Although Darcy is seen as a presumptuous and conceited jerk at the beginning of the novel, he has a very special transformation. Darcy starts to reveal his deepest and inner feeling for Elizabeth without letting his pride come in the way. Elizabeth notices this change in Darcy as she says “his behavior, so strikingly altered”. This shows that Darcy has changed and that Elizabeth actually acknowledges this change. Elizabeth really noticed Darcy’s changed attitude especially once Darcy says “my affections and wishes are unchanged, but one word from you will silence me on this subject forever”, Darcy at this point has put his whole heart on his sleeve for Elizabeth to claim. By saying he respects her true feelings for him no matter the outcome
