Chapter 7 Post

     A lot of interesting events occur in chapter seven. One of the most important events is when Tom decides to call out Gatsby on him and his wife's affair. This scene is crazy; Gatsby and Tom are yelling at each other discussing who Daisy really loves. I am disappointed in how Daisy handles this because she just agrees with whatever they tell her. At first Daisy sides with Gatsby, saying how she never loved Tom and that everything has just been a lie. Than when Tom asks her if she had faked their love during certain points in their relationship she says i loved you too. All of the characters were very mad. Nick and Jordan feel uncomfortable and try to leave, Daisy just listens and agrees and does not argue much, and Tom and Gatsby both are convinced that the other is crazy. In the end Daisy does seem to pick Gatsby because he drove her home but at the end of the chapter she is eating dinner with Tom. Her position on what man to go with is very unclear. A theme that is going on here is to never cheat. All cheating does is complicate things and hurt people. If Tom had never cheated Daisy and his relationship would not be as bad. If Daisy had never cheated, she would not be forced to have to pick what man she wants to spend the rest of her life with. In the future Daisy is going to have to pick a man. She can't keep playing Gatsby and Tom because everything is out in the open now. Who ever she picks though, the other person is not going to take it lightly and there is going to be much conflict in the next chapters to come.
