Well, the definition for headstrong is "strong-willed and obstinate"

leahhhmorgannn · Answer

so what do you think?

leahhhmorgannn · Answer

self-willed and obstinate - I'm sorry, error in that definition.

anonymous · Answer

yeah but words can be used differently

such as in our generation we use words in different context and the same thing in romeo and juliet

anonymous · Answer

this is a tough one but it'll either be brave or strong

leahhhmorgannn · Answer

I was going to say those were most likely the best answers anyways. I mean, language and usage of words have obviously changed since Romeo and Juliet.

anonymous · Answer

even though your right @leahhhmorgannn you can't go straight for a definition cause your talking about romeo and juliet, but yes in this case your right

anonymous · Answer

brave or strong @iGreen
