“It darted through her, with the speed of an arrow, that Mr. Knightley must marry no one but herself”

the most underrated scene in emma is when miss bates is speaking to mr. knightley through her window, and she invites him to come bc everyone, including emma, is there, and he’s like sure!! but then he learns that FRANK is also there and he’s like oh i’m actually in a hurry
miss bates: miss woodhouse is here!!
knightley: oh well i’ll come inside if you ask me to
miss bates: so is mr. churchill!!
knightley: nevermind

I feel like you could fairly easily argue that Emma doesn't have an actual romantic attachment to Knightley (though I think *he* definitely does).
It really just sounds like she wants to marry him because otherwise her extremely confined, extremely boring life would become absolutely unbearable. She can't bear to lose him as a friend, so she secures him as a husband.
