Is anyone interested in some good ole fashioned Rosamund bashing?
She makes me sick! She took a perfectly good man and turned him into a "failure" to use his words. I cannot stand her whining and crying about how Dr. Lydgate "likes" to sell their house and furniture. She should run off with Ladislaw and leave Dr. Lydgate for Dorothea.
Of course, I would not like anyone who was not nice to "my" Dr. Lydgate.

Rosamund was such a selfish character. Spoiled all her life, pretty, I think
that she just had to pout a little and everybody would fall at her feet. She therefore thinks too highly of herself and has absolutely no idea of what marriage is about. For her it`s not getting to be a spinster, having someone flatter her every day, buy her things and no unpleasantness whatsoever. She is totally childish. Accomplishments and no real feeling for others but herself. Very sad.

I agree-I think she has no concept of responsibility-it is Lydgate who always feels guilty, not she-even when she went riding against his wishes and had a miscarriage. And the way she flatters the rich, titled bumpkin relative! Ugh!
P.S. I like Ladislaw, so I think he did not do anything bad enough to be stuck with Rosamond-for that would be an awful punishment!
