Whirlwind Of Emotions In Shakespeare's Romeo And Juliet

The Shakespearean play, Romeo and Juliet causes a whirlwind of emotions. At the beginning of the play, A fight breaks out between the Montague family and the Capulet family.

When he wanted to get married, “the exchange of thy love’s faithful vow for mine” (2.2.127) is what he said.

I will hence tonight.” (5.1.26-27) using all of these examples of why Romeo is to blame, I think he could not control his emotions, was very quick at deciding to marry Juliet, and snuck into the Capulet party without an
