The concept of fate is shown constantly throughout the play. For example, at the end, Romeo sees Juliet in her tomb, assuming she is dead, however, keeping faithful to his Juliet, he kills himself to be with her in the afterworld, where she wasn’t really dead, till a few seconds later after seeing Romeo dead beside her and kills herself for reals. This leaves the Capulets and Montagues both to mourn for both dead children. This particular example relates to the way the readers are effected is, in the end, makes readers feel sad and upset for the way Romeo and Juliet’s life’s ended up, especially since they were so young. If it had gone another way, like in fairytales, there wouldn’t have been the sad, mournful time. A big misunderstanding
