This shows us that she is dedicated because she wanted to see Nick.

'Even if we are cousins. You didn’t come to my wedding.I wasn’t back from the war.' ''That’s true' she hesitated. 'Well I’ve had a very bad time Nick and I’m pretty cynical about everything.'” (Page 16). Daisy tells us that she is cynical, meaning that she is motivated by self-interest.

'Daisy! Daisy! Daisy!' Shouted Mrs. Wilson, 'I’ll say it whenever I want to! Daisy! Dai-' Making a short deft movement, Tom Buchanan broke her nose with his open hand.” (Page 37). Since Tom is being defensive of Daisy, it shows us that she is worth a lot to Tom and others.

She wants attention.

When Gatsby is mentioned to Daisy in chapter 1, she responds with, "'Gatsby?' demanded Daisy. 'What Gatsby?' (11) It seems that she doesn't want to talk about Gatsby or just forgot about him, as if he doesn't matter. It is mentioned that Daisy and Gatsby have met in the past. 
2. In chapter 5 when Nick asks Daisy to come over, he tells her to not bring Tom. She responds to this by being oblivious or clueless by saying "Who is 'Tom'?" (83) She doesn't seem very dedicated anymore since she pretends to not know who Tom is.
3. When Daisy is over Gatsby's, she is very emotional. It seems that she wants to be there and is cynical from everything she observes in his house.
4. In chapter 6, Daisy and Gatsby dance together at his party. Gatsby thinks that Daisy didn't have fun at the party. I believe that Daisy won't speak her mind because she probably does not want to be with Tom anymore since it seems they're distant and Daisy won't admit that.]]> 2018-02-28 15:31:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sspada31952/bqogmnq1qrw0/wish/236452623
