I feel that Eveline is a sympathetic character. She sympathizes with her father even though he isn't the greatest dad in the world, and she also thinks that he's going to start abusing her; however, she stays with him. She feels guilty leaving him for her own pleasure because she has promised her mother that she would look after the family. I don't think that Eveline really loved Frank. She might have been in love with the idea of loving him, but she didn't have any true feelings for him when she stayed back. She says in the story that she could learn to love him. Ultimately, he was her way out of her depressing lifestyle, but she realized the importance of her promise. Eveline's father and Miss Gavan do not show any affection for her. She is simply there and they depend on her to always be there to do her job; however, they never recognize her for all the work she does. Eveline has a less than desirable lifestyle seeing as she works for and dedicates her life to helping others who take advantage of her.
