When Jane Austen finished writing Pride and Prejudice, she worried it was “rather too light, and bright, and sparkling.”
But there’s a reason so many authors have succeeded with modern re-tellings of Jane Austen’s work. The era may change, but the human heart does not.
So grab your handkerchiefs… The following is some sage wisdom we can glean from Ms. Austen.

Love Requires Courage and Hope
In Austen’s novels, her heroines fall for characters whose true nature is revealed slowly. But they don’t sit on the sidelines waiting to make those discoveries. They get their knees (and hearts) skinned before they realize the truth.
Austen’s characters dared to take risks, fail, and find new love.

Learn to Take Rejection Gracefully
Back in Austen’s day, someone could easily refuse a gentleman. If you wanted to leave a party or your escort, you could say, “I am feeling unwell,” and no one would question your little euphemism for “You, sir, are making me ill.”
It takes self-assuredness not to take rejection personally. Pride certainly has its place. But misplaced pride can often keep us from giving others second chances or, even worse, cause us to scorecard relationship investments.

Be More Honorable
Regency husband hunting was as brutal as incessant swiping, but with one caveat — everyone had to follow the rules of engagement. No one ghosted someone or didn’t confirm a date. And if you did, your reputation would suffer. Only a total cad would leave a lady wondering if he had forgotten their engagement.
In Austen’s day, love was coupled with honor. Not so today. Many single people’s code of ethics has fallen into the Dickensian gutter.
Unfortunately, you can be as cruel as you like on a dating app without consequences. Anonymity causes us to treat people like options instead of choices.
