Relationship Between Romeo And Juliet

241 Words1 Pages
Every Aristotelian tragic hero has a tragic flaw, Romeo’s being impulsiveness. Throughout the play, he has been known to rush into things too quickly. The first example was getting married to Juliet only a day after they met each other, without the slightest thought that maybe he would get tired of her and change love interests as easily as the one that brought him to Juliet from Rosaline. And later, when he fought with Tybalt, he was blinded by the anger of Mercutio's death to realize that fighting would result in his own death, or as he later found out, banishment. The fight was what set in motion Juliet’s mourning for Romeo, Capulet’s rushed marriage plans, the faking of Juliet’s death, and the very real death of the star-crossed lovers.
