Are Romeo and Juliet really in love?
When Romeo thinks of Juliet, however, he is filled with hope and happiness. After he lost everything; his home, his family, his friends, he still looked forward to seeing Juliet and was able to get through his exile. Romeo’s constant talk of Rosaline in the beginning of the play is more of him wanting to be in love than him actually loving her. But when Romeo and Juliet met, everything changed for the both of them. Romeo cast away his superficial thoughts of love and learned what love truly meant, caring for someone. Juliet, a one naive child caring little about love, grew up quickly; doing everything in her power to remain true to her husband. They have been young or carless, but when you die rather than live without somebody, when you give up your family and place in society to be with them, you more than like what they look like~ you love them.
