The life of Romeo and Juliet begins and follows a story of love blooming in this young couple, having nothing separating them from the desire for each other but their family rivalries reaching a new high with murderous intentions toward each other, so they need to fight through the rivery of their families to stay together. But this would soon end with Tybalt murdering Mercutio. Then Romeo, having to be fueled with anger and vengeance, killed Tybalt causing his banishment. Juliet being in the predicament of having to marry Paris without a choice, she goes to the only one who she thought would “help.” As most of everyone reading the story can confidently say most everyone is at fault for the deaths of Romeo and Juliet. However, Friar Lawrence …show more content…
He even thinks that they are taking this marriage way too fast. Friar Lawrence says, “Wisely, and run slow, they stumble who run fast,” (Shakespeare, 2.3.94). This shows that in a sense he does know what actions he is taking. He knows that the actions can be and are dire. The confidence in his decision towards marrying them was not there, so he is going to make the decision to marry them with no one knowing but them.

He leaves her behind for her to go and be by herself. He knows that she is very suicidal without Romeo. “Do thou but call my resolution wise, And with this knife I’ll help it presently,”(shakespeare, 4.1.54-55). But Friar Lawerence leaves her
