He doesn't want to go to the party because he is so depressed about Roseline so he thinks he'll have a terrible time. Also, he had a dream the night before saying that going to the party would lead to his own death (he was right). Also, the host of the party is his worst enemy so going to the party might start a brawl

Why does Juliet not want romeo to swear by the moon that he loves her?

Because the moon is inconstant and ever changing, and Juliet wants to know that Romeo will love her forever.


What does Juliet ask Romeo NOT to swear his love by and what is her reason?

I think this is referring to this bit of dialogue: Romeo: Lady, by yonder blessed moon I swear... Juliet: O, swear not by the moon [ ... ] lest thy love prove likewise variable. In other words, she's not telling him not to swear his love, she's telling him "Don't swear on the moon. It changes. I don't want a love that waxes and wanes." If you meant something else, please be more specific.

Why does Juliet tell Romeo not to swear to the moon?

"Oh, swear not by the moon, th'inconstant moon that monthly changes in her circled orb, lest that thy love prove likewise variable" This is a personification; the monthly change in illumination is likened to the changing moods of a person. Juliet does not want him to swear by anything that is so untrustworthy.

Why does Juliet not want Romeo to swear by the moon?

"O swear not by the moon, th'inconstant moon,That monthy changes in her circl'd orb,Lest that thy love prove likewise variable."Juliet says not to swear by the moon because it is always changing. If Romeo swears by the moon, Juliet takes it that his love will change, and she is asking for a declaration of his undying love.The moon waxes and wanes in accordance to the monthly lunar cycle. Juliet does not want Romeo to pledge his love in the name of something that fluctuates so cyclically. She wants him to swear to something permanent, and changing.He is a fickle character and before Juliet was in love with another girl. Juliet wants him to say that he loves her earnestly and stop with the stupid and overly romantic and exaggerated promises. She doesn't want him to love her and make sure it is backed up with swearing by the moon. She just wants him to back up his own love for her on his own grounds and nothing else.The moon changes nightly and is not constantly present; therefore, Romeo pretty much did not swear to always love her but instead sometimes love her but not always full and not always there.Because the moon is 'inconstant', that is it changes. It grows larger in the sky and then smaller and then disappears altogether. She wants a love that is constant, not temporary.Because the moon always changes , so according to Juliet she doesn't want Romeo's feelings for her to change they should stay truthful and the same.
