Chapter 6
This chapter further demonstrates the spiritual and moral corruption between these characters. Nick again seems to be the only one with moral values. I noticed that even Daisy, who initially identified Tom as a terrible soul for cheating, is currently cheating on Tom with Gatsby. This is ironic because earlier in the story when Nick and Daisy were talking, Daisy says that she hates her life because she is being cheated on. However, she is currently involved in the same junk that Tom is. I almost feel like they are trying to cover each others faults with the same faults. This also makes it ironic that Daisy was crying to Nick about her cheating husband. If I was upset about my wife cheating on me, I would at least try not to make the same mistake. In order to make a prediction, I will say that Tom ends up getting jealous that he can not have both Daisy and Myrtle. Does anyone agree or disagree with me?
