Why does Shakespeare have Romeo make a bold move in the Balcony scene so early in Romeo in Juliet?

Romantic stories all follow the same pattern, but there are two main variations. In the first, the would-be lovers are blocked by internal factors: their attitudes, preconceptions, pride, prejudice, feelings of inadequacy or resentment. In the second, the would-be lovers are blocked by external factors: one of them is kidnapped by slavers, or of an impossibly different class, or is married to someone else.

In the first class of romantic story, which we see in Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing or Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, the story ends when the internal barriers come down and the lovers are able to declare their love, so there is no declaration of love early in the story. Romeo and Juliet is a romantic story of the second kind. In this kind of story, the lovers declare their love to each other early in the story, because there are no internal barriers to their love.

The problem is that, although they know they love each other, what can they do about it?

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
