My Thoughts on Romeo


             My opinion on Romeo so far is I think he is very dramatic and a player. I think this because, he was going to kill himself over a girl and he thought she was beautiful but, that all changed when he saw Juliet. For example, Romeo said "forswear it, sight. For I ner'er saw true beauty till this night." This shows that he will fall for just any pretty face with out getting to know them first. I do not like Romeo because, he is a player and he thinks he is in love with someone just because their beautiful without getting to know them. So, he judges without getting to know someone first. Also, he is too dramatic because, he thinked he loved this girl Rosaline so much that he would kill himself over her, but he switched his mind when he met Juliet, which makes him too dramatic.

Romeo Character synthesis

To me Romeo is very unique character.  He can literally turn his mind from off and on like a switch he is very unpredictable, for example when he was in love with Rosaline he changed his mind to Juliet in a matter of minutes, “Guest list… My fair niece Rosaline and Livia,  And those who often drowned, could never die… be burnt for liars on fairer than my love”  (Shakespeare 46-48).  Like in the quote he just changes to Juliet as soon as he lays eyes on her.  “Then move not,while my prayer’s effect I take.  Thus from my lips (Romeo to Juliet) Juliet-Then have my lips the sin that they took”(Shakespeare 72).  He is a pretty chill dude but he is no stranger when it comes to love,  I mean he will do anything to hook up with someone he is in love with and i mean any one he will even break someone’s heart for another man of woman he is in love with,  he is very unpredictable as well i mean he almost himself for Rosaline and then he just turn one of his switch on in his brain and said Juliet is the one its like he backs up on what he said.  

CHARACTER ANALYSIS

what i think of romeos character is that he is very dumb and is very confusing. what i think of him is that one day he is in love with one person and if the person refuses to go out with him, he wants to kill his self. then he sees another girl and falls in love with her until he can get with her. i in my opinion is that i dislike him. i dislike him because he does what ever he wants. he like goes to one person then to the other person without caring. that is what i think of romeos character.

My opinion of Romeo 

          Romeo is a crazy young man who gets too emotionally attached to young women. Romeo is a very interesting character. Only does he fall in love easily but he also is very emotionally unattached I say this because he fell in love with Roseline and no less than six hours later her fell head over heals for Juliet. After the party it was he supposed to be at he went and snuck into juilets backyard. He being a Montighue was forbidden because she was a capuliet this just proves that he's not proud of who he is. 

Romeo is a character that lives very much in the moment, he can jump from great depression to being the happiest man alive in an instant. Romeo is a man who can be in grievance but will go for another skirt in a heartbeat. In the novel Romeo and Juliet when they first meet go right for the kiss and don't say a word.

Romeo's Character

Romeo’s character in the beginning of the book is dramatic and depressing because he almost kills himself because cannot get with this girl Rosaline that belongs to the Capulets. Romeo says to Benvolio “The blind man can never forget the inestimable value of his lost eyesight.  Show me a lady who is extremely beautiful: of what significance is her beauty, except to remind me of one who exceeds her in loveliness? Goodbye.  You cannot teach me to forget.” (Romeo and Juliet pg. 41).  He is telling Benvolio that no matter what girl he looks at, it will only remind him of Rosaline and how she is the most beautiful girl to him and that no girl can surpass her beauty.  When Romeo and his friends go to the party, his character changes completely.  When he sees Juliet, he completely snaps out of the depressed and overly dramatic Romeo and switches to a happy and romantic Romeo.  When he lays eyes on her, he is completely in love, “She embellishes night like a rich jewel in a rich Ethiopian’s ear- too beautiful for everyday use, too valuable for this world.” (Romeo and Juliet pg. 69).  Romeo is now completely in love with Juliet, or he thinks he is because this is the first time he has seen her.  My reaction to Romeo is that he is a very complicated and dramatic guy.  He overreacts to failed relationships and he falls in love with pretty much any girl he looks at.  I do not identify with him because the way he acts is completely different from the way I am.  I do not overreact from failed relationships and I am not desperate to find someone to spend my life with.  Romeo is just one complicated person in love.

