Hey Sweetie.. Im curious... How werent Romeo and Juliet in Love? Juliet killed herself because she in fact thought that Romeo was dead... and when Romeo came back and seen that Juliet was dead... he killed himself.. That is love.. When someone kills themself for someone they like its more then just lust... In fact.. its got to be love.. Im sorry to say.. but I dont think your point can be proven...

Ok, google the phrase "love vs lust," you should get a lot of things. Talk about how Romeo was "in love" with that other chick in the beginning. (I forgot her name)
Look up stuff on the chemical aspect of love/lust/attraction.
I, personally, am with you all the way. Sounds like teenage infatuation to me.

Based on the modern movie of Romeo &Juliet, anyone would say it's lust. But you need to base your evidence on the time period the piece was actually written in. Back then sex wasn't really something ordinary, especially to people of such nobility. And the fact that they barely saw eachother enough to lust over.

i think Romeo and Juliet were not in love with each other, but in love with being in love (think about it, it makes sense).

I don't really have any advice for ya, just an opinion...ARE YOU CRAZY?! Romeo and Juliet were totally in love! Look what they went through just to be together, their families wouldn't let them be together, so they ended the fight by killing themselves so they could be in heaven forever together! They were totally madly in love! If you think it wuz just lust, then you must not have really understood it...I suggest reading it again, then writing your essay. Much Love!!

Actually they realy were in love. Thats why they died when the other was dead. Why they had sex. Why they made out all the time. And why romeo would constantly stop fights between the two families so he could stay with juliet. Your opinion is very i suggest you rethink it.

I'm not sure what kind of information your searching for to prove your point. I know that there are a lot of examples that you can give to support your argument, but are you looking more toward psychological sources that proves that it's lust? or...?
Like if it's works cited, I'd recommend looking into some psychology forums online. If it's informal arguments and concepts, just reply back and I'll see what I can do :)
