    Romeo and Juliet begins with the love of revenge, if that's a love.  The Capulet and Montague servants and households cannot wait for their enemies to bait them toward violence.

    i wrote an essay related to this topic. it starts like this.

    Some people think that Romeo and Juliet died because their relationship was doomed from the beginning. This, far from false, is not the most important reason why they died; they were more apt to die as tragic heroes because of the type of lovers they were. The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is a play written by William Shakespeare that takes place in Verona, where a pair of star-crossed lovers take their own life because the obstacles of fate do not allow them to be together. In other words, Romeo and Juliet died in a tragedy, because they were Maniac and Erotic lovers respectively.
