Look at the text in red: can you see you have introduced supporting points

The idea of love has been a timeless and universal theme, and is perhaps the
most well-known aspect of Shakespeare’s play. Romeo and Juliet is considered
to be one, if not the most famous and well-known love story in English
literature, and a potential reason for this would be because of its powerful
depiction of love. It focuses mainly on the romance between two young noble
teenagers from the corresponding feuding households, the Montagues and the
Capulets. Romeo and Juliet fall in love at a party hosted by the Capulets.
Despite learning of each other’s positions in opposing families, they
continually pursue each other and were willing to go to extremes to be with
one another. This can be seen throughout many scenes throughout the play,
such
as the plan Juliet hatched with Friar Lawrence. In order to be with her true
love, she was willing to trick her own family and friends into believing she
had passed away, only to be in a deep sleep and awaken once buried to find
Romeo. Another example of their extreme love, shown by Romeo, was the act
of
suicide when seeing what he thought was his true love, lying dead. He had
bought poison in order to commit suicide, and gave his own life in on order to
be with Juliet. The theme of love correlates to individualism that is evident
throughout the play.
Can we have a quick chat about ‘individualism’? I’m not sure I understand how
your examples in the first half of this paragraph relate to this concept.
