GG Ch.6

In this chapter the rumors about gatsby are going around a lot and everyone wants to know the real story about his past. There is even a newspaper writer that came to his house to ask him if he had anything to say about his life and he says no. So then nick says that he wants to tell the real story but it wasn't at this piont that he learned about it. he says that gatsby grew up on a farm and his name was actually james gatz and that he dropped out of college and that he got onto a boat cause he saved them from going into a storm. then he worked for the owner and fell in love with the rich lifestyle and when dan cody died he was supposed to get 25000 bucks but he didn't. so then he dedicated the rest of his life to getting rich. so then nick comes back into what is really happening. so he finds that tom is over at gatsbys having lunch and so he goes and it is very awkward and gatsby says that he knows daisy. so then jay has a party and and daisy comes and tom too and jay watches her the whole time and she does not have a good time. so gatsby isn't hap;py because she isn't happy and so he tells nick that he wants her to leave tom and come to her but then he nick figures out that gatsby just wants to please her with his money and that it will never work.
I think that jay doesn't really know what he is in for and that he is trying in all the wrong ways to get daisy back and also Nick is starting to feel very very uncomfortable because he knows that he is caught in the middle of this. i think that he can see the error in jays ways and that it will never be the same between them.
