Read the lines from Act II, scene ii of Romeo and Juliet.

Juliet: O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father, and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I’ll no longer be a Capulet.

Answer:

hopefulness and longing.

Step-by-step explanation:

Juliet doesn't want Romeo to be a Montague because her family hates them all. Same goes for how the Montagues feel about the Capulets, who are Juliet's family. She wants Romeo to no longer be a Montague or her to no longer be a Capulet so they can be together.
