Romeo and Juliet are in love or are in lust is something that has been debate over many times. Obsessed, infatuated, out of control and irrational seem to being characteristics of lust, meaning their physical attractions to each other. The pair know near to nothing about each other, saying they are in love is something very bizarre. "Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear. So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows" Act 1 scene 5 line 45. This quotes shows the effect of Juliets beauty has on Romeo. It is showing that Romeo first fell for her beauty instead of her personality. Upon this Romeo still has not had the time to create a sense of Love between the pair, this being why the seem to share lust and not love.
