Talk:Ezra Fitz (Book Character)/@comment-77.79.252.188-20141208205604/@comment-26917793-20161230022208

On the show they have no redeeming qualities, not after we found out that Fitz approached her knowing perfectly well who she was and was only planning to use her for information about Ali. Maybe he did fall in love with her for real later, but if he hadn't, then he would've just continued to take advantage of her and have no regrets about it. Somebody who's willing to take advantage of people like that (especially minors) is not a good person.

In the books it's a more difficult situation since he sincerely didn't know who she was when they met, and even if I don't approve of student-teacher relationship I understand that it's hard to just shut off feelings. But their relationship in the books was pretty brief and I liked her better with Noel anyway. But I didn't find Fitz and Aria as a couple as bad in the books as I do on the show.
