Irresponsibility in the Great Gatsby
Irresponsible relationships(Great Gatsby)
A responsible marriage is when both sides of the relationship take responsibility for their actions, for one another and most importantly are not having affairs with others. When there is lack of responsibility, things are at risk to be destroyed or lost. In the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald all of the marriages fail to show any signs of responsibility through their actions. We see three main relationships throughout the novel that fail to act in a responsible manner. Daisy and Tom Buchanan, Tom and Myrtle, and Daisy and Gatsby. Daisy and Tom are both extremely irresponsible. Tom's irresponsible persuasion essentially leads to Myrtle's death. Daisy does not take any responsibility for her actions which lead to Gatsby's death. Tom and Daisy Buchanan's irresponsibility in their relationships ultimately leads to death and destruction, for their own relationship and others.
Tom and Daisy Buchanan's marriage is full of irresponsibility, on both sides of the marriage. This leads to chaos between them, and destruction of life. We see Daisy's irresponsible actions during the scandal at the Plaza Hotel. When Tom, Daisy and Gatsby have a vivid argument, Daisy reveals that she " never loved him". Tom, her husband, asks: "Not at Kapiolani", to which she replies: "No" (F.Scott Fitzgerald pg. 132)
This shows that Daisy apparently never loved Tom. Daisy is a irresponsible woman, she is saying that she never loved her husband. If that is the case, then why is she married to Tom in the first place? This is extremely irresponsible .In addition Daisy is also showing her feelings for Gatsby in front of her husband. Daisy quietly says to Gatsby "You look so cool." Their eyes met and they stared at each other, alone in space. "You always look so cool," she repeated. She had told him that she loved him, and Tom Buchanan saw. (F.Scott Fitzgerald pg.119).
This just proves Daisy's irresponsibility. If she had loved
