In the example given in the former answer, Romeo is trying
to avoid fighting Tybalt, simply because he is now related to him. However, that isn't
Romeo's usual way of dealing with conflict. When it comes to internal conflict, it's a
different story.
First of all, whenever he has an internal
conflict and he doesn't know how to handle it, he goes to his father-figure in the play,
Friar Laurence. Romeo never seeks advice from his father. The Friar is the gentle,
supportive, and calming influence in Romeo's
life.
Secondly, both Romeo and Juliet are young, impulsive,
and emotional. Every time a situation doesn't go their way, they immediately threaten to
kill themselves. After Romeo kills Tybalt and is banished from Verona, he seeks shelter
in the Friar's cell and and the Friar has to stop Romeo from taking his
life.
