    Romeo's depression at the beginning of Act 1 Scene 1 of Romeo and Juliet is significant and can be interpreted in different ways. Romeo's father and cousin note his melancholy mood, and Romeo speaks of being "out of her favour" and feeling love but no love. This evidence could support the argument that Romeo's depression foreshadows the doomed ending of his love for Juliet, that it shows he is an overly passionate lovesick kid whose love for Juliet is diminished, or that love inevitably leads to pain and loneliness.
