Act II of Romeo and Juliet is all about how their love deepens and they decide to marry, ending with the wedding itself. The Nurse, in this Act, is a facilitator and go-between, carrying messages from Romeo to Juliet and paving the way for their marriage. She also warns Romeo that he had better be sincere, since she doesn't want her Juliet to be hurt by him. She also teases Juliet by withholding Romeo's message from her although it is clear that Juliet is desperate to hear it.
