Act 1 Scene 1: Romeo's Depression
Prompt E
The relationship between Benvolio and Romeo is that of best friends or the very least very good friends. Benvolio was actually worried about Romeo's depression and wanted to help him forget about his love. Benvolio suggested that they go look at other women so Romeo can get better. Benvolio also seems almost like an older brother to Romeo, as can seen with the way he treats Romeo. He tells him dirty jokes and gives him advice, which seems like something an older brother would do.
I think they are cousins and not just good friends. And that changes some of the reasons why he cares about Romeo so much, because they are family.
