      In Romeos Character Throughout The Play

In this essay I will be writing about the events that have affected Romeos character. Romeo is one of the two main characters in this essay. Romeo is a Montague, but the other main character in the essay is Juliet, and she is a Capulet. We first see Romeos character developing during the early stages of the play, and quiet dramatically. When Romeo meets Juliet, it is as if he changes from the little boy that he was, to a Man. At the beginning to the play, you see the boy side of him, the immature, childish side and thinking that he is in love with a girls, but really he isn’t his making himself feel this way, as he has been declined his love as the girl called Rosaline isn’t interested, and is just an obsession by Romeo. And throughout the play he becomes more mature and begins to understand love.

        Romeo wasn’t at yet another brawl in town, against the Capulets and the Montagus. But his mother is worried for him “where is Romeo, saw you him today. Right glad I’m he was not at this fray.” This obviously shows that she is concerned for his welfare, but as we know Romeo was not hurt. Benvolio, Romeos best friend is concerned for him as well as Romeos parents, for him as he has been acting of “Strange manner” lately, and this is because of Rosaline. As we know Romeo isn’t very experienced in love, and this is affecting his concerning family and friends. But they are kept in the dark of his feelings for her. This is the first stage that we see Romeo at the throughout the play more changes in his character will become apparent. As a good friend Benolio wonders what is wrong with Romeo and is asked by his parents to find out, to me this shows that there isn’t very good communication between the parents and Romeo, and having to get someone else to do there work for them like this, is there only way on connecting with there son.

When they meet, benvolio is struck with Romeos, glum expression upon his face, and as you may do you would ask what is wrong, but benvolio is also doing it for Romeos parents.  Benvolio starts their convocation with,

“Good morrow cousin”, and the reply form Romeo is “Is the day so young?” form this you can tell that he is not happy and there is something wrong. But benvolio thinks he might know what wrong, but nothing said as he wouldn’t want to cause any trouble between them.

“But new struck nine” says benolio, this meaning it’s nine o’clock ...
