Dear Abby

Dear Abby, 

I am writing to you because I am in dire need of help. It has come to my realization that I have fallen in love with a man whose family, the Montagues, is in sworn enmity with mine, the Capulets. Isn't it absolutely horrible and wonderful at the same time? 

He was at the feast that Father had thrown for me and I must admit, the minute we locked eyes on each other something immediately clicked together. I could not look away! This is unfortunate seeing as the only reason we met was because this feast was where I was supposed to meet Paris, the man Father intends me to marry. Later, Romeo and I shared an intimate moment together and I swear, it feels as though I have met him before! The way he talks to me, and the way he glances at me, makes me feel special and I never want to love another man. He is perfect for me, just as I am perfect for him, Abby.

It wasn't hours later that I learned he was actually a Montague! By then, it was already too late to put a stop to our relationship. You see, I am torn because if I let him go then I will lose the love of my life forever. And if continue our secret relationship? Father will surely kill him. Oh Abby! What can I do?

Do I choose love over my family? Does that make me a bad person? I truly wish there was a way out of this mess that I find myself trapped in. 

I hope you can help me through this difficult time, Abby. Thank you.

Yours truly,
Juliet.
