Demetrius

To be completely honest, Demetrius is kind of a jerk, but that’s exactly the point! Demetrius is used to highlight how blind love can make us, because even though he demeans Helena, she loves him so much and will do anything for him. He threatens to leave her for dead in the woods, but she continues to chase him anyway. She is exhausted by her unrequited love, but she just can’t help herself, no matter his behaviour towards her.
