Suitable suitor?

Lord Capulet agreed to the marriage of his daughter Juliet and Count Paris (a relative of Prince Escalus).

At the family party, Paris tried to woo and win Juliet over.

What do you think Juliet thought of Paris and his efforts to romance her? 

Write a short paragraph in role as Juliet explaining how you felt when Paris came up to talk to you at the party.

    2. " Oh no that annoying man always wanting to marry me I need to find a way to run away! I could run to my bedroom and hide in the closet! Or if he knocks I could hide under the bed.... I know I can grab some food, Water, 2 blankets and a pillow and stay there with the door locked and he can't come in but I should do it in my bedroom toilet not the other ones because overly they need to use the toilet! Okay I'm ready to do this but I have to run!"

  2. I think that Juliet doesn't like Paris because Juliet likes Romeo even though Romeo killed Juliet's cousin Tybalt that doesn't mean Juliet has love in Romeo. Juliet does not like Paris she does not want to marry him she wants to marry Romeo.

  3. I think Juliet doesn't want to marry Paris because he is a bit annoying and he always wants to dance with Juliet . Juliet maybe thinks that if he wasn't here she could of decided who ever she wants to marry and mabey her father Lord caplet could of never tried to make Juliet marry Paris.

    2. The only reason why i don't want to marry Paris is because he is not my choice of love. I want someone who I love and he is so annoying and he always wants to dance with me. If he was not here maybe I could of decided who I want to marry and not my father. He is so sweet to me and he loves me but I don't love him. I wish my father was not this stricken . Why can't lhe just let me make my own choices like a normal teenager . I get treated like a one year old but I'm not I am thirteen years old I am in my teens . Some times I just hate to be royal the parents are always so are to protective with there child especially there father

  4. I think guilet wasn't interested in him because she knows that it was her dad and he gust wast to be more powerful and rich and when he gets all that powerfulness then he will think that he rules the world well guilet is not going to let that happen because she doesn't won't marry Paris but guilet thinks it's all going to be ok because she has advice from sister lorence .But guilet feels nervous still because she thinks any thing can happen at a split of a second so you know what I think she is going she is going to take the advice what sister lorence talld her she's going to hide the ring and fake the marriage wile the spit boy,sister lorence and the ners will find remeo and get him and bring him back to the village and hide in the showdowns and they can speak in secret again to be continued.

I wish I can just find someone that I love by myself like the other people. Urn if only.

  8. I think my own dad should not be making me marry some one that I do not love at all. I do not even think that I should marry him just because he is related to the prince. I can't even look at him for a second . So if I cant stare at him, why should I even say I do to him. I fell so trapped.

    2. I will make sure that I do not get bossed around I am old enough to decide what I want. I do not need my father all ways around me he can't de around me fore ever . He can't all ways force me to do this and that I am not little any more he needs to start treating me like an teenager and not like a little kid . Sometimes I feel like he doesn't care about me so why did he tell me I'm going to get married so quickly?

  11. What has my Father done , is he trying to do this on purpose?! What is going on in his head! I don't even like Paris! I bet father is only doing it to get his hands on more money! I bet even Paris thinks I'm devoted to him but no, all he's going to care about is his bewitching good looks but to me he doesn't look good at all. Paris thinks I love him but I don't because he is just a arrogant non caring man, even if we had children he wouldn't care for them at all. Why would my father force me to marry a man who won't even care for his children!!! Has my father gone mad. Paris might be able to pull it of in front of his cousins subjects but he won't be able to pull it of for me. I would rather marry a man who has been arrested than Paris. I don't know who to turn to. Can't Paris get lost because I'm not into him at all because when we're proper adults to me he will look like he has done a bit of helping in his life.

  13. I think my dad is taking over my life. Because he didn't think to ask me if I wanted to marry Paris. I think I should be the one to pick who I marry what a creep thinking. I'll marry someone I've never meet in my life. I feel like I should tell him I'm not marry someone when. It's been arranged marriage. When someone is pushing. Someone to marry you I can't even say I love him in his eyes.

He looks so happy that I am going to marry Paris the son of prince Escalus.He thinks that I am going to fall under his foot and beg him for a marriage well he is wrong.enyways why would my dad even make me marry a man that I am not entrusted about!