Romeo and Juliet

I think Romeo (excuse my language) is a man whore.  He’s dramatic, love seeking and willing to die for a false since of love.  Those are the defining features of Romeos character.  “When the devout religion of mine eye maintains such falsehood, then turn tears to fires; and those who, often drowned, could never die, transparent heretics, be burnt for liars. One fairer than my love!  The all seeing sun ne'er saw her match, since first the world begun. (pg. 46)” If I was asked if I like Romeo I would have to say I dislike him over his compassion to kill himself over love and then switches his heart that quick.  I in all honesty think that this is a pathetic to show love and compaction.  If Shakespeare really wanted to make a good romance play he should have had them grow old and die together instead of committing suicide.  That is why I don’t identify Romeo as a real person.  Plus the fact that Romeo would take his life for someone her barley knows makes him a clingy and desperate person over love A.K.A. a man whore (again excuse the language.

opinions on Romeos character

I think that Romeo is just in love with the idea of love. I believe this because in act one scene one Romeo says depressing stuff like he is so sad because Rosaline doesn’t want to get with him and that his life is over but once he saw Juliet he says that he is so in love even though he just saw her. To make my point clearer he goes from one girl to another in like a matter of minutes. For example when he saw Juliet for the first time he says stuff like “oh, torches look dim beside her! She embellishes night like a rich jewel in an Ethiopian’s ear-too beautiful for everyday use, too valuable for this world. She stands out like a snow-white dove among the crows. Once the dance is over, I’ll see where she stands and make my rough hand blessed by toughing hers. Did my heart know real love till now? My eyes need look no further: I hadn’t see true beauty till tonight.” Even though just a few hours ago he was going on about how beautiful Rosaline is.  Another thing is he will do just about anything too keep this love that he so desires, he would even spit on his families name . He expresses this claim when he hears Juliet complain about how she wishes he was not a montague and he said” I don’t like to use my name to tell you who I am. My name, dear saint, is hateful to me because it’s an enemy of yours. If It were written, I’d tear it up.   

My insight of Romeo

In my opinion, Romeo is irrational, sorrowful, and a foolish boy, who doesn't embrace what "love" is until he meets the love of his life; that will eventually send his sanity spiraling downwards. In the book, Romeo and Juliette, it clearly states "Bid a sick man in sadness make his will? A word ill-urged to one that is so ill. In sadness, I do love a woman." (pg.38) This quote was when Romeo was still madly in love- or thought he was madly in love with this girl Rosaline. Though, later on when Romeo goes along to go crash a Capulet party, he sees who he thinks truly is the love of his life; Juliette. In the book it reads, "I'll watch her place of stand, And touching hers, make blessed my rude hand. did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight. For I ne're saw true beauty till this night." (pg. 68 Line 45) Romeo had just seen Juliette at the Capulet Party, and he again believes he is in love; thus proving Romeo is in fact not just , irrational, and sorrowful, he's foolish as well.

Romeo and His Scattered Emotions

Romeo’s character so far is very dramatic because he at the beginning of the book is very dark and sad and ready to kill himself over this girl Rosaline. He says, “Tut I have lost myself, I am not here. This is not Romeo, he’s some other where. This shows how sad he was the Rosaline didn’t love him. He felt out of himself like he wasn’t even living anymore. Then, he just looks at Juliet and immediately forgets about Rosaline and goes full out in love with Juliet and is ready to marry her. My personal thought about Romeo is that I don’t like him because he is too dramatic and stupid basically. He does everything to the full extent without thinking about the consequences and what’s going to happen next. He says, “O blessed, blessed night. I am afeard, being it night, all this is but a dream, too flattering sweet to be substantial”. This shows that he is so in love with her that he thinks he is dreaming because it is too good to be true and earlier in the play he said he would marry her without thinking of what could happen to him by doing so. I do not identify with Romeo at all. I tend to put the least amount possibly into something I do and I always think about the outcome in everything I do because I don’t want to ever be set up to fail. 

