Question

In Romeo and Juliet, the tragic hero is Romeo. Recall that a tragic flaw is a tragic hero’s defect or weakness that causes his downfall. Write an essay explaining Romeo’s tragic flaw and how this flaw leads to the death of Romeo and his bride. How, where, and when do we see Romeo exhibiting this flaw in the play?
I need 3 reasons why
Along with one quote/cited example from the book for each

Answer 1

Romeo's tragic flaw is his impulsiveness, his reckless action before thinking.
Examples are :

Falling in "love" with Juliet within minutes of meeting her, even after finding out that she was a Capulet

Romeo being a blue gnome but was a rebel for falling in love with a red gnome.

And he kept his secret from his family and friends.
