Falling In Love In Romeo And Juliet

Moreover, Romeo through his infatuation with Rosaline learned valuable lessons that help him come to appreciate and understand the feelings he experiences with Juliet. Romeo felt rejection, sorrow, and misery from his infatuation with Rosaline which is seen when he is talking to Benvolio, “In sadness, cousin, I do love a woman” this particular quote shows the sadness or sorrow he feels from the feelings for Rosaline (1.1.201). Also when he says “She hath forsworn to love”, the words Romeo speaks allow it to be inferred that his feelings for her have been rejected (1.1.220). “At the opening of the play [Romeo] is maundering about like an erotic woman novelist, sighing and groaning because Rosaline will not listen to his tenders of affection” revealing that Romeo’s love was rejected and was upset because of this, allowing him to learn these feelings and what it is like to be rejected by the one he had feelings for (Northwood 19). Due to having felt these emotions from his infatuation, when he finds his love for Juliet and receives love and acceptance from her. Since he went so long, feeling sorrow and rejection when he finally finds Juliet, he can fully appreciate the love and acceptance he is given which intensifies his love for her and does the opposite of weakening the credibility of his love. Through his infatuation with Rosaline, he was able to grow as a person and become able to fully commit to his love for Juliet.

Teenage crushes are explored through the middle school and high school years. The two most important crushes are romantic and identity. Most of these crushes are seen as jokes by parents. However, experiencing these types of crushes ultimately lead to the discovery of one's true identity. Shakespeare uses romantic and identity crushes to show how parents need to take teenage crushes more serious.

What is love? Is it an object? Is it a feeling? Is it even attainable? Love is everything, it is an object, it is an emotion, and it cannot be bought, stolen, given. Love can only be found. Love is discovered in the most unthinkable places during the most unimaginable times. It can never be predicted who you fall in love with or when you do but all you do know is that you are in love and you would give anything for that person, and for your love to always stay resilient through all other obstacles and distractions. In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Montague’s and Capulet’s are know and expected to hate each other until the miracle of love presented its self. Romeo is a Montague and Juliet is a Capulet. They both fell in love when

Budding Love… Cut at the Stem Love is what grows off of infatuation though a basic of time in which infatuation can grow, this is the reason why in the play Romeo and Juliet, their relationship is not of love, rather infatuation. This is shown through the short time frame of their ‘love’, the star-crossed love nature, and how their relationship is mostly physical. Infatuation only takes moments to develop, however true love and trust takes years to accomplish. In the play, Romeo and Juliet meet at a party and begin their secret love affair. A mere one day later, they get married, “Come, come with me, and we will make short work./For, by your leaves, you shall not stay alone/ Till holy church incorporate two in one.”

The teenagers can have romantic crushes or identity crushes, but in this article I am going to speak about the romantic crushes. One article called Adolescence and the Teenage Crush talks about how important it is to the teenagers to have their parents near when they have their first crush, Romeo and Juliet is a example of that.

The read about, “love” story, Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare, had meaning of words that could actually be taken differently, by dissecting the background. To have the feeling of being infatuated, is an intense passion felt in a short moment of time. It's not a long lasting feeling; real love runs much deeper than infatuation. At such a young age, Romeo and Juliet had not known the true understanding of love. Real love, is a genuine admiration for a person's qualities and character traits.

Romeo and Juliet had not a full-hearted romance, but infatuation from the looks of it. They both were in points of their lives where they felt trapped and had to get out. When they met each other, they both liked each other and they thought that if someone out there liked them that maybe they could take them away from problems and family life. That is what these two people believed would happen. It wasn't real love, they just thought it was. The saying ¨you want it more when you can't have it¨ applies perfectly here. They started to become more infatuated with each other when they realized their families were enemies, that is when the idea of marrying each other came up. This story is famous because its very well written but also pokes fun

In William Shakespeare’s tragedy Romeo and Juliet, the two lovers experience misfortune all caused by their lust and hastiness. The play talks about the two star crossed lovers trying to have their love blossom into something beautiful. Even though the lovers are around age thirteen and completely grasp the concept of love in relationships. Romeo and Juliet meet at the Capulet party, after that moment they are inseparable. Like all long lasting relationships, the lovers bump into each other and the next day they are married. From the start the lovers have opposition, whether that be from their families or their impatient nature. Romeo and Juliet claim to be in love, even though Romeo yearned to be with Rosaline, Juliet and Romeo only recently met, and they both jump to conclusions.

