Jane Austen: and here we have the love interest. He might have some issues, but once you get to know him, he's a great guy. Good looking, heart of gold, the works.
Charlotte Brontë: get ready for the weirdest man you have ever met.

when mr. rochester dressed in drag as an old fortune teller and elaborately pranked an entire party partly to get jane’s attention… when mr. rochester wrote, composed, and performed an entire song for jane eyre on the spot… when mr. rochester took in his former sugar baby’s bastard child despite her presence being a painful reminder to him of her mother, and then claimed not to love the child despite spoiling her with gifts… when mr. rochester sacrificed his life trying to save his wife even though she tried to kill him multiple times and he still refused to put her in ferndean manor because he didn’t think it was good enough for her (making it meaningful that he ends up living there himself when he’s disabled, showing he prized himself less than her)… when mr. rochester took jane out for an extravagant all-day shopping trip and was way more enthusiastic about it than her… when mr. rochester shared a god-given telepathic connection with jane which induced them to reunite… when mr. rochester decided to wear the pearl necklace he originally bought for jane for forever… when mr. rochester made up a story for little adèle about jane being an elf magically sent to him from the moon… when mr. rochester pulled jane onto his horse… when mr. rochester…

You once mentioned in one of your old asks that Frank Churchill a lot like Rochester? How so?
Did I? I cannot locate it.
Anyway, they are similar in one big way: they really enjoy preformative secret keeping. They can't help themselves; they must have elaborate schemes. They must dress as a fortune teller or encourage a wild rumour about Mr. Dixon when it would have been better to just keep their dramatic stupid mouth shut.
They also both marry women who are brought up to be governesses and they enjoy being the life of a party. Oh! They both are proficient in and enjoy music. They also both really want to buy expensive gifts for their fiances that their fiance has ambiguous feelings about.
Many similarities now that I think of it.

I wish I had literature friends. I'm puzzling over the idea of a Byronic Antihero, with my example being Mr. De Winters from Rebecca. I'm not well read enough to come up with another example, or to well define what precisely a Byronic Antihero would be.
