Read the excerpt from Act V, scene iii of Romeo and Juliet.

Juliet: Go, get thee hence, for I will not away. [Exit FRIAR LAURENCE.]
What’s here? a cup, clos’d in my true love’s hand?
Poison, I see, hath been his timeless end.
O churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop
To help me after! I will kiss thy lips;
Haply, some poison yet doth hang on them,
To make me die with a restorative. [Kisses him.]

Which tragic flaw of Juliet’s character is reflected in this excerpt?

her optimistic way of seeing the world
her tendency to act without forethought
her tendency to act out of vengeance
her carefree way of living life

Her tendency to act without forethought.

She impulsively kisses Romeo hoping to get poison from his lips and immediately decides to kill herself — a rash, emotionally driven act rather than a considered choice.