William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is based on a story of a quarrel between the Montagues and Capulets who disrupted the city of Verona causing the fate of the ‘two star crossed lovers’ to bring a gloomy peace. Romeo’s monologue in Act II scene II - one of the most famous scenes in all of Shakespeare’s play - illustrates one of the most significant themes of the play, love. Shakespeare conveys the theme of love through the use of a variety of literary techniques such as rhetorical questions, metaphors and imagery to display the theme of love within the play.

Romeo and Juliet have a star-crossed relationship. The love story of the two characters for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet have a tragic ending and we see just how strong their passion that turned into love for each other was. Although, when Romeo and Juliet first met it was pure infatuation, they tuned into a relationship, and then were in love. Infatuation is more of liking the idea of being in love. They develop a relationship, and by the end of the play they are truly in love.

When I read the tragedy Romeo and Juliet, I thought that it had quite the dark ending. However, I also thought that we could learn from this extreme case of what grudges do to people. It hardens their hearts and makes them think that “This will hurt them,” even though that it really hurts themselves in the process. Since the Capulets (Juliet’s family) and the Montagues (Romeo’s family) had both taken part of an ancient feud against each other, Romeo and Juliet’s love for each other is not at all accepted by their families, which causes problems with their marriage. If The Capulets and Montagues put their differences aside, the entire book would have been totally different. In many areas we can learn so much from Romeo and Juliet, as well as the other characters in the book, especially with how many of them seem to not think through most of their choices before committing or going through with something. My ultimate goal in this essay is showing how being a teenager can be a difficult journey, but thinking through things and not letting your emotions get the best of you can and will greatly help your life. To achieve my goal, I have properly organized my paper into four sections going over three topics. In my first topic I will go over Romeo and Juliet’s mutual love and immediate marriage, and what went wrong, why it was wrong, and how it could have been prevented. In the following section, I discuss the topic of Romeo’s violent tendencies and why it was wrong; along with

Juliet’s lust for power ( That's a very interesting idea. I only thought she had the boy-girl kind of lust. ) was destined to destroy her relations with Romeo.  Capulet forces (betroths) Juliet to marry Count Paris, a man she does not love.  When she refuses to marry him, Capulet threatens his daughter and says, “…get thee to church o' Thursday, or never after look me in the face”. This causes Juliet to take her own actions against his (her?)  father’s will. She does not want to marry Paris and so she begins to manipulate those close to her in order to get what she wants. To Friar Lawrence she says to him, “I long to die if what thous speakest speak not of remedy”. However by doing so she

Romeo and Juliet learn to put anything after their love, because love for these two was always put before anything. Love in this story makes a lot of feud between both Romeo’s family and Juliet’s family, but their family’s feud didn’t stop them from loving each other. At the end of the story Romeo and Juliet's love for each other is what stops their families hate and feud towards each other.

In this report, I will be analyzing how affection is shown towards Juliet in the capulet home. I feel this is an important topic because it show literary elements such as mood, tone, etc.

Shakespeare’s depiction of young love between star crossed lovers, left the entire world speechless. The play, Romeo and Juliet, gave people an opportunity to follow a blossoming love that left poor Romeo and Juliet in a daze. The thought of not being able to live out the rest of their lives together left their young minds with more than they could comprehend. With confusion the young pair defied fate and took their own lives hoping to reunite in heaven. We were able to see many of Romeo’s character traits throughout these scenes. Leaving us to believe he exhibits unfathomable amounts of passion, impulse behavior, and bravery.
