Love In A Midsummer's Night Dream

The Fickleness of Love

Surprises are not admired by many people because they are unpredictable and they do not have control over them. However, being in a relationship involve surprises - either positive or negative. There are many obstacles in a relationship, as they might change out-of-the-blue and things do not go as planned. For this reason, an indispensable element to any healthy relationship is flexibility. In A Midsummer’s Night Dream, William Shakespeare presents falling in love as effortless, yet it is associated with many challenges after someone falls in love. He invariably proves that love is unpredictable by using mythical creatures and potions. Love is unpredictable as fate, chemistry and maybe even a bit of magic have a potent
There are plenty of unpredictable circumstances that occur in life, but they might draw people closer to their companion. People who are meant to be together will attract inevitably, and it is astonishing how fate affixes us to one another. While the lovers were in the woods, it was conspicuous that the fairies ultimately created fate. All the unpredictable assets are part of an overall picture and each insignificant asset is a factor affecting the conclusion.

In particular, when Egeus laid down the law by telling Theseus that he “...can dispose of her;/Which shall be either to this gentleman/ Or to her death,…” (I: i: 43-45). If Egeus did not go to Theseus about this contention, then the lovers would never escape into the woods. Therefore, Demetrius would still love Hermia and not Helena.

True connection is always more tenacious than the feeling of love at first sight, but the feeling can evolve into something deeper. Falling in love, at first sight, requires a bit of magic when Oberon, the fairy, states that “The juice of it.../Will make or man or woman madly dote/Upon the next live creature that it sees.” (II: i: 173-175). When magic love juice is used, it causes the person to fall in love with the first thing they see. Thus, this quote symbolizes love at first sight. In the play, the potion made Demetrius fall in love with Helena while Lysander loves Hermia because of the connection they had before. Though falling in love might be easy and unpredictable, as presented in this play; staying in love is the complicated and rare
