Beatrice's attitude about love and life changes drastically during the course of the play. She begins the novel by feeling very cynical of love and uses her sharp wit and intellect to avoid having to show any vulnerability. Her cousin, Hero, falls in love with another man, and Beatrice makes several comments to Hero about the silliness of the whole thing.
