her to break her resolution at present," said Mrs.Weston, "as can well be; and while she is so happy at Hartfield, I cannot wish her to be forming any attachment which would be creating such difficulties on poor Mr.Woodhouse's account.
