I guess the conflict could be seen as man vs self - Mathilde allows vanity, selfish pride and envy to cause her downfall. She makes one poor decision after another all in an attempt to appear to be something she is not. She foolishly spends 400 francs on an elegant gown to wear to a ball and borrows a necklace from a wealthy friend because she cannot bear to be seen in the company of wealthy women and appear to be "beneath" them in class.

She wants to appear to be of the upper, wealthy class, though she belongs to the middle class. She is so preoccupied with her appearance and her wishes and dreams to be like the women of higher society that she spends her husband's savings on a gown and borrows what she believes to be a diamond necklace of great value - and she is a great success at the ball. She is sought after and admired and she has a wonderful evening. Then, in her haste to leave the ball and not be seen in her inexpensive wraps (in sharp contrast to the ball gown and necklace she is wearing - and to the furs the other women are putting on as they prepare to leave) she loses the necklace.

She and her husband decide not to tell Mme Forestier (the friend from whom she borrowed the necklace). Instead, they use all the money they have and borrow even more to purchase a replacement. This drastically alters the course of their lives and it takes them 10 years to pay off their debt. In the end, she assumes the responsibility for what she has done and submits herself to poverty to pay for the necklace. She becomes part of the lower class.

Once the debt has been settled, she says she is glad. However, Mathilde Loisel still dreams about the night she went to the ball and remembers how admired she was. So, whether or not she has truly learned her lesson about envy and appearances, we can only guess.

i hate that poem and i think i know what your talking about. here.. team is down. 9th inning. bases loaded team is almost to victory if they can score a homerun. 2 kids come to bat. both out. casey comes up. everyone is glad + expect him to win the game casey acts cocky lik the little kid he is misses the first two balls on purpose third ball is thrown casey strikes out i thought that kid deserved it "The umpire makes a decision that Casey doesn't like, and an argument follows, during which Casey deftly trips him up, and continues the argument on the ground. The other players run from the bench and join in the rumpus. The fielders come running in and the pile on the home plate looks like a foot ball scrimmage. A solemn warning to all rotten umpires."

Basically in "The Necklace" a woman decides to borrow one of her friends diamond necklace for a party. After leaving the party, she checks to see if the necklace is still around her neck. It's gone. So instead of telling her friend whom she borrowed the necklace from that she lost it, she spent years trying to scrape up the money to pay for a new real diamond necklace.. After finally replacing it to the owner, the woman lets her know that it was not even real.

That depends on the design (was it made by a famous jewelry designer?), weight (how much gold is there), and condition of the necklace.
