In the play "Romeo And Juliet" by William Shakespeare, the
author shows us two different types of love - infatuation and lasting love. The trouble
is that the love that Romeo and Juliet hope will be true lasting love is bitterly cut
short before it has ever a chance of proving itself . We are all left guessing.
Christian wedding vows lean heavily towards lifelong commitment to a future together,
for better or for worse so presumably Romeo and Juliet were reasonably sure of a desire
to keep to that or they would not have made them. They may have promised "til death us
do part" and that bit was certainly true - although their short love did not have time
to be tested by other attractions or rows. I think they both kept to the "love,
honour,obey" part by their commitment to the Friar's daring
plan.
