"Romeo & Juliet" Was Not About True Love

TO BE FAIR WE MISTAKE INFATUATION FOR LOVE ALL THE TIME. EVEN AS ADULTS. WHY THE MOST MISUNDERSTOOD WORK OF LITERATURE OF ALL TIME IS WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S�ROMEO & JULIET. TO THIS DAY, IT IS SPUN INTO SOME SORT OF CAUTIONARY TALE TO PARENTS AND SOCIETY NOT TO STAND IN THE WAY OF TRUE LOVE FOR THEIR RIDICULOUS PREJUDICES! AND WHILE IT IS CERTAINLY THAT, IT IS ALSO AND COMPLETE AND UTTER INDICTMENT OF THE STUPIDITY OF INFATUATION. THEY'RE LIKE TWO FOURTEEN YEAR OLDS WHO LOVE EACH OTHER AT FIRST SIGHT. ROMEO EVEN HAS A HISTORY OF LOVING EVERY GIRL HE MEETS LIKE CRAZY (ROSALINE ANYONE?). AFTER ONE DAY THEY DECIDE TO GET MARRIED, DAMN THE WORLD! AND THEY CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT THIS PERSON THEY MET TWO DAYS AGO SO THEY KILL THEMSELVES. SHAKESPEARE MAKES IT CLEAR, RATHER CONSTANTLY IN FACT, THAT THEIR BEHAVIOR IS ONLY THAT OF INFATUATION AND NOT ACTUAL LOVE. YET BECAUSE OF THE TRAGIC NATURE OF THE STORY WE CLASSIFY IT AS TRUE LOVE ALL THE TIME!

Notes:

It was about the dangers of infatuation.
