What affect does Benvolio's attitude to love have on Romeo?
Benvolio clearly thinks that Romeo's 'love' for Rosaline is false and really and infatuation - 'blind is his love that best befits the dark.' but is there any evidence that this has an affect on Romeo? Please help is for a controlled assessment tomorrow!!



Answer :

Well Benvolio believes this because Romeo has an immature love in which he swears to never forget Rosaline and yet he unwittingly does once he sees Juliet. So he only remembers the girls he currently sees, and forgets all others. Plus he doesn't even know Juliet at first, so his blind love is rather reckless. And a reckless person like Romeo would surely be unmoved by what benvolio said.
