There has been a lot of speculation about the relationship Jane Austen had with Thomas Lefroy. Surviving letters of both of them (not to each other) indicate they were both rather smitten with each other. It seems, however, that they only saw each other during the course of two months, and quite probably always in company of other people, because social custom of the time prohibited their being alone together. This was when Jane Austen was just turning twenty. Lefroy went on to be the Lord Chief Justice of Ireland.

Why did Jane Austen reject Tom Lefroy?
We really have no reason to believe Jane Austen rejected Thom Lefroy. We know they knew each other for about five or six weeks when she was 21, and that they flirted with each other, as Jane recorded in a letter. But we have no reason to believe they were ever together more than five or six times. There is reason to believe his family separated them because neither he nor she had any money.The movie Becoming Jane had them try to elope, with Jane abandoning the elopement and returning home because she learned that Tom Lefroy was providing important income for his family in Ireland out of his scant income. We have every reason to believe nothing of the sort every happened, though it makes a good story for a movie.
Was Jane Austen ever sad or depressed?
No, she never married. She was proposed to by suitor Harris Bigg-Wither, who was a very wealthy man. She accepted his proposal at first, but rejected him after thinking about the idea for less than a day.In the film Becoming Jane, she is shown eloping with Tom Lefroy, only to change her mind, but in fact there is no indication that anything like this ever happened. It is clear they were attracted to each other, but it seems they might have seen each other only a few times over a period of less than two months.
