even though romeo and Juliet succeed to open their father eyes, i don't think they win since they gave up their life. It has to be other way than die together. In my opinion in Romeo and Juliet no one win

From a modern perspective, Romeo and Juliet did not win, because they died. However, from a romantic standpoint they did. Their goal was to be together, over the objections of their families and their deaths did accomplish this, binding them together for all eternity. Taking the long view, they also won because their deaths united their households, albeit in grief and mourning. Lastly, their deaths immortalized them, and the names 'Romeo and Juliet' are now a linguistic shorthand for the ultimate romance (though now we use it to connote any youthful or passionate love, not simply one that is doomed).

No they didn't win. They didn't mean to kill themselves to be togther it was a mistake (on Romeos part) then juliet followed him.

Depends on how you see it. The couple wanted to be together but the families were against it. Both killed themselves assuming they'd be together in the afterlife. The families lost because of the deaths. The couple may have lost if afterwards they both went different vertical directions.

no, in fact, they both lost
juliet took a poison that would make her seem dead, but she'd awake and then find her Romeo. Unfortunately, Romeo found her, thought she was dead, and took a poison which killed him. She wakes up and find romeo dead, so she takes his dagger and kills herself

Technically they did "win" and then again not. They showed the Capulets and the Montagues that fighting needed to stop. Unfortunately for the two rival families it took their children's deaths for them to realize it.

I don't think I would consider dying as Winning!
He finds here and thinks she is dead and so drinks poison and she wakes up to find him dying and stabs herself with his dagger.
