Caring?

"You have never really been here. I do not think that you have ever lied to me, but I know that you have never told me the told- why?" (p.137).

The quote shows the disgust that Giovanni has with the narrator, however, the narrators tendencies of not seeming like he cares may be based on his past and his inability of being accepted. People's past experiences can have a large influence on their future, whether it be the individuals that they associated themselves with or the treatment they received from those around them. Also, the same goes for Giovanni who thinks otherwise, but he may be in fact wrong also. No one knows how an individual exactly feels besides the individual themselves. This is where conflicting personalities and backgrounds may come back to cause a conflict among people and cause relationships to crumble.
