Romeo is one of our two protagonist in the play. At times, he directly acknowledges the power that ‘fate’ has over him. During other points in the play, Romeo demonstrates an inability to control his emotions and this means he acts rashly. we can argue that because he is an impulsive character, Shakespeare is showing us that another power, like fate, directs his life and decisions.
