Answer:

“Don’t act like a Romeo in front of her.” – “Romeo” is a reference to Shakespeare’s Romeo, a passionate lover of Juliet, in “Romeo and Juliet”.

Step-by-step explanation:

Allusion is a figure of speech, in which an object or circumstance from unrelated context is referred to covertly or indirectly.
