List of Austen men in the order of who I'd most likely marry

...if they exist today and happen to be Reformed Baptists.

1. Mr. George Knightley from Emma.

I love you, Mr. Knightley, and I don't care how old you are. You are so perfect. There is nothing wrong with you. Unfortunately people like you do not exist except in novels and mangas. Oh, the sorrow.

2. Edmund Bertram from Mansfield Park.

You're a nice boy, Mr. Bertram. You've got strong morals and stick to them. You've got a good and loving heart. I think my Mum would be rather fond of you. Though I must say, in regards to Mary Crawford, what were you thinking?!!!!! Fortunately, there are some nice boys in the world who are like you.

I just need to find them.

3. Captain Fredrick Wentworth from Persuasion.

I like you, Captain Wentworth. Me thinks we'd get along capitally well. Your constancy is admirable. You like the plain girls as much as or more than the pretty ones which tells me that we'll suit. Your only weakness is that you can't say no to your lady which is fine with me. Muhahahaaa! And who cares if Sir Elliot and Lady Russell don't approve of you! My Papa and Mamma will.

4. Henry Tilney

You're a nice guy, Mr. Tilney. You're fun and clever and a positive example of Miss Austen's clergymen along with Edmund Bertram. I like that you try to do the right thing by everyone. My Papa would prefer you most next to Mr. Knightley. Only I fear that I would be very much afraid of you.

5. Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy

I actually do like you, Sir, so don't be so offended that you're fifth in the list. It's just that my Mum and Papa wouldn't in the least approve of you. You're too big headed.

6. Edward Ferrars

Nice boy but poor judgement. Or maybe I haven't read Sense and Sensibility properly.

7. Colonel Brandon

You're too old for me, I'm afraid (Mr. Knightley is the exception). But I have tremendous respect for you. I'm sure we'd be best friends.
