Othello

I think that Othello does truly love Desdimona, she is not just a way for his status and ego to grow. Though the murder of Desdimona was an evil thing for Othello to do, deep down he honestly felt that he had no choice, because she had gone behind his back and cheated him. You can see Othello’s true feelings for Desdimona by many ways, one way was nearing the end of the play after he commits the murder he says that he loved her much, but he did not love her wisley. This meant that he really loved her but once he became suspicious and jealous of her affair with Cassio, he let it get to him so much that he felt there was nothing else to do other than the murder. Aonther way that you can see that he does love Desdimona, and that it is not just an act, is when he and Iago are trying to find ways of killing Desdimona. Othello wanted to do it quick, to get it over with. However, Iago knows that Othello deeply loves his wife and having to kill her slwly and painfully would, in a way, kill him too.
