Henry Crawford vs. Edward

I've been trying to think of a more eloquent way to state this, but frankly...

I don't like Edward. I don't see why Fanny should continue to like Edward in a romantic way after he shows his affections for Miss Crawford. He also has as many, if not more, faults than Henry, in that he is a terrible hypocrite.

Let me explain:

Fanny is romantically interested in Edward because he 1) is nice to her, 2) is her confidante, and 3) she thinks he has high morals. She is quick to criticize her competitor, Miss Crawford, because she has low morals, and is also critical of Edward's chosen profession. However, Edwards morals seem equal to Miss Crawford's - it doesn't take much to entice him to join in the play.

Shoot, I have to run; I'll expand upon this later.
