Romeo and Juliet effect.

Do you know ‘ Romeo and Juliet effect’ ? It is used in psychology. It means that love is more powerful when someone opposed their love. I hadn’t experienced this effect, but I felt this recently. Do you think this effect is real? I think it is clearly true. For example, I argued with my boyfriend almost everyday. I was making peace with my boyfriend after I argued with him. I suddenly asked him for going my home. He worried about his costume, but I asked him again and again. So, he bought chicken for my parents, and went my home. But my parents thought he is rude. Because he didn’t prepare for meeting. He wore sportswear and slippers. They rebuked him for etiquette, and said me ” You don’t invite him after this time. ” I felt sorry to him. But  far from blaming me, he comforted me , instead. We don’t argue untill now but also think much of each other.
