How do you compare Romeo's love for Rosaline at the beginning of Act I to his love for Juliet at the end of the act?
Romeo's love for Rosaline is superficial and conventional. His love for Juliet is real. With Rosaline he is playing the game of the male lover dying of love because the female is refusing him, in the hopes that he will eventually wear her down and get some nookie. With Juliet, he has committed his life to her service, and will act only for her benefit, and if she is dead he will no longer have a reason to live. That's real love.

At the opening of Romeo and Juliet, Benvolio teases Romeo about being in love with Rosaline. Romeo is having no success with Rosaline (and in fact he goes to the Capulet's ball because he believes she will be there).
