Much to Do About NOthing week1

Beatrice is such an interesting character. It seems like she's in love with Benedick. She's obsessed with him!(even if all she does is insult him). Beatrice really truly does like Benedick, and she's just masking her true feelings about him. Beatrice doesn't want to get hurt (like Benedick). Beatrice and Benedick are so uncannily alike. They both are afraid of love and are obviously meant for each other.
Another peculiar thing that I noticed was that Beatrice has all of these awesome come-backs to throw at Benedick, so she must think of them(and Benedick) in her leisure time.
Oh, yeah...and right from the beginning, Beatrice has been talking about Benedick. Her first line in the whole entire play is "I pray you, is Signior Mountanto returned from the wars or no?" (1.1.30-31). Beatrice is interested in Benedick's whereabouts right from the beginning; which shows that she really does care about him.
