She's a difficult character for me to consider, especially from Ross's point of view. On the one hand, she needs to be someone for whom he at one time would have felt lust and desire and a naive simulation of young love. On the other, she represents everything that he doesn't like about himself, and all of his fear for the future. I don't want to slight her; I don't want to make her a caricature...but I don't think this is yet the time for her to become real and rounded, for him.
Plus, the guys - especially Neville - tend to protect him, still. Perhaps that's something to consider as this conflict builds....
