Gilbert Blythe is Anne's childhood classmate, arch enemy, life saver, friend, fellow teacher and later Anne's husband. He became Anne's arch enemy by calling her a "carrot". This statement made Anne very angry so she whacked Gilbert on the head with her writing board until it cracked in half. He had a crush on Anne but pretened to be her worst enemy. Later in the story, Anne and her friends are playing a reanactment game which involved Anne being a corpse which was floating away on a boat. The actual boat was supposed to land safely on the other side of the lake but the boat was very old and started to sink! Anne grabbed hold of a hanging branch but did not have any footholds so she had to hang on for dear life. Her friends which saw her boat sink cried in despair as they thought she had drowned! Several hours later Gilbert Blythe came rowing in a boat and rescued Anne. However, they still remained enemies. Several years later, Anne and Gilbert, both being talented students decided to go to a teaching college - where they would learn the necessary skills to become a teacher. One day Marilla, Anne's adopted mother learnt that she had a large chance of turning blind if she didn't stop working so hard. Saddened by the news, Anne returned home to Green Gables and and gave up her chance at her college. She decided to work at a far school as her nearest school was already taken by Gilbert. It had been many years since Anne and Gilbert fought but Gilbert still had stong feelings for Anne. He gave up his post as the teacher at his school and gave it to Anne, so that it could be easier for her to take care of Marilla. Learning the news, Anne and Gilbert finally became friends.
