It sort of depends what the laws of Verona were. Under modern laws she might be prosecuted for counselling bigamy, but not necessarily under the laws they had whenever the play took place (and that is none too clear).

What is the nurse's advice to Juliet and how does Juliet's opinion of the nurse change as a result?

The nurse tells Juliet to "get on with her life" so -to-say. The nurse recommended that Juliet get married to Paris since Romeo had been banished from Verona, and that Juliet would never see him again, so she should move on and forget about him. Juliet's opinion of the nurse changed because she thought that the nurse was on her side, and wanted Juliet to be with romeo, so she felt somewhat "betrayed" when the nurse said this. By saying that it is alright to marry Paris, the nurse is saying that Juliet is not really married to Romeo, that their wedding was a sham and their wedding night a roll in the hay. To Juliet, who considers herself to be Romeo's wife, this is an outrage.

It is Juliet's nurse who interrupts Juliet's and Romeo's conversation on the balcony. She calls Juliet back inside, urging her to come back to her room.


Why does Juliet not admit to the nurse that she has fallen in love with Romeo?

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.


Act 2 scene 4 Romeo and Juliet what waring does she give Romeo?

The nurse says to Romeo: "if you should deal double with her, truly it were an ill thing to be offered to any gentlewoman and very weak dealing." The nurse would like to warn Romeo against trifling with Juliet but she has some difficulty visualizing what the adverse consequences for Romeo might be. The warning therefore falls rather flat.


Who was the person that helped Romeo and Juliet?

Friar Lawrence, a monk, who married them in secret and later provided Juliet with a sleeping potion.


How is the nurse behaving that is frustrating to Juliet in act 2 scene 5?

In Act II Scene 5, the nurse is returning from her meeting with Romeo the morning after the balcony scene. At this meeting she was to discuss with Romeo the question of a wedding for Romeo and Juliet. Juliet is anxious; what a guy might think and say in the dark of the night under the influence of the moonlight might look different in the cold light of day. "At lovers' perjuries, they say, Jove laughs." She wants to know what the nurse has found out. The nurse is two and one half hours late. When she does show up, she talks about everything and anything except what Romeo has said to her. She says her bones ache, she says she is out of breath, she asks if Juliet has had something to eat, she asks where Mrs. Capulet is. And when Juliet starts to lose it from the frustration, the nurse says huffily that if Juliet is going to be that way she can run her own errands! It's a great scene and very funny if played well.


What does the nurse have to do with Romeo and juliet's marriage?

Well the nurse would help them communicate for them by going from one to another and helping them make choices
