Janie's motivation to run off with Tea Cake and get married is that Tea Cake is a fresh breath of air, he lives a different lifestyle than what shes used to and he shares it with her and she realizes it's the lifestyle she's always wanted. She wants to experience new things that she wouldn't have been able to experience when she was with Jody. This is very similar to her motivation for running off with Jody in the first place but hopefully it will end differently for her this time.
Janie experiences a change in values and personality in Chapters 11 and 12. She realizes she wants to stop living like her grandma wanted her to live and to start living how she wants to live. She also no longer cares what the community thinks of her or her actions, this gives Janie a more carefree personality that allows her to go off with Tea Cake and experience new things and to find herself.
