He is but back then he would have been considered very passionate.

Where's your sense of Romance? yes, your analysis is correct for today. Isn't uncanny how people are still the same as they were hundreds of years ago? He is the example of a spoiled, rich, Italian boy.

1) emo: "A young person who is considered to be over-emotional" http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/emo How should one of the greatest romantic lovers of western literature not be overly emotional? Also, people of the past could sometimes have had stronger ways of expressing their emotions, for instance before the Victorian age. "Thou canst not speak of that thou dost not feel: 65 Wert thou as young as I, Juliet thy love, 66 An hour but married, Tybalt murdered, 67 Doting like me and like me banished, 68 Then mightst thou speak, then mightst thou tear thy hair, 69 And fall upon the ground, as I do now, 70 Taking the measure of an unmade grave" Source and further information: "Romeo and Juliet: Act 3, Scene 3" http://clicknotes.com/romeo/T33.html 2) whiny: "Of or pertaining to whining; tending to whine or complain." http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/whiny He is depressive because he is in love with Rosaline and this love is not requited. So he has some reasons to complain. 3) tard: "(offensive, slang) A person with mental retardation (from retard)" http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/tard I don't think he is. Theater exaggerates a lot of people's behaviors. People of time past often appear simple minded for today's standards. And love, as we know, makes often blind and somewhat stupid... 4) stalker: "A person who secretly follows someone, especially someone famous, sometimes with unlawful intentions." http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/stalker This he is certainly not. He has not been "breaking into her house", he just "leap'd this orchard wall". http://clicknotes.com/romeo/T21.html And the reason he is secretly observing Juliet is that he is not allowed to meet her, but the interdiction does certainly not come from Juliet, rather from her parents.
