According to Don Pedro the joining of Benedick and Beatrice in matrimony would serve ideal for both party members. Don Pedro vouches that Benedick, despite his sharp tongue, is a man of nobility, he is honorable and brave. Due to the nature of both Beatrice and Benedick’s wry sense of humor they may very well be the only ones capable of giving each other a run for their money, while this can be the fountain from which rage springs, it can also serve as the base for common understanding. Each person in this scenario is essentially looking at life through the same eyes, both despise the social norm of marriage, but adore the sport of courting one another, the pleasure they receive from the tension built up from their bickering is evident. Both can help each other play their positions in society.

Leonato on the other hand seems to believe the exact opposite of Don Pedro, he believes that Benedick and Beatrice as a couple would drive each other mad in a weeks time. We do see evidence of this as Beatrice and Benedick cannot say a single word to one another without some sort of backlash from the other. Both sides are immature and have a rather base understanding of the world, typical of the dogmatic nature of these characters hell bent on marriage. Both have become so caught up with what they shouldn’t be, they seem to have forgotten their very nature.
