Matchmaker

I think the Mr. Elton, Harriet, Emma drama is very ironic. I love the fact that as the reader, we know Mr.Elton actually likes Emma, but Emma believes he likes Harriet. When Mr. Elton writes the love note, Emma mistakes it as love for Harriet. But in reality, the love note was actually for Emma. This is Emma's fault for playing Mr. Elton on. Emma tries to play matchmaker, but it is backfiring. Instead of making everyone fall in love with Harriet, everyone is falling in love with Emma. If Emma would just think to her own life, and not meddle with everyone elses then this wouldn't happen. I think Mr. Elton is going to break Harriet's heart because he is going to admit his feelings for Emma. I just hope Harriet doesn't start liking Mr. Elton. She needs to learn to tell Emma no and make her own decisions.
