Granted, I am only 10% of my way through book. And though I remember this being my favorite Austen book, I don't remember much of it. But it seems to me, Edmund just might be too ideal.
He cares for Fanny in her moments of despair. He buys her a horse.
Fanny describes him as, "an example of everything good AND great..." (emphasis mine.)
He seems to have a generally well established view of love and money. "he (Edmund) was not pleased that her (Maria's) happiness should centre in a large income..."
And I could go on and on...anything to add?
All in favor, say "I."
