How Does Paris Grow In Romeo And Juliet

Developing a crush can be a thrilling experience, and it can be very easy to hastily jump in deep when infatuated with them. In The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, two teenagers from two rival households intensely “fall in love” to the point that they end up sacrificing their lives for each other. Romeo and Juliet are smitten with each other because they are desperate to find love to overcome the negligence caused by their families.

Juliet does not want to forcefully marry Paris because she desires to be freed from her parents’ control, so she falls in love with Romeo. In Act I, Scene III, Lady Capulet tells Juliet that handsome Count Paris is interested in marrying Juliet. She asks Juliet if she is capable of loving him.

She knows that she cannot simply say “no” to her mother due to fear and intimidation. Juliet knows that her parents would forcefully marry her anyways. Before that occurs, Juliet discovers the perfect opportunity to become liberated when she meets Romeo. She realizes that marrying Paris meant her parents define her future, so she decides to build her own life using Romeo.

Romeo wants someone to fill the void his parents created and his past experience with Rosaline. This is first seen in Rosaline and Romeo’s relationship. Romeo is clearly passionate about Rosaline in the beginning, but because she doesn't love him back, he is heartbroken and feels empty and alone again. Later, Romeo quickly spots Juliet at Capulet’s party and is captivated by her beauty and woos her. Romeo is so desperate for someone to love him, he falls in love with Juliet at first sight.
