Rash Romeo

I am currently reading the play Romeo and Juliet. Some people may think that Romeo is in love with Juliet. Also that the decisions that he so quickly made some people may find sweet and some people may think that he is truly in love and it is love at first sight. I disagree. I believe that Romeo is just a teenager who laid eyes on a pretty girl and is claiming he is in love with her but he isn't. He is making decisions way too quickly. Also the night hat Romeo "fell in love with Juliet" he was originally  looking for another girl named Roseline.

Romeo is making decisions and thoughts on Juliet too quickly. He plans on marrying her only a couple days after they met. When couples meet they date for a couple of years not for a couple of days. He barely knows her personality. All he knows is that she is a Capulet. The Capulets are the enemy's of the Montagues which is Romeo's family. Not only is he going against his family but he is going against his faith and beliefs. He is willing to kill himself for Juliet and I think that he is going a bit too fast.

Romeo cried and was completely depressed over a girl named Roseline. He was head over heels in love with her so his cousin Benvolio wants to bring him to a party that he knows she will be at. When they get there they search all around for Roseline and Romeo takes one look at Juliet and immediately just forgets about the girl he was crying about just a few hours before this. He is moving on way too quickly. What would happen if Roseline comes back and just decides that she does love Romeo? Would Romeo just leave Juliet? I'm not positive that Romeos love is true for Juliet.

In conclusion, I believe that Romeo is just a teenager who is a hopeless romantic. He is 13 years old and rushing into marriage and love. He is too young to commit to being married. He doesn't know what marriage truly is. I'm not sure if a 14 year old is ready to fully make the decision to spend the rest of their life with a girl he has known for a couple days. What do you guys think? Is Romeo really in love? Or do you agree that he is just being a rash teenager? Comment below! Thanks!
