I've always wondered why people viewed R&J as the epitome of every romance story. (Mini rant ahead http://images.wikia.com/piratesonline/images/e/e8/Rant_emote.gif)

If I recall properly, Romeo was "in love" with someone else (Rosaline, I think her name is? I don't care enough to look it up lol), but stopped liking her because she wouldn't "put out" (I think I remember reading that she has sworn herself to a life of chastity). I disliked reading this in 9th grade because I thought (and still feel) like this whole play was based off of lust, not "love", and they are both idiots for killing themselves over someone they haven't even known for a week. If someone ever said that my boyfriend and I are like Romeo and Juliet, I'd be thoroughly disgusted and offended, lol.

I know that it's not really related to the actual discussion, but whatever. http://images.wikia.com/central/images/9/99/Shrug.gif
