Daisy is very stuck up and materialistic. She I only in her marriage for the money. Daisy is also a very fake person; “Im paralyzed with happiness pg.13”. Tom is her husband only because he is very wealthy. When Gatsby comes back she went out with him and old feelings came back. She cheated on Tom but wouldnt leave because she thought divorce was wrong. I guess she never thought cheating fit in the same category as divorce.
Myrtle is in love with Tom and his lifestyle. Tom gives her everything that her husband cannot. Her husband is too nice to notice they wrong his wife is doing. However deep down Mr. Wilson must have know or he wouldnt have told her this “God knows what youve been doing, everything youve been doing. You may fool god but you cant fool god!”pg. 167. I think myrtle would have left her husband in a heart beat if Tom had left Daisy. Myrtle was blind by in infatuation that she could not see that Tom was and would always be a cheat.
Tom is a big selfish cheater. He has all these flings all over town and is so inconsiderate about what its doing to Daisy. I think Tom will always be a cheater no matter what happens. Hell always find some pretty girl where ever they move. Although Tom cheats, once he noticed Daisy and Gatsby he was angry; “Tom was evidently perturbed at Daisys running around alone, for on the following Saturday night he came with her to Gatsbys party”pg.110. Daisy did the same thing Tom was doing to her, but hes just one huge hypocrite.
