Romeo think he in love with Juliet after seeing her for the first time, even though he know Juliet a Capulet which he learns from the nurse. “O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name.” ( Act II scene 2 line number 35) Juliet know that he is a montage but still pursues a relationship with him regardless.

Romeo and Juliet had to go through terribly sad deaths, and I think it’s both of their faults, and their families, of course. Even though I think it was both of their faults, I think Romeo should be blamed most. The first reason I blame Romeo is because he is the one who went to the Capulet’s party.

If Romeo didn’t go, they wouldn’t have met, wouldn’t have fell in love, and would go on with their lives. “That I will show you shining at the feast, And she shall scant show well that now
