Choices And Consequences In Shakespeare's Romeo And Juliet

Are Romeo and Juliet truly affectionate towards each other? How would know? Romeo and Juliet is about two “star crossed lovers” that are unable to meet under the circumstances of their parents. Juliet 's family, the Capulets have a strong hate towards Romeo 's family, the Montagues. Juliet is so in love with Romeo that when he finds her mistakenly dead he takes a deadly potion that kills him almost instantly.

The first person to die is Mercutio, who is killed in a fight with Tybalt (Act III Scene I). This is a heartbreaking loss for Romeo, who then proceeds to fight and kill Tybalt as revenge. This leads to the banishment of Romeo, another tragic incident. After Romeo is banished, Juliet and the Friar devise a plan to ensure that Juliet will not be forced to marry Paris (Act IV Scene I), the suitor who Juliet’s parents want her to marry. To take the plan into action, Juliet drinks a potion that makes her appear dead (Act IV Scene III).

Romeo and Juliet is a play about star-crossed lovers. Romeo is apart of a high class Montague family; their rival is the Capulet family. Romeo falls in love with the daughter of Lord Capulet. They want to get married but they know that this will not be approved between their family feud. This is why they secretly ask Friar Laurence to marry them in secret.

Fate cannot be changed Romeo and Juliet is a story of love that was destined for obliteration. They were innocent and fell in love with the wrong person.

The play is about two lovers who only want to be together but are plagued by tragic events and what could’ve been. If the two had made good decisions this story would be a lot different. Romeo is the character most responsible for the tragic events in the play because his and Juliet 's suicide occurred because of his mistakes, by accident he got Mercutio killed his mother also died by his actions, and finally he murdered Tybalt and Paris.

Then Juliet wakes up next to the dead Romeo and kills herself with his dagger. Overall, Romeo and Juliet show love is stronger than hate as they risk their lives just to see each other and eventually die together. Hate may have killed them, but hate is not enough to disrupt their love, they are still together, even when they are dead. Love is stronger because, Romeo risks his life by going into territory he is not allowed in just to talk to Juliet. To add to that Juliet says, “How camest you hither , tell me, and wherfor?

In “Romeo and Juliet”, both of the children are, to an extent, responsible for their own downfall. Romeo, the handsome, intelligent and sensitive young boy, makes very careless and quick decisions before thinking them through. For example, in the beginning of the play, Romeo, without considering the consequences and knowing that Tybalt would be there, uninvitedly attended the party at the house of Capulet's. This was a silly thing for Romeo to do. The Capulet's already don’t get along, yet Romeo didn’t think before he attended.
