    Tom is very narrow-minded, and believes he is much superior to everyone, and therefore,should have everything. This is clearly seen when he brings up his opinion over a book he claims he has been reading, as he says, “this fellow has worked out the whole thing. It’s up to us, who are the dominant race, to watch out or these other races will have control of things”(Pg.16). Tying in with the fact that Tom believes he deserves everything, it becomes clear he also loves to have total control over everything, even people. Thus, ultimately treating people like his property, and manipulating them along the way. This is seen by the fact that Daisy stays by Tom’s side, even though she and everybody clearly know about his mistress. He is able to not only have his wife, but his mistress on the side, who he parades around publicly, to his wife’s humiliation,” I was confused and a little disgusted as I drove away. It seemed to me that the thing for Daisy to do was to rush out of the house, child in arms — but apparently there were no such intentions in her head. As for Tom, the fact that he ‘had some woman in New York.’ was really less surprising than that he had been depressed by a book”(Pg.23). When a situation does not seem to go his way, Tom reacts aggressively, and violently, in an effort to manipulate the situation to benefit him. During one encounter with his mistress, Myrtle, she blatantly causes a scene and rebels against him, “some time toward midnight Tom Buchanan and Mrs. Wilson stood face to face, discussing in impassioned voices whether Mrs. Wilson had any right to mention Daisy's name. Making a short deft movement, Tom Buchanan broke her nose with his open hand”(Pg.41). He is definitely not the type of person to allow people to disobey him or humiliate him, or to even feel like control is slipping away from his…

    In DSM-V, criterion 1 describes people with Histrionic Personality Disorder as people who are uncomfortable in situations where they are not the center of attention.2 If a person with this disorder notices that they are not the center of attention, they may do something dramatic or elaborate to gain attention, often attempting to charm others with enthusiasm, apparent openness, or flirtatiousness.3 Through careful analysis of the book, I will demonstrate Daisy’s thirst for attention. She is constantly doing things to gain attention and this catches the attention of the narrator, her cousin, Nick Carraway. In his description of her in the first chapter, he notes that “Daisy’s murmur was only to make people lean towards her”4 This indicates that Daisy not only desires attention, but she commands it. She speaks in a murmur so that those who want to speak with her are required to hang on her every word. She also expects that she is the center of everyone’s world. When Nick mentions that he had been to Chicago, the town…

    He has such a fluctuation in moods in regards to the smallest situations and has expressed life as being a game and him winning at any cost. This has caused a lot of turmoil in our relationship to the point that I have left and moved out on two separate occasions, unable to continue to take the verbal abuse I encounter when Rudy feels as if he is being attacked. When it comes to our children, he expects a quiet house usually getting very irritated or exacerbated when it is too loud. He will avoid playing games with his step-son that involve any type of violence or war related material and often states he has done it in real life. In addition to him feeling as if the kids are planning or plotting behind his back and are up to no good. He has a difficult time communicating with me and consistently feels as if I am against him in any given…
