Question 1  

The Nurse chose not to tell Juliet's mother about the "relationship" and marriage ceremony between Juliet and Romeo. She was loyal to Juliet, her needs, and her desires. She did not rat out on her.

In our day and age, we are prone to choose friends over family. (Not everyone is, but it's something that is evident in our society and has caught my attention.) Normally, when certain peers violate a family principal we are predisposed to defending them or turning an eye over their misdemeanor. It's similar to the Nurse and Juliet's situation/relationship. 

Question 2  

A scene in the play implied that Romeo was wrong for giving "the slip" to his peers for a woman. Friendship then was very valued. Seemingly it was not common to withdraw from or neglect friends - mainly of the same gender - for the opposite sex.

Nowadays, we aren't hesitant to end relations with trusted individuals for a new companionship. Gender usually does not play a role in our associations whatsoever, and 'the slip' is widely performed by many without shame.
