Compare the love that Romeo feels for Juliet to the love that he felt for Rosaline in Romeo and Juliet.

To compare
means noting similarity and difference. In the case of 's different loves forand Rosaline, I
find some surprising similarities.

Romeo may have indeed been driven by two
things for both ladies when all was said and done: physical appearance and attainability.
Rosaline had beauty beyond measure (until Romeo met Juliet), yet she had this feature that made
her unattainable, she wanted to be a nun. Thus, dating and sex were not an option for her. This
usually makes a girl less attractive. I almost wonder...
