Paris believes that Juliet is simply too grief-stricken over the recent death of Tybalt to properly acknowledge her feelings for him. He thinks she needs time to mourn and that her silence is a result of her sadness.
In Act 1, Scene 2, Paris believes that Juliet is being shy and modest in confessing her love to him. He thinks that she is simply being coy and that she will eventually admit her feelings for him.
Evasively. She is trying to be polite but does not want to admit that she will marry Paris, since she has no intention of doing so.
Romeo promises he will put Paris' body in the crypt beside Juliet after he dies.
But she does, just not onstage. The nurse would not be able to take her message to Romeo in Act II Scene 4, nor have any reason to warn Romeo not to lead Juliet into a "fool's paradise" or "deal double" with her if she didn't know how Juliet cared for Romeo. Nor would she tease Juliet in Scene 5 by withholding Romeo's plan to marry her if she didn't know how desperately Juliet was waiting to hear just this news.
It is Capulet who mostly gives this assurance. He appears to like Paris, who has good qualifications to be a husband. He is hurrying the process becasue he believes it will cheer Juliet up. Then, once he is proven wrong, his pride will not allow him to admit it; he gets mad at Juliet instead.
In William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," Lord Capulet admits his part in the tragedy when he realizes the consequences of forcing Juliet to marry Paris against her will. He acknowledges that his actions contributed to the chain of events that led to the deaths of Romeo and Juliet.
Lord Capulet believes that Juliet is very upset over the death of her cousin Tybalt and decides to cheer her up by marrying her. However, this just upsets her more because Juliet was actually upset that Romeo had been banished. Now, she'll never see the person she loves and instead has to marry somebody else.
She didn't know he was listening.

He also knows that Juliet does not want to marry Paris and is being forced into the marriage, which is also a crime. However he does not want to have to admit that he has already married her to someone other than Paris, since it would bring the wrath of Capulet down on him.

Juliet's entire conversation with Paris in Act 4 Scene 1 is ambiguous. Paris greets her as his wife and she says "That may be, sir, when I may be a wife." It looks like she is saying that he should not call her wife until after the wedding, but what she means is that she will never be his wife. Paris says that she must be his wife on Thursday, and she says "What must be, shall be." Paris might get the impression that she is agreeing with him, but she is not. She is only saying that what will happen will happen, which might be anything. That's pretty obvious, a "certain text" as the Friar says. She continues equivocating while Paris tries to get her to admit that she loves him. She finally says, "If I do so, it will be of more price, being spoke behind your back than to your face." Paris is satisfied, but he shouldn't be, because all this hinges on the phrase "If I do so". And she won't
