Who Was To Blame For Romeo And Juliet's Death

Romeo and Juliet both died in odd ways. Romeo had poisoned himself because he assumed that Juliet was dead. He did not receive the letter from Friar Laurence that stated he made a potion for Juliet that would put her to sleep for a few hours. When Juliet wakes up, she sees Romeo on the floor with the bottle of poison. She then finds a dagger and stabs herself on behalf of her love for Romeo. This was a tragic love story which many people were responsible for their deaths.
A lot of people attributed to the death of Romeo and Juliet however they themselves were at fault for committing suicide. They were too young and immature to understand love and because of this they chose death instead of handling the situation differently. They

could have confronted their parents about them being in love and wanting to get married. This goes to show how unready they were and they should be held accountable for their deaths.
The family feud between the Montagues and Capulets also played a role in the cause of their deaths. Both families were not on good terms however that did not stop Romeo and Juliet’s love for each other. This caused for Romeo and Juliet to do everything in secrecy and only the Nurse of Juliet and Friar Laurence knew about the hidden marriage between them. If only the families were not in such dispute, then Romeo and Juliet would not need to hide their marriage in fear of separation.
In my opinion, the person who is at most fault would be Friar Laurence.

He chose to marry Romeo and Juliet with the intentions that the marriage would have a chance to end the family feud. This however backfired in the end. After Romeo was banished for killing Tybalt, Friar Laurence came up with a plan to have Juliet fake her death so she could be in the tomb where Romeo could sneak her out. He then sent a letter to Romeo however he did not receive it in time so he assumed that Juliet had died.Romeo said, “Thus with a kiss I die”-William Shakespeare and then poisons himself from grief. Once Juliet wakes up she sees that Romeo killed himself, she then took the dagger and stabbed herself. They both ended up committing suicide all because of miscommunication from Friar Laurence. According to Friar Laurence, “ For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo”.-William Shakespeare.
In conclusion many people were responsible for their deaths of Romeo and Juliet. Some people were significantly involved than others however one can assume that the intentions were not suppose to lead to death. This was a tragic love story and the people in their lives could have prevented all of it from

happening.
