How do they fall in love with each other? Why?
Gwendolen falls in love with Jack (pretending to be Ernest). She wants to marry a man named Ernest because that man should be able to live up to his name. He also wants to marry her, but he cannot since his name is not Ernest; thus he would have to reveal his deception and thus show that he does not live up to hi name which she has been so trusting of.
