writes: I'm very much in love with my boyfriend of ten months, he is the most amazing man I've ever met. However for the next two months or so I am taking part in a production of Romeo and Juliet, I have been cast as Juliet and this absolutely gorgeous boy has been cast as Romeo. "Romeo" is also in a relationship..Recently at rehearsals we have begun to kiss in the scenes that require kissing (i.e. a lot of the scenes :-) ), neither of our boyfriend/girlfriends know that this is going on, although they do know that it will inevitably happen..I know I've fallen for Romeo, and he has for me, because it's so much more than acting when we're on stage together, i mean Other cast members have even commented on our incredibly realistic portrayal of being in love with each other, however I still love my boyfriend , much more than Romeo. My main problem is I have an intense fear of what will happen if my boyfriend finds out about us kissing (rather passionately) during rehearsals, what should I say to him? and how do i make sure he doesn't realize that me and Romeo are in love?

 you bf should let you choose : it doesn't have to be him or Romeo. It's not a battle, tell him, and it never was.

 Sounds rather poetic and ironic! Juliet practically had loves in both sides of a family...and so do you! Lol I know a lot about acting. That's what you're doing "ACTING"! Making it seem real is what it is all about...of course your boyfriend will be jealous! So what!? All great actors have to make it seem realsitic!

Messy!If I were you, I'd get a thumbs up from mr. BF before it's too late - even if you fall for Romeo, remember, he is YOUR boyfriend - Romeo is A WORK PARTNER. Just come clean coz your boyfriends gonna see you snog him in the play so I'm sure he'd appreciate a bit of warning. Give him the book, then he'll realised it would be a crap play without any kisses! Anyway - you can always say you're practising so that you'll be perfect for him after it's over.Have fun.Jelly

reader, anonymous, writes (20 February 2008): I understand that in a way you are being MADE to kiss, but it's just not fair on your boyfriend.. It's going to get to the point where it would almost be as good as cheating, and this isn't right. It's great that you can make the audience believe you have passion for each other, but it wouldn't be right to let yourself get carried away. You are trying to 'have your cake AND eat it.' You should really make a choice between the two, because your boyfriend won't be happy about this, and neither will Romeo's girlfriend. Please, don't hurt your boyfriend, and sort this out between you and Romeo as soon as possible. But make sure your boyfriend knows about the kissing, it's really only fair. Good luck :]
