You-Should-Quit-Love

I honestly am kind of embarrassed for the characters in this book. Sure, "all is fair in love and war" they say, but i think there is just far too much to conquer. Take Daisy's materialistic nature.
Sure she loves Tom, but she loves his money more. She proved that the first time around when she left Gatsby in the dust, and sorry Jay, not much has changed. Gatsby just won't give up on her. He thinks he can throw extravagant parties just so he can waltz in and steal her heart...but his unrequited love for her just doesn't seem enough.

But it isn't Gatsby stuck in oblivion, Tom is right there with him. He hasn't noticed this entire summer the loss of his wife to Mr. Gatsby. He is too concerned with his love, Mrs. Wilson. After the hypocrite Tom chastizes Gatsby for stealing away his wife, he is left with no mistress himself.
Mr. Wilson refuses to give up his love for Mrs. Wilson, and decides to move as far away from Tom as possible. Even though Myrtle is well aware of this predicament, she unhappily refuses to give up Tom. When will the characters realize what they already have is all they're ever going to get?
