When Romeo says, “Oh dear account! My life is my foe’s debt,” he is saying that him marrying Juliet would be the wrong thing to do, and if he married her, then that decision of his would affect him immediately after the marriage up to his whole life. Also, him knowing that he has fallen for a Capulet is very shocking, because Capulets are Montague’s enemies.
