Romeo does not want to fight Tybalt because he has just married Tybalt's cousin Juliet. So this means they are related and Romeo does not want to harm him. Also to start a fight with a Capulet (because Romeo is a Montague) would have Romeo banished. Romeo does not want to be banished or upset his wife, Juliet, by killing her cousin.

∙ 10y agoThey are from feuding families. Romeo crashed a party at Tybalt's uncle's house and Tybalt decided to take that as an insult to the Capulets. His uncle, Juliet's father, who unlike Tybalt is a real Capulet, told Tybalt not to be an idiot and to lay off Romeo who was behaving himself at the party and having a good time. Tybalt, unconvinced, then sent a letter to Romeo's house challenging him to a duel and wandered the streets of Verona trying to find him so they could fight.

∙ 13y agoFirst of all, he sends a rude letter to Romeo's house to challenge him. When that doesn't work, he prowls the streets looking for Romeo, and when he finds him he hits him what he thinks is a cutting insult: "Thou art a villain". This is an insult not only because a villain is a serf or slave labourer, but Tybalt also uses the form "thou" which implies that Romeo is an inferior. It's a pretty lame insult, but then Tybalt is a goon more known for his passado and punto reverso than for the mixture of straw, sawdust and manure that passes for his brain.

Prince Escalus banned fighting in Verona and enforced the punishment of death. Mercutio and Tybalt were fighting and Romeo came in between them to try and stop them.

Prince Escalus found out but did not sentence Romeo to death because he knew Romeo had good intentions and Mercutio was related to the Prince; instead he banished Romeo to Mantua where he would live forever.
Why wouldn't Capulet let Tybalt attack romeo at the ball?

Who is more peaceful Benvolio or Romeo?
Both of them try to stop fights. Benvolio never starts any fights and counsels Mercutio to get out of the way of the Capulets if they are looking for trouble. Although Romeo also tries to avoid them most of the time, he does start one and only one fight, the fight in which Tybalt is killed. Benvolio says he would have stopped that one too but he didn't have a chance. Benvolio is even more peaceful than Romeo.
How does Romeo think about Tybalt?
What Benvolio might be thinking " Tybalt is so much trouble all he wants to do is start fights, that's what he lives for, I can't stand it. I try so hard to just keep peace but all he does is start conflicts he is a constant thorn in my side. If he wasn't so rash the Capulets and Montagues could be at peace."
