Loneliness of Tom Buchanan

Tom Buchanan is a lonely man even though he does have two women in his life. He doesn't love the woman that he had married and is cheating on her with Myrtle Wilson, a middle-aged women from a poor town in New York. Tom may be lonely because he doesn't get to be with the woman he loves and he knows that the woman he is married to doesn't love him either. Tom doesn't have many friends. Maybe that is because he is really wealthy and snobby. All Tom wants is to move out and live with the woman he actually loves and that is what will make him happy but he can't do that because he is married and the woman he loves is married too.

  1. Are there any quotes in the book that can prove his loneliness?
