At the end of the story the The Lady or The Tiger the King's daughter is in love with a guy in the lower class. The King finds out about the secret relationship and put the man in the arena where he had two doors to pick from. One door, had a beautiful woman, which he'd marry and live happy. In the other door, was a hungry tiger, he'd eat him. The king's daughter not only knew which door had the tiger or the lady she also knew the lady. Her lover knew she knew, he looked at her, his eyes asking "Which one?" She motioned to the right. Which one was behind the one she picked, The lady or the tiger?

She knew he knew who the women was too, she had seen them talk and maybe even share a laugh or two. The lady behind the left door, she also felt, she was attracted to her man too, she felt like he felt the same way about her too, and on top of that she was beautiful. To see his face light up when he opened the door would kill her. She's jealous of the girl behind the left door.
Another reason I think she picked the tiger is because, she wanted him to live, but , not with someone else. She loved him and she couldn't handle seeing him love someone else. It's almost like if she couldn't have him, no one could, he might as well be dead . To her there would be no point in him living.
Furthermore I think it's the tiger is, the couldn't be together anyway. Regardless if he lived or died. Either way they can't be together, what's the point in her being sad her whole life because he's with someone else. Wouldn't it be better if she could just see him in the afterlife waiting for her? Instead of him being with someone else. If he dies, she'd still be with him in the afterlife and he'd still be hers. She'd never have to see him love someone else the way he loved
