Answer 2

In Act III, scenes iii and iv of Romeo and Juliet, Nurse most likely go to see Friar Laurence and Romeo because she is concerned about Juliet’s well-being.

The nurse was the one who breastfed Juliet when she was a baby and took care of her. Nurse in the play provides comical relief with her inappropriate speeches and remarks. By the end of the play, she is Juliet’s loyal intermediary and confident in her affair with Romeo. Juliet's idea of love is intense and idealistic in contrary nurse love is sexual. She believed in love and wanted a good idle- looking husband for Juliet and so she cared for Juliet’s well being. Thus, was not able to comprehend with the idea of sacrifice in love for Romeo therefore, she go to see Friar Laurence and Romeo.
