She never asked her what was wrong. Joe thought he knew all about Amanda seeing that they grew up together, but he didn’t feel that way anymore.

She said school is shit and home is shit but she didn’t explain why and Joe never asked.
Not just in this lousy little town. In general. My life, I mean. It’s almost like I got killed over in Nam… Hard to describe. That night when Kiowa got wasted, I sort of sank down into the sewage with him… Feels like I’m still deep shit.”(Page 150) Bowker is also intelligent and is well supported by his parents, but he did not see any meaning in getting a job or even going to school.
As a result, why would Levi commit suicide after everything he had previously been through? Was there nothing more for him to live for? Levi was without children or a wife to visit him and had previously completed a book. Therefore, maybe he planned his suicide ahead of time because he was tired of living alone with the memories of the Holocaust, and no one to tell them to. Or maybe Levi just thought that his life was complete and felt that he no longer had a purpose or reason to live.
Her father was most of the time at work and when he was home he didn't bother talking much to Connie. So Connie didn't have love from him and had to find male attention elsewhere. When Connie would be her best friend, they would pretend to go the shopping plaza but would sneak across the
George is trying to protect Lennie from getting into caught by others when he does something wrong. George would rather him get away from the madness because he generously cares and doesn't want anyone to hurt him. He did this because most probably didn’t understand Lennie's mental problem and Lennie sometimes didn’t realize when enough was enough; like when he played in Curley’s wife's hair and when he touched the girl’s dress back in Weed. Later on in the book Lennie accidentally kills Curley’s wife by snapping her neck. When George later found out he came up with a plan to get him away and told Curley about it.
“Crooks had reduced himself to nothing” (89). As Candy and Lennie leave Crooks’ room he tells them to forget about him going with them, he wouldn’t want to go to a place like that. He gained hope for less than an hour and lost it as soon as one woman “put him in his place.” All the other men up until that point continued to hope that one day things could get better, Crooks did not, and this isolates him. He tells Lennie “Nobody never gets to heaven, and nobody gets no land. It’s just all in their heads
Either she was too weak to figure out her situation, or a lifetime of having everything handed to her made her simply not want to. Tom and Daisy left the very next day. And through how a stressed Daisy ran over Tom's mistress, Myrtle, causing her husband, George Wilson, to shoot Gatsby out of grief and confusion, it caused his death too. It still wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't died-Daisy and Tom still would've left. His dream of reliving the past was all he really had.
For one family it was already crowded. What they did later on when the population increased, they started putting two families in the single-family house. This lead to the whole city being overcrowded which lead to unsanitary living. The landlords never did the job right. The landlord didn’t give the immigrants a place to put their garbage so they just put it in the hallway, or just throw it out on the street.
This differs from how Lily acts because Lily relies on others to help make her happy. One of the reasons that June does not want to marry Neil is because she does not want to admit that she might actually need him. She is afraid of letting someone know that she needs them because the last time she fell in love he left her. “Ever since Melvin Edwards backed out of your wedding all those years back, you’ve been afraid of love, refusing to take a chance” (211). August knows that June is afraid to fall in love again because the last man that she fell in love with left her.
Alex figured if she thinks im good looking mabey she will love me tonight. And sarah figured if she could avoid love it would go away and all guys were jerks. In the end they both relize there ways of logic towards love were off. So due to those common mistakes many individuals lack the ability to go out and find that special one. They just sit back and watch as another man who will mistreat that girl come in and ruin all hope.
