Juliet in Act 2 Scene 2 of Romeo and Juliet has unwittingly told Romeo that she loves him. She is embarassed when she finds she has given herself away. Girls back then were supposed to play hard-to-get, but even nowadays a girl would be embarassed in this situation.

Oh, please. Are you a fourteen year old girl, have ever been a fourteen year old girl, or have ever known a fourteen year old girl? How would a fourteen-year old girl feel if you started reading her diary, especially if it says how hot she thinks that curly-haired boy that sits two rows over is? She'd be horribly embarrassed. Teenaged girls are hypersensitive about these things; they can't help it; it's genetic. Juliet has done the equivalent of reading her diary out loud when she thinks nobody can hear her, and finding out that the curly-haired boy she thinks is so hot overheard the whole thing. It's a wonder she didn't put a paper bag over her head.

Because what she was thinking out loud was how much she liked and desired Romeo. Any fourteen year old girl would be embarassed being caught saying those kinds of things out loud, especially by the guy she is saying them about.

OK, visualize this. You're a girl talking to your friend at a party and you tell her all about this guy you like, how hot you think he is, what you'd like to do to him, how he makes you feel and so on, and you turn around and he was standing right behind you all along.

Or if you're a guy, imagine you are having that conversation about a girl you really like, and she was standing behind you all along.

If you aren't embarassed by that, you don't know embarassment. You could walk into a job interview without your pants on and not be embarassed.

So, Juliet wasn't talking to a friend--she was talking to herself--but the last person she would want to hear her talking about how much she loves Romeo is Romeo herself.
