Romeo And Juliet Alternate Ending
In the story of Romeo and Juliet, the ending was the couple killing themselves because of misfortune, bad timing and confusion. If I could create an alternate ending this is what it would be like:

When Romeo was informed that Juliet had arrived, instead of going crazy, he went straight to the Friar. While there, he asked what was happening and the Friar explains that he has put Juliet to sleep. Then the three of them head to her tomb to find Paris there. The Friar tells the whole story of Romeo and Juliet to him, which causes Paris to become very sad and runs off to find help. When the Friar and Romeo go into the tomb, they see that Juliet has started waking up. Romeo goes up to Juliet and gives her a quick kiss and the Friar tells them to

    The ending of Romeo & Juliet was not very satisfying in terms of how happy it was. William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet has many moments that could be changed, in order to result in a happier more satisfying ending.

    The day after Romeo and Juliet meet, Romeo goes to Friar Laurence about his desire to marry Juliet. Friar Laurence is suspicious of the relationship between the two young lovers. Friar tells Romeo that “[young men’s] love […] lies not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes” (II.III.68-69). Romeo objects that he does indeed love Juliet and tells Friar that he should be grateful Romeo has buried his love for Rosaline. Foreshadowing occurs when Friar retorts that Romeo “[did not put his love] in a grave, [but made room] to lay [another] in” (II.III.85-86). Obviously, Friar realizes that the fate of the lovers will not be virtuous; however, he goes along to perform the marriage. Shortly after the marriage, Romeo is guilty for killing Tybalt and is banished from Verona. When Juliet’s parents wish for her to marry Paris Friar offers an alternative. Friar suggests to Juliet that if she would “[…] hast the strength of will to kill herself […] (IV.I.73) then she would not have to marry Paris and gives Juliet unknown drugs to make her appear to be dead. Friar has a responsibility to send Friar John to warn Romeo of Juliet’s false death; once again, another let down by Friar Lawrence. Romeo’s man, Balthasar, arrives to Romeo first. Balthasar tells Romeo that “[…] [Juliet’s] body sleeps in Capels’ monument” (V.1.18); creating dramatic irony. The miscommunication on Friar Lawrence’s behalf then contributes to Romeo finding Juliet unconscientious in a tomb; resulting in Romeo’s suicide. Shortly after Juliet awakes she finds that Romeo is dead; naturally, Friar Lawrence…

    Their endings were based on their actions as characters, but fate trumped all of the impetuous actions. It was just their destiny to fall in love and essentially die on the terms of love. Some may argue that free will is the most responsible for their death, however this is not so. Yes, Romeo and Juliet made some impulsive and self oriented decisions that lead them to their death, but there was already a predestined plan for their lives. Throughout the story Shakespeare hinted at the idea of fate, which makes it a stronger point because of how it is emphasized. However, Romeo and Juliet went through so many obstacles to be together in the story because they didn’t care what anyone said or did to stop them. Even though their love was only beginning before it ended abruptly, fate played a major role in it. Fate was most definitely responsible for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet because of foreshadowing, the feud between the Montagues and Capulets and the power of the…
