reply to taemin - If Emily's lover loved him back, things would have turned out pretty well. They would love each other, get married, and have children. They would have formed a happy family. Emily would have never poisoned him.

That would make me lonely and I might end up doing what Emily did.

I would have felt very confused and hopeless. becuase homer had to live with a person that he did not love.

Reply to David Kang's question:

That situation would drive me crazy, but I would not do such a horrible thing like what Ms. Emily did. I would just let that lover leave me in peace.

I would be so desperate to be married and I would do anything to be married with someone. I might end up dying with depression

Jason:
I would probably react the same way as Emily would, I would be frustrated and the only way I would react is by using my frustration and I am not perfect so this is how i would react
