Love is the most beautiful feeling in the world. Love is what makes people do crazy things, but also makes them feel so good. In this blog post, we break down some of the most famous love stories of all time and show you how they’ve impacted our history!
Romeo and Juliet
The classics never go out of style! Romeo and Juliet both suffered a tragic fate when they fell in love with each other. They were from rival families, so their love was forbidden. When their secret relationship is discovered by the two noble houses, they’re forced not to be together any longer. Eventually, this leads up to them taking their own lives because they can’t live without one another. This play has been adapted time after time for theater productions all over the world – we have it on our list too!
