Rosaline is the girl that Romeo loved before he met Juliet. She is only in the beginning of the play and she is only mentioned; she doesn't actually say anything. Romeo chooses to go to the Capulet's party because he thinks he will see Rosaline there. Except Rosaline doesn't love Romeo back

Rosaline is the niece of Capulet in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. Although silent and invisible, her role is important: Romeo first sees Juliet after crashing the Capulets' party to catch a glimpse of Rosaline.

Scholars generally contrast Romeo's short-lived love of Rosaline with his later love of Juliet. Romeo's lines about Rosaline are much lamer than those he speaks after meeting Juliet.
