The visions Romeo and Juliet keep having are both related to the idea that one of them dies. Every time one of them have a vision, they completely ignore it and their minds just go to how much they love each other. Shakespeare is trying to emphasize that kids don't look at warning signs and are impulsive.

Both quotes highlight the impulsive decisions they make for each other, as well as the warning signs they ignore.

"All this day an unaccustomed spirit

Lifts me above the ground with cheerful thoughts.

I dreamt my lady came and found me dead

(Strange dream that gives a dead man leave to

think!)

And breathed such life with kisses in my lips

That I revived and was an emperor"

Seeking out Romeo that did split his body

Upon a rapier’s point!

Romeo, Romeo, Romeo! Stay, Tybalt, stay!
Here’s drink. I drink to thee"

Friar thinks that Romeo’s love for Juliet is infatuation and not true love because he moved on from Rosaline so fast. His love for Juliet is quick and sudden and Friar doesn’t believe it will last. He thinks Romeo is just in love with the looks of women and not who they are truly as a person, Friar doesn't want Juliet to be a quick "love" like Rosaline was. Which circles back to the main message that Romeo is swept away by passion and doesn't see that the "love" he feels for Juliet may just be infatuation.

Is Rosaline, whom thou didst love so dear,

So soon forsaken? Young men's love then lies

Not truly in their hearts, but in their eyes"

Prompt:  To what extent does Shakespeare rely on the motif of love vs. infatuation to deliver one of his main messages, and why is this important?

Introductory Paragraph

From movies to television shows, from poetry to music, one thing is for certain--love is almost always in the air.  Yet, love is a concept that should not be oversimplified.  No--there are several aspects to what love is and to what love is not.  Throughout William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the motif of love vs. infatuation is established to help deliver one of the central ideas that love has the power to blind anyone, especially emotional adolescents.  This idea is significant because it emphasizes the point that when people allow themselves to be swept away by passion, they run the risk of ignoring all of the warning signs along the way.
