         Romeo shows youthful, rash behavior 2.6.7-8  " Then love - devouring death do what he dare , it is enough I may call her mine".  He's willing to love Juliet even if it means death and he shall do what he needs to do whatever it takes till he makes her his.Since Romeo went to Friar Lawrence who was surprised  to have seen Romeo  forget about Rosaline the girl he first fell in love with before Juliet Friar Lawrence's reaction was " Holy Saint Francis , what a change is here ! Is Rosaline , that thou didst love so dear so soon forgotten ? ". Shows how quickly he's forgotten about Rosaline and on to Juliet. 2.3. 69 -70. Romeo's youthful, rash behavior also shows in 2.3 61-62 " plainly know my heart's dear love is set on the fair daughter of rich capulet". Which shows he has a determined heart which is set on Juliet while he is a Montague.
  
             Romeo shows true love in 2.6.  3-5 " Come what sorrow can , it cannot countervail the exchange of joy that one short minute gives me in her sight ". Flashback to when Romeo and Juliet first looked at each other and what he first saw in her sight for one short minute was joy. " Young men's love then lies not truly in their hearts , but in their eyes". 2.3  71-72 he couldn't stop looking at Juliet the night of the party and from that moment on it was love at first sight.  " Her I love now doth grace for grace and love for love allow.The other did not so " shows that he loves her starting now and love is love that was meant to be allowed.


" Unfold the imagined happiness that both receive in either by this dear encounter " They both wished that they could have another place or time and their stuck in a moment that started with Romeo and Juliet having love at first sight when they looked into each other's eyes and realized it was true love they'd have to fight for and his youthful , rash behavior was just a start to unfolding the imagined happiness by this dear encounter that made them wish. " These violent delights have violent ends and in their triumph die ... Therefore , moderately".  It's all fun and games till someone gets hurt but people ended up dying Mercutio, Tybalt , and lastly Romeo and Juliet.
