In order to forget who she was, Edith created an alter-ego of herself, and tried to become that alter-ego, she never really knew the difference between what was important, and what wasn't. As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water, but apparently Edith didn't know that saying or what it meant, because she was so set on trying to impress people who didn't matter, that she pushed away her family, the ones who did matter. No matter how hard Edith tried, she could never make her fantasy life a reality.

She asks “Wha’s the matter with me? Ain’t I got a right to talk to nobody?” (pg 87) She doesn’t get to talk to people very often, and when she saw her chance with Lennie, “her words tumbled out in a passion of communication, as though she hurried before her listener could be taken away.” (pg. 88) She was very desperate to want to talk to someone as dumb as Lennie, since normally people would try to avoid a mentally disabled person. She also wants to make sure that Lennie is listening to her when she says, “You listenin’?” (pg 88) Curley’s wife needs to be listened to, because just her talking wasn’t good enough for her.

Scout never wanted to be a girly girl when she grew up. The influences of being around boys all the time she was almost raised like one. This is proof Scout is starting to lose her innocence because normally she would have never thought of acting like a lady.
