Love is a very complex concept given in the nature of the human being. What other way of expressing and interpreting love than in "A Midsummer Night's Dream", the play of magic facing reality and love, written by William Shakespeare. Shakespeare, in this play explores a small vision of love and evolves the play based on this interpretation. It is clear that the vision foreseen is the different types of love in relationships, or else the different types of relationships within the concept, love. These classifications of love and relationships are demonstrated through three couples in the book, which are; Hermia and Lysander, Helena and Demetrius, and Titania with Oberon.
             The first couple represented would be Hermia and Lysander. Through Shakespeare's eyes the interpretation gathered of this couple, is that both lovers love each other. This is one of the most common and favorable types of relationship and love that both own. Hermia swears "by Cupid's strongest bow" that she loves Lysander. Furthermore, Lysander says he is "as well possessed" and in true love with Hermia. Everything seems very joyful in this couple; such as a perfect one.

This is the case where the situation is planted, where Shakespeare takes us to explore this view of love. Helena is desperate since she is frantically in love with Demetrius. The more she loves "the more he hateth [her]". In the mean while Demetrius is after Hermia, since (supposedly) she's his true love and denies his love to Helena. As the persecution starts, the only not being followed is poor Helena. Demetrius runs and hides in the "brakes", while Helena chases him. But at the end...
