<h3>Who is Mathilde?</h3>
Mathilde Loisel is the main character in the short story "The Necklace," by Guy de Maupassant. She is not a bad person, but she does have a major flaw that will lead to the conflict and resolution of the story. Mathilde is not a humble or content woman. She has a good life, but is not wealthy, fancy, chic. And that bothers her tremendously.
Such a desire for expensive things and for admiration is what leads Mathilde to her poor fate. She borrows what she believes to be a real diamond necklace from a friend. Upon losing that necklace, she buys a new one and spends 10 years of her life working to pay for it. She loses the youth and beauty she has in the process. After all that time, she find out the necklace she lost was a fake one.
The irony is obvious - Mathilde's greed causes her demise, and even real rich people do not spend their money on such expensive things as a diamond necklace.
