By Lauren, Ilaria and Laura    JULIET By Lauren, Ilaria and Laura

First impressions Quiet and obedient towards her parents Naïve Mature attitude towards marrying Paris for her mother. “I’ll look to like, if looking liking move” Has no freedom like Romeo to roam freely around the city.

Juliet at the start The relationship between Juliet and her Nurse is extremely strong and this is shown throughout the play. They very close because the nurse has been like a mother to Juliet. It is clear that they are close because the nurse is the only one Juliet tells about Romeo. Juliet is clearly comfortable around the nurse and is at ease talking to her. When her parents were forcing her to marry Paris, she went to the nurse, who said, “I think it best you married with the county…… Romeo’s a dish clout to him.” This is not what Juliet wanted to hear and from this point on their strong bond was gone.

Juliet respects her mother and wants to live up to her expectations, but finds she must rebel in order to keep her marriage to Romeo a secret. Juliet does this to prove she is deeply in love with Romeo. Juliet is motivated by love at first sight with Romeo, and even when she found out that he was a Montague, “ My only love sprung from my only hate”.
