But I begin to fancy you don't like me. How strange! I thought, though everybody hated and despised each other, they could not avoid loving me. {Catherine Linton, nee Earnshaw}
Catherine Linton, also known as Catherine Earnshaw, subtly expresses her feelings of doubt about her desirability. She begins to suspect that others may not actually like her, despite her belief that she is universally loved and admired. This reflects her inner insecurity and longing for reassurance about her worth in the eyes of others.
Her remark also highlights the complex nature of human relationships in the story. She notes that even in a world where hatred and despising often prevail, love for her seems inevitable, suggesting a paradoxical view of her social standing and emotional experiences among the characters.
