He also failed to deliver the letter to Romeo saying that Romeo didn’t die, but she was in fact sleeping. “I could not send it here it is again nor get a messenger to bring it thee so fearful were they of infection” (Shakespeare 470). Lastly the Friar had blamed the two lover's death of Romeo and Juliet when both the Capulet's and Montague's had heard of there passings.…
Blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet can be pointed in several different directions. Not only characters were accountable for the calamity. Three main non-human contributors to the tragedy were fate, impulsiveness, and time. Fate played a part in Romeo's banishment from Mantua.

Juliet is impatient and talks to herself in which she doesn't know what's going on and disobeys. As much as Romeo and Laurence causes problems, Juliet does more as being stubborn.…
As the New York Times bestselling author Maria V. Snyder once said, “Trusting is hard. Knowing who to trust, even harder.” Often we misjudged people, and sometimes we place our trust in the wrong person. It is all to easy too place your trust in someone and have them lead you astray. This is true for the title characters in William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The young couple trusted Romeo’s confessor, Friar Lawrence, but it ended up being that trust that got them in trouble. Friar Lawrence, who was constantly giving them bad advice, didn't think his plans through, and didn't always put the couple’s well being first, and married them, is the individual most responsible for the tragic deaths of Romeo…

Romeo and Juliet is a tragic story of two young lovers doomed from the beginning. In this tragic tale, the parents of the two teenagers are usually assumed to be the most at fault for what occurred within those few days.
