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.
