Love or Family?

In the play Romeo and Juliet Juliet has a conflict within herself. After finding out that Romeo has killed Tybalt she can't figure out whether or not to feel happy that Romeo is still alive, since if he wasn't would have. But at the same time she knows that Tybalt is family and Romeo is an enemy to the family. She asks herself, "Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband? Ah, poor my lord, what tongue shall smooth thy name when I, thy three-hours wife, hath mangled it? But wherefore, villain, didst thou kill my cousin? That villain cousin would have killed my husband." (3.2.106-111) This conflict is intra personal. When love is blind it can cause violence. Blind love that doesn't think ahead, is impulsive, and is selfish, has negative consequences.
Many people fall in love with people their families and/or friends don't approve of. And how do they cope with this? Most of them elope, which just gets them into bigger trouble. When people deal with forbidden love they only think about themselves and forget everything else. Their love is now their top priority.
