These relationships are very important because they determine the changes that happen to each character throughout the plot. In these works the minor characters are given the most credit for causing changes and self-discoveries in the main characters. In the novel Fathers and Sons and in the play A Doll’s House by Ibsen, some of the characters discover themselves mostly due to the influence of minor characters around them. In Fathers and Sons, it is clear that the character that went through the most change and self-discovery was Arkady. Unlike his friend Bazarov, he wasn’t certain of his nihilistic beliefs and was more of a follower than a friend to him, “Look, there is one sitting beside you, ready to worship the ground beneath your feet.
However, later on, Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth eventually fall in love with each other. According to this story, prejudice can blind the eyes of a person because people having prejudice toward others don't see the truth about a person. Prejudice can be caused by words that make people misunderstand because wrong words make people think the wrong thing. When Mr. Bingley tells Mr. Darcy to dance with Elizabeth during the dinner party, Mr. Darcy says, "She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me and I am in no humor at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men" (Austen 7). Mr. Darcy is telling Mr. Bingley that Elizabeth is not pretty so he has no interest in her.
Hindley firstly says, «'Why, Cathy, you are quite a beauty! I should scarcely have known you: you look like a lady now.» This quote is firstly ironic, since it contrasts to his poor supervision of his sister and Heathcliff when running around on the moors before she eventually stayed at the Grange, since he did not really show that he cared for his sister’s wellbeing. This quote however, is very falsely spoken since Hindley does not really care about his sister – and only for him and his wife, Frances. It is also significant though, since it is the first time that Catherine is pronounced a «lady», and so is a contrast between Cathy’s former self. Furthermore, the first thing that Catherine says when she arrives home and is off her horse is an inquiry about the whereabouts of Heathcliff.
Isben wants to highlight how crude not having equality for women is, especially when a portion of them are smarter than a portion of the opposite gender and vice versa. He shows Nora’s husband in an attempt to emphasize the negative part of the non-feminism side. He shows him as a belittling man to his “squanderbird” and how he treats her with little respect. (A Doll’s House) He does so by using little nicknames that remind her of problems she has while she retains herself from pointing out his flaws. Although, it is understandable that she doesn’t point out his flaws with all the lies and guilt she has stacked up on her marriage.
They Met At a Very Strange Time in His Life “I want Tyler. Tyler wants Marla. Marla wants me.” (Palahniuk 14) However, the reader of Fight Club quickly learns that “I” and “Tyler” are the same person, named Jack. The only reason Tyler is around is because Jack is lacking any sort of self-esteem or identity in his life.

These negative feelings are due to dads not regularly seeing and interacting with their kids. Comparably, couples without kids experienced barely any change in their sense of family well-being. Consequently this creates a since of detachment between all the parties involved. For moms who usually are the primary care taker of kids after the split it usually is an economic stress trying to raise kids on her own. Alas at she would jump at the very opportunity at a new relationship whether it’s healthy or not, and quickly sign herself up for another relationship that will end on bad terms, just for the help.
