The effect this has on the audience is that they want to see whether Romeo is caught so overall makes the scene much more intense.
Teenage love is Shakespeare's way of making Romeo and Juliet fall in love so quickly and perhaps is the reason why the play is only four days long. And also that they were being reckless because they were young and never really stopped to think about what they were doing.
Friar Lawrence: "Young men's love then lies
Not truly in their hearts but in their eyes."
This quotation is referring to the way that Romeo is so fixed upon one girl, Rosaline, and then suddenly is in love with Juliet and wants to marry her. It makes the audience contemplate whether Romeo and Juliet were ever truly in love and if Rosaline had ever shown an interest in Romeo would he have felt the same way about her as well. It is also showing the way that even characters, Friar Lawrence, doubted that is was true love.
Paris: "Younger than she are happy mothers."

Capulet: "I will make a desperate tender
Of my child's love: I think she will be ruled

The words "ruled in all aspects" imply that Capulet thinks of his daughter as an object that he can do what he pleases with. This quotation has a massive impact on the outcome of the play, as it is here that he is ordering Juliet to marry Paris, causing her to threaten suicide in front of Friar Lawrence. It shows that Capulet thinks himself to be very dominant and doesn't like to be defied in any way becoming violent and angry when this happens. Shakespeare wanted the audience to realise that Capulet thought this and become more interested in the outcome because of the twist in the plot this quotation leads too.
Throughout the play there are situations which could have had a number of outcomes only by chance and misfortune have events happened which led to the tragedy
Juliet: "My only love sprung from my only hate.
Too early seen unknown, and known too late.
Prodigious birth of love is to me that I must love a loathed
