Did Not Get the Girl: Jane Austen (the protagonist) doesn't end up with Tom Lefroy, her big love, because his family doesn't approve of their match and she feels he has an obligation to them. Also, neither of them has an independent fortune, so had they married, they would have struggled. It's implied that Tom hasn't stopped loving her and from his looks, he still deeply admires Jane, now an accomplished writer.
