While Romeo and Juliet never doubt the power of love, other characters criticize love and reject is as simply…

Their families are another thing. Their love was probably based on lust, but, when they found out that their families were sworn enemies, that probably fueled them forward. There's nothing like forbidden fruit, right? Juliet was also possibly looking for a way out of her arranged marriage, and marrying Romeo was a perfect way out of her family. For Romeo, he was just trying to get over that other girl. He was being pretty emotional, and probably wasn't really being himself. He was just looking for some kind of replacement. The thig about Romeo and Juliet is that the duo is old enough to think they know everything but young enough to not know anything. They are so cauht up in the moment that they can't see what's right and what's wrong, and so, they end up killing themselves for the other.…
Second, Romeo and Juliet are supposed to be very young. Romeo is seventeen or eighteen while Juliet is only thirteen. Their feelings are hormone-driven. Romeo decided he was in love with Juliet, just from her looks, before they even speak to each other. They are so young and haven’t met enough people to know who their “soul-mate” is. Many adults don’t even know exactly what they’re looking for in love. Why should they rush into things with one person when they have their adult lives ahead of them to decide whom they want to be with?…

Another one of Juliet’s childish choices that she made was when she decided to get married to Romeo. Juliet was the one who brought up getting married in the first place because she wanted to make sure their love was real. This was stupid and irresponsible for many reasons. For one, she just met the boy. She hardly knows anything about him except for the fact that he is a Montague and she is a Capulet. They are both from feuding families, so they should have realized that unfortunately their relationship wasn’t going to work out right away. On page 20 it states, “Two households, both alike in dignity… From ancient grudge break to new mutiny…” Romeo and Juliet were both from two well-known families that have been feuding with each other since anyone could ever remember.…
