Throughout the play, Paris and Romeo's attitudes towards love, traditions, fidelity, and actions differ significantly.
Paris, Juliet's intended husband, represents the traditional view of love and marriage. He is focused on trying to win Juliet's hand through proper courtship and following societal norms. Paris respects Juliet’s wishes and is willing to wait for their marriage to be consummated. He is portrayed as loyal and committed to Juliet, even in the face of her reluctance to marry him. Paris's actions are driven by duty and a sense of responsibility towards Juliet and her family.
On the other hand, Romeo represents a more impulsive and passionate view of love. He falls deeply in love with Juliet at first sight and is willing to go to great lengths to be with her, even though their families are feuding. Romeo's love is intense and often driven by his emotions, leading him to make rash decisions that ultimately lead to tragedy. Despite his love for Juliet, Romeo's actions are often reckless and impulsive, such as killing Tybalt in a fit of rage.
In the end, both Paris and Romeo's love for Juliet ultimately lead to their deaths. Paris's traditional approach to love and loyalty to Juliet are ultimately not enough to save him from the tragic fate that befalls him. Romeo's passionate love for Juliet, while genuine, is also destructive and ultimately leads to both of their deaths. The contrasting ways in which Paris and Romeo approach love and their actions towards Juliet ultimately illustrate the complexities and consequences of love in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.
