Read the dialogue between the two main characters in Act I, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo: [To JULIET.] If I profane with my unworthiest hand
This holy shrine, the gentle sin is this;
My lips, two blushing pilgrims, ready stand
To smooth that rough touch with a tender kiss.
Juliet: Good pilgrim, you do wrong your hand too much,
Which mannerly devotion shows in this;
For saints have hands that pilgrims’ hands do touch,
And palm to palm is holy palmers’ kiss.
Based upon this dialogue, Romeo is
heartbroken over Rosaline.
feeling shy around a Capulet.
impulsive and affectionate.
reserved and introspective.

Answer:

impulsive and affectionate

Step-by-step explanation:

In spite of the imminent danger that being together represents, these two lovers, Romeo and Juliet, defy the restriction that the enmity of the two families has placed upon them. The act of kissing is an act of consumating the love they feel for each other, however, given the circumstances, Romeo is risking his life by succumbing to an impulse. The words Romeo and Juliet exchange are evidence of the affection they feel for each other.
