Romeo and Juliet

Romeo and Juliet... a timeless tale about two kids falling in love.  On one hand, you've got Romeo, the hot headed kid of the Montegue line who falls in love with another mans girl.  And on the other hand, you have Juliet, the sweet, nieve child of the Captulet line who falls in love with the mysterious party crasher Romeo.  These kids fall so in love that they are willing to die for one another. Stupidly,i might add.  Don't get me wrong, I do love the story of Romeo and Juliet, but honestly, why so dramatic? I feel like there was a better way to go about it.  I mean, really... if I was Juliet and I woke up in a crypt and then looked down and saw the supposed love of my life lying dead on the ground, I would totally get up, step over his still warm dead body and walk out of that darn crypt.  There are other fishes in the sea, and really, why die for someone who is already dead?  Am I the only one who finds this strange?  I understand the idea of sacrificial love and unconditional love.  I know that Jesus died on the cross because he loved us so very much.  I'm not sure if I could die for someone.  Not that I'm selfish enough to think that my life is more valuable then someone elses but I do think that everything happens for a reason and idk... I'm not really sure what I'm saying.  Lol... I guess my issue is that love doesn't just happen.  You can't just fall in love with someone just by looking at them.  I'm a strong believer that there is no such as thing as love at first sight.  That it takes time and courge and fights and ways to get to know each other.  You can't just look at someone and know that you are in fact going to marry them.  Maybe I'm just a skeptic on love, or maybe I'm a realist.  Who knows... All I know is that when I like someone and he doesn't like me, I hate it and I guess thats what I'm going through right now.
