Lysander and Demetrius are characters in William Shakespeare's play "A Midsummer Night's Dream." Lysander is portrayed as a rational and romantic lover who is deeply in love with Hermia. Demetrius, on the other hand, initially pursues Hermia but later falls in love with Helena due to the effects of a love potion. Lysander's love for Hermia is genuine and based on mutual affection, while Demetrius' feelings for Helena are manipulated and initially one-sided.

Before the play starts Helena is engaged with Demetrius, and Hermia and Lysander are in love with each other and are planning to get married. But then Demetrius falls in love with Hermia and wants to marry her, Hermia still loves Lysander and does not want to marry Demetrius (Hermia's father wants Hermia to marry Demetrius). Helena still loves Demetrius. Then Lysander loves Helena who loves Demetrius who loves Hermia, Hermia still loves Lysander. Demetrius then changes his thoughts and starts to love Helena again, but Lysander is still in love with Helena. But then every thing changes as everyone goes back to who they loved in the first place; Helena -> Demetrius Demetrius -> Helena Hermia -> Lysander Lysander -> Hermia Very confusing! :)
The four young lovers in A Midsummer Night's Dream are Hermia, Lysander, Helena, and Demetrius. The play explores their intertwined romantic entanglements amidst the magical chaos unleashed by the fairy Puck.
A "love triangle" is when three people are involved with each other, either directly or indirectly. For instance, a man dating two different women who might or might not know about each other.
Lysander says in act 1 scene 1 that Demetrius was being rude and ignorant by isolating Helena, so he thinks that Demetrius would do the same to Hermia. He tried explaining this to Egeus but Egeus did not take Lysanders word for it.
Titania, Lysander and Demetrius. Titania and Lysander get the antidote.
