7. 5. Darcy's letter causes Elizabeth to reflect on the things she thinks about both him and Wickham. She comes to the conclusion that Wickham is untrustworthy and Darcy is not as bad as she had thought. Darcy further explains that he hoped to save his friend Bingley from heartbreak by convincing him that Bingley should leave Jane. Darcy did so only because he had incorrectly perceived that Jane was indifferent to Bingley. Elizabeth realizes that she has been generally much less able to understand the natures of people around her than she had thought, and in particular prejudiced against Darcy and in favor of Wickham. She knew and felt all along how silly her family were, the only two sensible ones that she looked up to was her father and Jane.
