Did Jane and Peter Pan fall in love?

Answer 1

Do you mean in the movie or the book? As in the book we didn't know as much about Jane as we did with Wendy; except that she (Jane) was the daughter of Wendy and came with Peter Pan to Neverland. She had a daughter, Margaret, and that's probably the little we learned about Jane in the book.

But in the movie, we learn much more about Jane, both about her personality and appearance.

Personally, I don't think Peter and Jane fell in love, the very idea (in my opinion) is somewhat crazy. Jane is so unlike Wendy and I never think Jane had a crush on Peter as Wendy had. Jane's more like Wendy's father. This is a short text I found about Jane:

''As a young child, Jane believes in Neverland and enjoys hearing her mother's (Wendy's) stories about Peter Pan. However, when World War II breaks out, her father is called to serve in the war and Jane is asked to take care of her mother and brother. As the war goes on, she becomes cynical and stops believing in both Neverland and Peter Pan.''

It was a while ago I watched Peter Pan and the Return to Neverland, but I certainly remember that I didn't like Jane, and that she didn't like Peter that much at the beginning.

But that kind of changes at the end when she says something like: ''I will always believe in you, Peter Pan.''

And I remember that she said so in a dreamy voice, *hmpf*.

So.... Jane maybe had a tiny crush at Peter Pan at the end (who could blame her?), but I found it quite impossible that Peter returned those feelings.

OUT OF TOPIC:

I've always believed that Peter and Wendy had feelings for each other.

The author himself wrote that Peter loves Wendy; ''however, it is not a romantic love, he thinks of her as his mother. Barrie attributes this to "the riddle of his existence".''

Hmpf. We all know that Peter loved Wendy, anyways. With and without any riddle.

Answer 2

Yes, I feel they did. And it makes Peter Pan finally grow up, to be with the girl, the female that catches his heart, like her mother Wendy did. This time, Peter Pan was not going to let Jane go, and no matter what, spend the rest of his days with her, having a family and growing old together. For all good things must come to an end. And that Peter Pan was not going to lose another Darling..... or female that he had grown, fallen in love and lust with.
