Romeo's family and Juliet's family were rival families. They had been arguing with each other for years. Since Romeo couldn't marry Juliet, he was very sad. Another sad thing: Juliet didn't want to marry another person so she drank a liquid which made her look dead. Romeo didn't know this so he killed himself for Juliet. When Juliet woke up, she saw that Romeo died so she killed herself. So at the end, they both died. Sad, huh. Boo hoo hoo. ToT

He's not really sad, but he's playing the part of the sad lover whose beloved is cold and cruel to him. Rosaline is playing the part of the cold and cruel beloved.

Explain juliet's emotional stresswhat upsets her the most?

Romeo and Juliet is a well known play written by William Shakespeare. Although it has many sad events, i think Juliet finds the most upsetting is when she finds her dear husband (Romeo) dead! The story is very romantic and quite sad as they both die in the end! But i would recommend you read it if you have not already!
