Benvolio then suggests Romeo to attend a Capulet gathering where Rosaline will be outmatched by other beautiful girls but Romeo says that his affection for Rosaline will not change. The moment Romeo meets Juliet, his previous lovesick and depression are gone instantly as he quickly falls for Juliet. Romeo thinks of Juliet’s beauty as “I ne’er saw true beauty ‘til this night”, and swiftly makes plans to approach her regardless to the hatred between the two families. On the other hand Juliet is much more consistent throughout the play. At the beginning, Juliet remains not interested in love before and after meeting Paris, an eligible bachelor worthy for her.
Then they meet, fall in love and get married. Romeo is more impulsive and doesn’t think where Juliet is smarter about and thinks about things. But in the end love and fate triumphs and they die for each other causing their ancient family feud to
One was his quick transition of love from Rosaline to Juliet. After Rosaline rejects Romeo, soon afterwards, at the Capulet’s party, Romeo meets only Juliet briefly yet, immediately declares himself in love with her* If Romeo did not have the flaw of falling in love too quickly and deeply, it would have perhaps, prevented the chaos that would have ensured later on in the story when Juliet and got involved with each other. *“Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight! For I ne’er saw true beauty till the night.” ( Act 1 scene 5, lines 52 – 53) Another flaw in Romeo’s character was his unpremeditated thinking.
Hero and the other women do the same thing to Beatrice while she is standing nearby. Beatrice and Benedick are surprised by this rumor and a little offended that they have both been given the label of being too proud for love. This deceptive act drives Beatrice and Benedict mad as they both fight with their own feelings of pride versus love. It causes them to even change their own character a little or perhaps just bring out a side of them that the audience has not seen before. Benedict goes from being a proud bachelor to a love sick puppy and Beatrice goes from being stubborn
In William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet, the two main protagonists are very similar in based of personality traits, but it is also shown that they are still very different individuals and whose characteristics have a bigger impact on the play. Romeo, the son and heir of Montague and Lady Montague, whose actions have escalated the family feud between his family and the Capulets. Romeo was love struck the moment she saw Juliet, that the same day “[they] met, [they] woo’d, and made exchange of vow” (Shakespeare, Act 2 Scene 3 62). In a sudden action of haste, he asked Friar Lawrence “that thou consent to marry us today” (Act 2 Scene 3, 64); all of this because of what he has been feeling ever since he met her. Not only he is impulsive, but he is also devoted.
Also in the play Tybalt was basically asking to be killed because he started with them for no reason. Before Romeo killed Tybalt Lord Capulet actually liked Romeo and Tybalt wanted him to not make him like him anymore and it worked. And now Juliet has to lie to her father about everything and how she wants to marry Paris but she really wants to marry Romeo. So Tybalt basically ruined everything that Juliet wanted. Yes, Romeo does help us see them as complex human beings because it puts together how Tybalt and everyone else in the story and how they are all connected and how they all are different in the
In either case, no-one would have died. Also the Friar’s plan, to save Juliet from a second marriage, was flawed. He didn’t think about it properly and it backfired which directly influenced the death of Romeo and Juliet. The nurse also encouraged the couple to get married. She was Juliet’s confidant and was more of a mother to her than her actual mother.
Alex figured if she thinks im good looking mabey she will love me tonight. And sarah figured if she could avoid love it would go away and all guys were jerks. In the end they both relize there ways of logic towards love were off. So due to those common mistakes many individuals lack the ability to go out and find that special one. They just sit back and watch as another man who will mistreat that girl come in and ruin all hope.
“Romeo and Juliet” is considered by many one of the greatest love stories to have ever been written. However, the tale is not one of love but a story of a young girl whose whims led her to be manipulated by a boy who was seeking out sex. The scene where Romeo and Juliet first meet demonstrates how fickle their infatuation is. The story begins with Romeo wailing over his lost love Rosaline, saying “And, in strong proof of chastity well-armed, from love’s weak childish bow, she lives uncharmed.” He continues his outburst by saying how useless Rosaline is if she is not willing to sleep with him. Benvoilo feels sympathy for the young brokenhearted man and encourages him to go to the Capulet’s party so he will forget the girl.
The plan was for Romeo to rescue her secretly, but the plan is foiled, since Romeo never gets the notice. This plan should have never been made because serious risks are involved. It is evident that Juliet is not thinking clearly because she actually takes the potion. All the possible consequences should have been considered and a back-up plan made. Juliet is willing to do anything for love but it does not mean that it will help.
