codependency repeatedly sacrifice themselves over and over again to satiate the insatiable needs of borderline women who can never love them back. Jay Gatspy's high-risk lifestyle and chronic self-sacrifice is a form of suicide via proxy. He wanted to be shot at the end of the novel because he was in so much pain. Daisy didn't care one iota what happened to Jay in the end. She probably just bragged about it to her friends and labelled Jay a crazy sick fool that she barely had anything to do with. Daisy is an abusive coercively controlling crazymaker and there is nothing romantic about that. Knowledge (XXG)'s purpose is to educate people and by not conveying Fitzgerad's true message about the lethality of trauma bonding with people who can never love you back this article is placing the lives of many men at risk. I believe The Great Gatspy is more relevant today than it has ever been but we need to understand this novel for what it truly is. A warning to humanity.

the past trauma of separation which they think is because of the war separating them but actually both characters are suffering from childhood trauma. Jay was raised by impoverished Lutherine farmers who probably shamed him a lot and made him feel like love was something that had to be earned and not given freely in a mutually reciprocal sense while Daisy raized in an upper class household probably didn't have her emotional needs met before the age of two because the upper classes outsource child rearing to nannies and later boarding school. Therefore, she has

Hemingway admired the manuscript greatly when Fitzgerald showed it to him. However, he told Fitzgerald that the novel never makes clear whether Daisy and Gatsby are sleeping together in the present. He found this a weakness. Fitzgerald replied that he agreed, but he had never made his mind up as to whether they were or not.So much of Gatsby's feeling for Daisy was a tragic version of courtly love. Fitzgerald found it entirely believable that this emotion could have remained in his head, like his own for Ginevra King.

I may have limited attention to work on it but will try to help! Once the spinoff is ready for mainspace, we could consider cutting down the main article to only mention adaptations which have their own articles. (I also find myself wondering if a chronological list would be worth assembling...) 359: 789: 765: 908:
The plot recap in the article states as fact that Gatsby and Daisy, when reunited "embarked upon a sexual affair." But this is never explicitly stated or even hinted at in the actual novel. We are told only that they were lovers in the past, when they first knew each other, "and Gatsby felt married."

Fitzgerald's masterpiece should not be read as a romantisization of the jazz-flapper roaring twenties but as a warning to humanity about the dangers of trauma bonds and mistaking Daisy's borderline-abuse for love but as a foreboding preminition of the 2020's where good men who are unaware of their

Thank you for your insightful and knowledgeable comment. I concur the phrase should be changed. How shall we update the phrasing? I fear that replacing it "embarked upon a romance" would be misleading since we don't know if Daisy returns Gatsby's affections. We could delete the word "sexual" and
