I strongly believe that Catherine did not hold the same love that Heathcliff held for her. It was not true nor sincere. Heathcliff holds a deep love for Catherine that would never end and where no one else will do. However, as does Catherine with Heathcliff, the love was more superficial where she did not generally love Heathcliff. After Catherine dies just after giving birth to Cathy, Cathy learns to love the correct way; enforcing Brontë's method of true love. Where as Catherine chooses to be with Edgar due to his financial health, good looks, and social class; while Cathy chooses to actually spend time with Hareton in order to understand and realized the love she held for him. If you are truly in love, death cannot separate you spiritually. While Lockwood’s unexpected stay at the Heights, he had witnessed a ghost luring near his bedside window, crying and screaming for Lockwood to “let [her] in!”. Once Heathcliff is notified of the strange ghost instead his house, he is not terrified nor hesitant. Heathcliff simply sits by the window and cries out to the voice, “come in! Come in! Cathy, do come. Oh do-once more! Oh! My heart's darling, hear me this time-Catherine, at last!” Just a glimpse of Catherine would trigger the long-suffering Heathcliff, who believes in communication beyond the grave.  Heathcliff feels Catherine's reach beyond the grave, which holds out the promise that their love doesn't have to die. Rather than being stunned, Heathcliff is begging and encouraging the voice, referred to as Cathy, to enter his home. He is far from afraid of ghosts and has clearly spent a lot of time trying to get Catherine to haunt him. Being in her ghostly presence would mean anything to Heathcliff. As Catherine got the chance to be with Heathcliff for better or for worse, she chose Edgar. If Heathcliff was not brought down into such low standards, perhaps things could had been different. Several individuals view Heathcliff as an outcast and less worthy. However, “if the wicked man in there had not brought Heathcliff so low, [Catherine] shouldn't have thought of [marrying Edgar].” With the conditions of how things are currently, Catherine believes marrying Heathcliff “would degrade [her].” No matter what their “souls are made of, his and [hers] are the same…” (9). Catherine refuses to marry Heathcliff due to the way society views him. Ever since Heathcliff was a young boy, he was constantly put down and called outrageous name, lots of hatred was thrown at him. Due to this, if Catherine marries Heathcliff, she will not be looked at with as much respect as previously, it will indeed wreck her reputation although she does care and love Heathcliff greatly, for she sees herself in him. As for Cathy, she was suppose to be marrying Linto in order for Heathcliff I gain wealth and land. Howeber, she went against the odd so and decided to marry Hareton after spending a great amount of time with him and truly getting to know him.
