In an inter-social class marriage, what happens after “Happily Ever After”? What problems may the couple face?

1. Daisy used to love Gatsby, then married Tom. Now that Gatsby is back in her life, she becomes conflicted.
Is it possible to be in love with two people? If someone is truly in love with one person do you think they can still be attracted or tempted by another person? 


2. Gatsby has been dreaming of being with Daisy again for the last five years. Nick worries that maybe he has built his expectations up too high. 
Draw a comparison to your own life. Describe a time when you built up an expectation for someone. When you got to know them, was it as amazing as you had hoped? Or were you disappointed? Explain.

To what extent do you agree or disagree? 
In other words, if you have a goal, you should stop at nothing to pursue it.
