Isn't it like the same thing?

Yeah.... I have read the play, but I'm asking why they prefer death to sepeartion because they say this in numerous scenes of the play before they killed each other. It's foreshadowning, but they don't know they are foreshadowing, so I'm just asking why they rather be dead than separated.

They would be together forever in death- no one could seperate them then. And it would make a statement of their love that no one could deny.

They were hopeless romantics. What's more they were at a dangerous stage of adolescence when everything is in black and white and there are no shades of grey. Juliet was fourteen and Romeo was barely older. Had there been a sensible older person around to talk sense into them, they might have been won round: as it was, they were in that spooky tomb and they felt that life was over for them.

romeo didn't know that juliet faked her death so he killed herself. he'd rather be dead than fall in love with some other girl.
when juliet wakes up from her "sleep", she finds romeo dead beside her. she feels the same, and kills herself.
at least they're together on the death bed and in the afterlife. :)

properly, the montague's and the capulets hated one yet another simply by fact fo an historical 'feud', so while Romeo and Juliet fall in love, they are ind of forbidden to work out one yet another simply by fact the two communities hated one yet another and it might effect in dying for Romeo if he became caught with Juliet. in the event that they weren't enemies they wouldnt ought to marry in secrecy and that they might ahve lived fortunately ever after. additionally, if tybalt and mercucio didnt combat (in the event that they have been friends particularly of enemies) Romeo might have in no way have been given bannished becuase he killed Tybalt, so it all of them werent enemies, Romeo might in no way have been banished. wish this facilitates!

What kind of a sobbing tragedy would it be if they lived....and also their feuding families (Montigues and Capulets) and the audience have to be taught a lesson on the senselessness of unbridled anger and unwarranted hatred, not to mention the lesson to be learned by the priest not to meddle.

I believe to answer this question you must have truly been in love at least once and then be forbidden to ever love again. To the world you may be one person but to one person you may be the world...

they loved each other so much that they couldnt be seperated for so long.And plus they will probably be together after their deaths like in the next world after death.

They were deeply in love with each other and couldn't bear the fact of being apart.

In death, they would be one and together forever in the afterlife. being separated is just not cool.

Don't ask me why, because I think it's stupid, but they love eachother so much that they would rather die than be apart. Once again, I think it's insane.