  19. I think that I do not deserve to be marred to Paris because all he cares about is himself and how he looks. He thinks I will fall at his knees and beg him to marry me but no way! I have a secret crush on Romeo Montague. If only he wasn't from that family, then we could be married. But I won't give up just yet. Maybe I can persuade my father that Romeo is not a bad man. Now if only this creep Paris would just go away!

  20. This creep is going to make me Mary Paris and I already like someone of my own wich is Romeo.I don't even know Paris that much so maybe he wants e to Mary Paris because he is related to the prince so Paris and Lord Capulet will get rich.Lord capulet thinks he is the boss of me and make me Mary who he wants me too and it is not fair so I am going to tell the ners to incuridge to let me Mary who I want and that is why I am going to get secretly married with Romeo because he is a montague it shall be a secret forever even though I am never going to mary Paris.

  21. I think that it is not fair that my dad is forcing me to marry Paris. my dad is so annoying I don't want to not talk to him. my dad can't always control me I am his daughter. I do not be control by my dad. I will speak to my dad and tell him that I can't always be control by him because I can do my own stuff myself I am not a servant I am his daughter. and I sertanly don't want to marry Paris. it is like I am always trap I can't do. My own stuff have fun be relaxed my dad is not controlling me so I will never marry someone else as long as I live even Paris. I can marry the person I like I can do everything I want instead being controlled all the time by my dad Lord capulet.

  22. I am feeling confused I've married Romeo now my father wants me to marry Paris. My dad is to powerful for me to talk to him. When he showed up at the party he was to big for me I'm only thirteen and he was so big and asking me to marry him he probaly just marry me for money

  23. why would my own father arrange a marriage with a person I don't even love. I cant even look at him In the eye because how selfish and arrogant he has been between me, only If I could talk to someone about this they would understand except my father. I'm also still married so this whole arranged marriage is going to make me actually make a crime..... Romeo Is the person I love only till I new that he killed my beloved Tyblat. After he killed his... friend. I never know were to look when I'm around Paris he makes me feel uncomfortable every time i wish this wedding never happens EVER.

  24. I think Paris is a ugly,backstabbing cowed! I hated that party yesterday night! Because why did my dad choose PARIS for me to live forever with! Anyway all he thinks about is himself, it's just so selfish! Ugh!!!!

  25. Why does my own father think he can just marry me off like that! It is always arranged. Every time. It's so typical of him. Paris... even saying his name makes me uncomfortable. He thinks he's all this, all that. If he thinks I'll fall at his feet (which actually stink) he is so very wrong. I would rather run away to the Montague House than marry him. He is so selfish and arrogant, he should marry himself! Just because the man is related to Prince Escalus, doesn't mean he HAS to marry me. I mean, there are plenty more fish in the sea. This is going to be a crime as well! You can't marry two men at the same time. Romeo is my love, and I will not stand for this! Marrying someone I don't love! It'd be mad! But I NEED to find a way out, or I will be arrested.
    I think that Paris trying to woo Juliet will go very wrong. He'll probably think out loud and say " Just fall at my feet already. I need to marry you!" Then Lord Capulet... will go on with the marriage because he needs the popularity.

  26. Do you want I foult of Paris he is ugly wimp my father is always wrong at everything. Always trying to impress me like I even care why dose my father know how hart breaking I haven't even known him for long time.

  27. I think Juliet thought that he was really disgusting and not handsome and she already wanted to marry someone else. 'What did my father do to me? I hate the fact that I have to force myself to marry Paris. I really love Romeo. This Paris is annoying, I will never in my life see him again. I really love you Romeo. No way I am going to marry Paris. Why did my dad say this to me when I've said I don't want to marry him.'

    What should I wear is my makeup right is it right for me to like him should I break up with Romeo Should I even go to the party ugh there is so much to think about. Deep breaths this is another normal day or is it this is the day that would decide my life what should I do. Maid tell me what to do." Don't worry about it you should be fine Romeo is history and you haven't met him yet. You will see if you like him tonight."
    The party
    Where's Paris I have to see him to decide my life " hello Juliet I'm Paris" you're ugly. I regect you even if I haven't known you for long your just to ugly and no one can replace the man I really loved. I don't know why I got all excited about you.
