is it loveee? blog

I'm pretty sure that Hamlet did have feelings for Ophelia prior to Act 3. However, what he did feel for her was not a deep love, because he would not have been able to get over her as quickly as he did! From the things he said and the actions that he portrayed, you are able to see how he did at one point have somesort of love for her and that quickly changed into rude comments and inappropriate suggestions. In Act II scene ii and perhaps even before this, Hamlet writes love letters to Ophelia expressing his desires in a relationship with her. After a brief (and somewhat frightening) encounter, Hamlet appears angry with Ophelia. He tells her that she is a prostitute and that she should join a nunery. Now how about a comment like that? whooo Hamlet has some major guts.
