1 answer

The correct answer is: Tybalt is focused on hate, but Romeo is focused on love.

In the play, Tybalt is known for his aggressive and violent nature, constantly seeking to provoke fights and uphold his family's honor. When he spots Romeo at the party, he is immediately filled with anger and desires to confront him. On the other hand, Romeo attends the party because he is infatuated with Rosaline and hopes to catch a glimpse of her. He is not interested in confrontation or violence, but rather in finding love and companionship. This stark contrast in their motivations and priorities highlights the opposing elements of hate and love.