   Romeo's Personality

    Romeo’s personality can best be described as him being very emotional, dramatic, and the romantic type. In Romeo and Juliet, Romeo says “Why such is love’s transgression griefs of mine lie heavy in my breast. Love is a smoke made with the fumes of sighs” (Shakespeare, 36).  This shows Romeo being devastated that he is not able to be with Rosaline. Romeo can also be described as being dramatic. Romeo quotes “I have nights cloak to hide me from their eyes and but thou love me let me find me here. My life were better ended by their hate than death prorogued wanting of thy love” (Shakespeare, 88). This provides that Romeo is basically saying he would rather end his life then not being to live without Juliet’s love .Romeo can be considered romantic while speaking to Juliet. Romeo quotes "You enhance this night as an angel seen by astonished mortals. This shows hes very polite to Juliet and generous I like Romeo because he is romantic to Juliet and would do anything to make her happy.  An example of this is when Romeo and Juliet decide that they are going to get married he tries to make arrangements made to make this happen.

Romeo's Personality

                                        Romeo's Personality

 The character, Romeo from the Shakespearean play, Romeo and Juliet is a very interesting character to talk about. Romeo is mysterious, devoted, and a player. But most of all, Romeo is extremely emotional. This boy is very naive, being so young, and falling in love so quickly. In the book on page 86, line 45, Romeos says "Call me but love, and I'll be new baptised: Henceforth I never will be Romeo." In this, He is not saying that he does not like the name "Romeo" but that he would leave his own family and drop his name in order to be with Juliet and be accepted by her family.

character analysis

I think Romeo is passive aggressive I think he's bipolar and quite frankly a very loose guy. He went from one girl to another and a matter of three hours he reminds me of Newt Gingrich.  I like him as a character but I do not respect him as a human being. I suppose I identify with Romeo in the fact that I have fallen in love with two girls and one day in Galveston, Texas. He's not very loyal to his name or routes such as when he said and I quote "call me but love and I'll be new baptized henceforth I'll never be Romeo"

Dustin's opinion on Romeo

Romeo is a very round character. In my opinion Romeo is a very emotional guy. The reason why is because he is about to kill himself for Rosaline because she wouldn’t marry him and she decided to be a nun.  Then he decides not to because he finds Juliet. Romeo is also very selfish because he only wants what is best for himself. For example he would only go to the party because he wanted to see Rosaline, not go because his cousin wanted him to go. Romeo is a very sensitive guy with relationships. He is so sad that he would die because a girl said that she didn’t want to date him.

Character Analysis

Romeo so far in this book is a player. He fell in love with Rosaline then after she rejected him he was heartbroken. After he found that Rosaline was going to the party he went to see her. Once he went he saw Juliet he fall madly in love with her. “I have night’s cloak to hide me from their eyes, and but thou love me, let them find me here. My life were better ended by their hate, than death prorogued, wanting of thy love” (Shakespeare, 88).  This quote is talking about how he is falling madly in love with her. When you read the book you will see how much they love each other and want to get married. If he really does love her then he should show it and mean it, because we all know that he doesn't mean it at all. That's why he is a player and doesn't really feel for her 

Romeo's charecters

 Romeo's Character.

      Well I think Romeo is bipolar, one minute he is depressed about Roseline and just about ready to kill himself and the next he is jolly and happy. He doesn't understand what true love is. As soon as he went to the party and saw Juliet all of a sudden he was back in love, and acting routine. Dramafied , is what you can call him, and I hate those type of characters in texts. You could almost call him a player, just hopping from girl to girl , marrying one in just a couple days, which is outrageous.

Romeo and Juliet Blog Post

In my opinion, Romeo seems to have some issues so far from what I can tell. He has been hopping from girl to girl and saying that he is in love with all of them. Romeo seems to think that every single girl that he likes is the love of his life, and as soon as that relationship ends, he is more than willing too take his life. What he doesn't realize is that love has to be mutual. In a since he is making himself look desperate. When you are as young as he is there is no reason that he should be saying to every girl that he dates within two hours that he loves them. In a way it makes it seem like he is trying to force upon himself  feeling that takes time to develop. Yes there are some occasions in which love at first sight may occur. But every single time he is with someone? No. That is just not how these things work. And there is no reason that he should be in such a horrible case of depression one second, and the minute that he leaves the house and sees Juliet everything  is all better.
