About the one with Paris? No, not really. She is told in Act 1 that Paris is interested in marrying her, and that she should check him out at the party. Of course she is otherwise engaged with Romeo and doesn't take much notice of Paris. (The Luhrmann film does this rather well.) As for setting the date of the marriage to Paris, Capulet does this without consulting Juliet first, and then is placed in an embarrassing position when it turns out that Juliet does not want to marry Paris after all. As is typical of people who make assumptions about how other people feel and think, he gets mad at her for disproving his assumption.
