They knew no malice was involved.

Why don't you like Miss Havisham? GE is my favourite Dickens novel and I feel sorry for Miss Havisham. One of my colleagues when I was teaching was a Miss Havisham. She was at the altar and her husband-to-be just didn't turn up. She was a very bitter woman. Understandably so.

This says more about me than it does about you. It influenced my view of the Miss Havishams of this world.

I know there's no malice involved on your part.
