Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet         We just finished reading the play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. In this play we are introduced to the tragic story of their forbidden 'love' which ultimately leads to their deaths. Although Romeo and Juliet is considered to be a timeless love story, I find Romeo to be too immature for this to be so.         When we are first introduced to Romeo, he is involved with a girl by the name …

…immense caring for another which is acquired over time. Infatuation, is an immediate sexual attraction to another person that can turn into love, if given the time. So in the end, Romeo's hasty actions were due to his infatuation with Juliet, not his love for her. This is evident because he didn't have any time to find out who she was on the inside, all he had to base his actions on, was her looks.
