Question

Mme loisel disposition invites her doom. comment​

Answer 1

It is absolutely true Madame Loisel's disposition invited her own doom. Mathilde herself was responsible for her own sorrows because of her obsession with the luxuries of high class society. She had always longed to wear elegant, stylish and dainty clothes and jewellery. Unfortunately, she had been married to a clerk who could not afford all these things. Her obsession and love for trinkets brought her sorrow which she could have avoided.  

The fate or Providence taught her a lesson for her flaw.  Her husband received invitation to the ball; she became abnormally excited about it. She went beyond her means to make arrangements for herself for the ball. She spent excessively on her dress. And for the jewellery, she thought of borrowing Madame Forestier’s necklace.  

Unfortunately, the borrowed necklace was lost at the party. She and her husband had to face ten years’ grueling headships to pay for the replacement of the lost necklace. After ten years she came to know from Madame Forestier that it was just an artificial necklace.  

If Mrs. Loisel (Mathilde) had not gone beyond her means to attend the ball, she would not have faced all those hardships. If she had not been so much obsessed about trinkets and gimmicks of life, she would have been far more contented.  

 

Answer 2

Answer:

Mme Loisel belongs to a family of clerks. Her existence is quite average. They live on meagre income, enough for basic needs but not to fulfil aspirations. She gets married to a clerk and is so caught up with her dreams of wealth and pleasure that she is out of touch with the truths of her real life. In order to keep up appearances just to flatter her pride, she blows up four hundred francs on a gorgeous dress. And, not contented, she goes on borrowing a necklace from her friend. And, all of this is just to impress the as well to replace it. Repayment of the debt eats away the next ten years of their youth. They live poor. All the house hold chores and cares of a life of poverty visit them. Hence, her disposition invites her doom.
