Romeo Monologue

Decent Essays
I been alone for almost two years. When I say alone, that means I haven't dated or became serious with a member of the opposite sex. Yes, this means I haven't had sexual relations with a man either. I am sure your going to ask why. And the reason why is the most valid one of all. I have been single for a total of four years. In those four years, I have become very good at observing a man's facial expressions, tone of voice, and actions. I know what a man wants and what his true intentions are. And, his intentions aren't good to say the least. He isn't wanting to play a friendly game of Scrabble or watch Wheel Of Fortune on the television. Romeo is looking for a roll in the hay or a one night stand. He will tell you anything to get into your pants. …show more content…
A friendly man said hello and could be a new dating prospect on the Plenty of Fish website. We started talking about our careers, family, goals, hobbies, and what we are seeking in life. It seems like we were on the same wavelenght and really clicked. Then he asks me for a fulI body picture and I think nothing of it. Innocently enough, as soon as I share my picture, I automatically became the poster child for a wild night of adult fun. He asked me to come over to his place, we would snuggl together, and he wouldn't touch me? Really? Does a college student with a 4.0 GPA look like she was born yesterday? At least that is what he

    This line said in Juliet's monologue could be interpreted as "Oh, Romeo, Romeo, where is Romeo?" by directly summarizing, but in context in the play, which becomes apparent with analyzing and synthesizing, it's translated to "Oh, Romeo, Romeo, why do you have to be Romeo?" This also evidently proves how the Shakespeare sharpens many skills used by high schoolers on a daily basis, based on how most lines will require them to use and practice these skills when reading the…

    There are many people you could blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, but one might also say the two households are responsible for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. An example of how the capulets play a part in this is when lady capulet says “Marry that ‘marry’ is the very theme I came to talk of. Tell me, daughter Juliet, how stands your disposition to get married”(Line fourteen, Act one Scene three, and Document B), the person one would blame in this quote would be the families(Capulet). This shows Lady Capulet is trying to pressure Juliet into getting married. Even after juliet says that she does not want to get married, her mother keeps pushing her into getting married by asking if she can “like of Paris’ love”( Line twenty four, Act…

    “When we're in love, we tend not to see the bad side of someone. That's the pathetic part of being in love. Sometimes even the worst person in the world can be the best person for your own belief” (Author Unknown). In Romeo and Juliet, the protagonist, Juliet, will agree with this statement, as she was able to overlook the major flaws Romeo has in his unstable personality. Romeo’s impulsive attitude becomes his Achilles heel, which plays a big part in his and Juliet’s tragic death.…

The Friar, who is the archetype sage mentor, uses pathos to try to console Romeo.

    One’s imperfections can become extremely costly to the point where they become dangerous and can lead to one’s downfall. In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, one’s flaw can also be the attribute that helps propel oneself into a downward spiral. Romeo’s personal weaknesses led to tragic consequences because they were a destructive force capable of causing large detriments to his character. This is demonstrated when Romeo’s infatuation with Juliet led him to neglect the value of life, when his instability caused him to over dramatize disappointing situations and when his impulsiveness caused him to misjudge the severity of his actions. Romeo’s infatuation with Juliet led him to neglect the value of life because he felt that having her…

    My Lord, My God, why have you left me to suffer here by myself? All is indeed lost and no sense of redemption can be found. Tybalt is in his grave dead to this day, no trace of recovery can be found by the doctors or the wisest men of the land. This is severely devastating and heartbreaking; words cannot describe what I’m currently going through. Tybalt was a great man, he was the man of the people, he nurtured and took care of me from my infant ages to my maturity stage, I even dare to say that he was the greatest teacher that I have ever had a dialogue within the whole of Verona, even greater than the late Hieronymus Fracastorius.…

    The decision that I found to be particularly hasty was Romeo's decision to commit suicide. I believe that this decision was impulsive and fueled by Romeo's emotions. It lead to not only his death but his lover Juliet as well. If Romeo had been more thoughtful instead of letting his grief and desperate thoughts overwhelm him, he could of created a different ending for the play, one not as tragic. Before Romeo made such a decision, he had been waiting for Friar Lawrence in Mantua to send him news of the uplifting sorts when Balthazar had told him that Juliet had died.…

    Monologue My dear cousin Juliet and I have been close ever since we were children. We were the best of friends; we played dolls when we were children and did each other’s hair when we got older. I will admit that we have not been as close in the past few years, but I cannot believe that this has happened! Her passing makes me feel like I am in a pool of quicksand; every time I attempt to move, the grief wrenches me down deeper and deeper until I can no longer find my way out. Yet I am currently standing here being accused by rumours for her death.…
