I think that Mrs. Bennet is the most tiring. She is constantly complaining, and none of her complaints are actually intelligent. She's not an intelligent person to begin with, and is described by more than one character as not being the brightest person in the world. In addition to this, her complaints aren't exactly pertaining to things that are really unique; she complains about worrying and things that everyone else around her is going through without complaint. Her lack of intelligence and constant whining definitely makes her the most tiresome character.
I find Lydia the most tiresome because she seems to move at light speed. She is irrational and doesn't care about anyone but herself. When she comes back to Longborn after she gets married to Wickham she rudly tells Jane that she has to move her seat because Lydia is now married and that makes her better. She is obsesed about the militia and desperately follows them.
I also find Mr. Collins very tiresome because of his exedingly long letters. His excesive praise lacks truth and his boasting of Lady Catherine is overused.
The character I find the most tiresome is definitely Mr. Collins, although Lydia comes in a close second. Mr. Collins, although a necessary character for the plot line, really gets boring after a while. His long winded thank yous and the repetitive descriptions of his graciousness are really over done after his first couple chapters in the book. Lydia is also quite anoying, mostly for the reasons that Elizabeth begins to find her anoying after reading Mr. Darcy's letter. Lydia is quite whinney and really has very little self control. However, the parts of Mr. Collins' character that I find to be flawed are brought up more often than Lydia's flaws, making Mr. Collins a more tiresome addition to the novel.
In my opinion, Mr. Bennet is most tiresome. He basically completely ignores his daughters. And when he does talk to them, he is a jerk-- not at all the type of role model or parent these girls seem to need. Part of it is a superiority complex that he really needs to get over...In truth though, he is not even upper-class. He just constantly frustrates me; I want to put him in his place.
I agree with anonymous, Lydia was the most tiresome character. She was a selfish flirt. After being married she returned pretending to be completely unaware of the trouble and pain she put her family through by running off.
I would say that Lydia is the most tiresome character. She's really self-centered. At the beginning of the story Lydia is obseesed with some members of the militia, and her behavior only goes downhill from there. Running off with Wickham was really impulsive and irresponsible. While I could sometimes find this type of behavior to be more funny than annoying, when combined with her attitude, Lydia just looks brattish.
I completely agree with Sarah. Mr. Bennet is just so ignorant that it is frustrating. It's one of those kind of characters that just make you so angry while reading. He seems to feel so superior to everyone else, and he lets it blind him, but really, he's not. There are way more important and rich people out there
I agree with Kayleigh. I find Mrs. Bennet the most tiring. She doen't think about what comes out of her mouth, she just says how jealous she is of her neighbors, and always complaining about what she doesn't have. She is always pushing her daughters to find a rich husband too. She just never gives up about that and won't stop complaining. She is the most tiresome character. -Kori
I also fidn that mrs. Bennett is tiring, she is jsut a pusher. she push push pushes all the time, and never seems to be happy. maybe the rason she pushed fo rher daughters to get married and have that perfect lifestyle is because o fher own insecurites, and how the pressures of society reflect on her. Also, i feel likenot jsut mrs. bennett, but the the whole social class, wealthy marraige ideal is so prominent within the story that it in a way becomes a character of its own. that, in fact, is deffinately most triesome, ebcause it never ends
