Romeo and Juliet is one of the most intriguing stories you’ll ever hear. Begging with the rival families always having conflict. Or even how Romeo is desperately in love with Rosaline, but she doesn't like him and is planning on being a nun. But during this story the one who leads everything down hill is Romeo.
Firstly how Romeo just crashes Lord.C’s party, this would cause trouble because he meets Juliet there and falls desperately in love with her. “O, then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do. They pray; grant thou, lest faith turn to despair,” (Act I, Scene V, Line 102-103). This was the first down fall in the story, by meeting Juliet. Which was bad because their families were rivals and both would try to kill each other whenever they passed each other.

“We met, we wooed and made exchange of vow, I’ll tell thee as we pass, but this I pray:That thou consent to marry us today,” (Act II, Scene III, Line 62-64). Once again by not telling their parents this would cause more conflict, because their families hated each other so much. Also how suddenly they would have to change and have to try to change each other's families, so they get along.
Lastly Romeo out of range drinking poison because he thought Juliet was dead. “Call this a lightning?—O my love, my wife! Death, that hath sucked the honey of thy breath, Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty,” (Act V, Scene III, Lines 100-102). “Here’s to my love! (drinks the poison) O true apothecary, Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die.” (Act V, Scene III, Lines 129-131). So because he thought Juliet was dead he killed himself. Shortly after Juliet wakes up from her potion she drank and seeing Romeo dead she grabbed a dagger and stabs herself, because she couldn't live without
Romeo and Juliet, written by William Shakespeare, is a story of two young lovers. These two hearts, Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet belong to feuding families. The family feud causes them to keep their love a secret and therefore only Romeo, Juliet, Benvolio, the Nurse and Friar Lawrence know of their love. Romeo and Juliet are able to look past the feud and let themselves fall in mad love with the other. They let themselves do almost anything for the other and at times it seems like too much to do, even for the one they love. Although fate and character traits play a key role in the play, ultimately Rome and Juliet’s personal choices lead to their downfall.Fate originates all of the conflicts in Romeo and Juliet, from when they met until they die.
...se he believes Juliet to dead, drinks poison to take his own life as a last resort. What Romeo is unaware of is that Juliet is very much alive, so it is very ironic when he says, “Death, that has sucked the honey of thy breath,/ Hath had no power yet upon thy beauty:/ Thou art not conquered; beauty’s ensign yet/ Is crimson in thy lips and in thy cheeks,/ And death’s pale flag is not advanced there” (V iii 101-105). This is fate in the works in the play. When Juliet sees that her love has not rescued her and rather is dead, she kills herself with a dagger found in the proximity. “O happy dagger/ This is thy sheath; there rust and let me die” (V iii 182-183).
Romeo and Juliet’s impulsive behavior is strongly influenced by their infatuation and the irresponsible encouragements of their adult figures, ultimately resulting in their tragic downfall. Despite only meeting twice, Romeo and Juliet are extremely attracted to each other, and the emotional factor motivates them to get married. They did not consider the consequences of their actions or ask their parents for their approval of the wedding, instead, they choose to get married in secret due to the grudge. The grudge creates a physical barrier between Romeo and Juliet’s communication and interactions, due to their family’s blind hatred towards each other. Despite the possibility of getting killed, Romeo is willing to cross the Capulet’s gates in hopes of catching a glimpse of
The marriage eventually let to the setting up Juliet's fake death.There was also Benvolio who took Romeo to the party to meet women even though he had just broken up with someone. Lastly, there is Mercutio who caused Romeo banishment by dying in a fight. If none of these problems had occured, then Romeo and Juliet could have had a happy marriage...eventually.
The lack of communication between the young couple killed them. Romeo’s reaction to seeing juliet dead (not actually dead) was to kill himself. “Oh my love! My wife, death that hath sucked” (3.5.141-142) If Romeo and Juliet planned out the rescue of Juliet's body more thoroughly, Romeo would not have killed himself.
On the surface, Romeo & Juliet is a simple tragic love story: boy meets girl, they fall in love, time elapses, things go wrong, and an end is met. But if you ask why was the end met, well there's where you get into the details of the story and the individual aspects of the mostly nondescript characters, in particular Romeo himself. Look into his ridiculously romantic lines, and you'll notice either the flaw in his character, the mistake he made, or the way fate plays with its toys.
Romeo Act V 61-67. Once again, if Romeo wasn’t so irrational and so impulsive before killing himself, he would have thought to at least talk to Friar Lawrence before doing it. If he had talked to the Friar, he would have learnt that Juliet wasn’t really dead and that everything was staged so that they could be together. Unfortunately, because he wasn’t really thinking rationally, he failed to do the things mentioned above and drank the poison a few minutes prior to Juliet’s awakening. When Juliet woke up and realised that their plan didn’t work, she decided to end her life as well so she could be with her loved one for eternity.
...te pilot, now at once run on / The dashing rocks thy seasick, weary bark. / Here’s to my love! / O true apothecary, / Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die.” Romeo says that its miserable be alive while his love is dying. He takes the poison just to die, thinking Juliet’s also dead. This was the poorest choice he has ever made because if he had waited a little longer, then he would have seen that Juliet is alive. Romeo’s impulse got the best of him.

Romeo and Juliet is a romantic love story about a young lad named Romeo who has fallen in love with Lady Juliet, but is unable to marry her because of a long-lasting family feud. The play ends in the death of both these characters and the reunion of the friendship between the families. Romeo is in love with Juliet, and this is a true, passionate love (unlike the love Paris has for her or the love Romeo had for Rosaline) that nothing can overcome, not even the hatred between their two families that is the reason for the death of their two children. Throughout the play, Shakespeare thoroughly explores the themes of both true love and false love and hatred. Without either of these themes, the play would loose its romantic touch and probably would not be as famous as it is today.
