About This Quote
Romeo, the love interest of Juliet, is talented in writing plays. He meets Juliet, falls in love with her, and then tells her about his talent. The very next day, Juliet is gone. He meets another woman who is also interested in his talent, but the two women are not happy with him.
To Romeo’s shock, she says that if he really loves her he will follow her wherever she goes. If he doesn’t, she isn’t the woman he wants is she? The idea that you need to do something that makes someone happy to keep them around is a common theme of movies and society as a whole. However, this presents some problems for people who are already happy with their partner.
Why would you want to cause your significant other pain?
