As you can tell Jack and Gwendoline has a lot of money and are both very sturdy when you read Scene one of the play …show more content…
I have a feeling that they will be happier together with their marriage than Jack and Gwendoline because they are always talking about fun topics and also that Algernon wants to marry her because of who she is since he not once asked her about how much she makes. Unlike Algernon and Cecily, Jack and Gwendolen both seem to act a bit too proper toward each other, especially when they say they love each other like in scene one “Jack: Charming day it has been, Miss Fairfax…” Gwendoline: … whenever people talk about the weather I feel quite certain that they mean something else…” (Wild 19).

The girls are not the only ones to blame for their relationships, not working completely either because the boys are way to untrustworthy mainly because they like to lie about who they are and also what they are doing. You know that Algernon is going to find some other way to get out of thing that he doesn’t want to do and you know that Cecily will find out and start an argument about
