No matter where or who you are you have a tragic flaw. Everyone has a tragic flaw, it could be someone litte or something huge that affects everything you do. In Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Romeo’s causes the most issue in the story. All the characters partake in Romeo’s flaw; to not thinks before they take action.

After this Tybalt send a letter requesting to fight Romeo, but Mercutio steps to to fight the battle. This is a very bad and rational decision by Mercutio. He knows how good of a fighter Tybalt is but still wants to fight him because of how much hatred there is between the two families. They meet in the middle of town. A chaotic environment. Tybalt tries to fight Romeo but Mercutio does not let him. He begins teasing him “[to Tybalt] Tybalt you ratcatcher will you walk?” -Mercutio (act 3,sc.1,76), thus making it an even worse situation for Mercutio and Romeo.
