Question

Why where romeo and juliet doomed?


thanks for all help

Answer 1

I say because they had a love they knew that could never reveal. Their families would never except it, nor would they have ever had said something. I feel that it's almost worse to be in love that much and not be able to tell anybody, almost makes it not real.

Answer 2

Romeo and Juliet were doomed not only because their families were holding onto a grudge against each other that was centuries old, but because the two families were too proud. Neither would make the move to mend their relationship. Also, Romeo and Juliet were too full of passion, not just in love but everything. Romeo had loved before and felt, when it ended, that he would die without her. Then he met Juliet. Both were children and felt every emotion to the extreme. The priest sums it up best by telling the two to love moderately. What got them killed was basically because they loved too much.

Answer 3

The reason for the doomed love of Romeo and Juliet resides in the two noble families of Verona, the Capulets and the Montagues, whot have feuded for generations. When the children of each of these families fall in love, it is not acceptable to either family

Answer 4

because either Romeo drank poison and when Juliet saw that he was dead, she kissed him. But when she kissed him, she saw that he still had poison on his lips and when they kissed for the last time, she died too. Or, because Juliet's and Romeo's parents did not like each other and when they heard that their children loved each other, they were furious and forbid them to ever see each other again.

Answer 5

Because it was a drama and Shakespeare wrote it that way.....really that's what I think. I always wondered why they just did not leave and move to...Germany for all I care.

You could say that they were doomed because of the time-spirit, honor in the family was a killer.
