Nick sees her more or less as a happy-go-lucky friend, while Gatsby remains infatuated with her from start to finish. He is blinded by her extravagance and manipulative behavior, to the point that he is unable to see her for who she truly is. E. Ray Canterbery explains, “Gatsby lacks the maturity to realize that Daisy cannot be obtained by money alone and in a vulgar display of conspicuous consumption, flaunts his newfound wealth” (300). Although Daisy initially treats Nick and Gatsby with respect, she shows that once again money and social status come first. At Gatsby's funeral, Nick recalls, “without resentment, that Daisy had not sent a note or a flower” (Fitzgerald 174). By the end of the novel, Nick fully understands who Daisy has become, a reckless and selfish woman. In some cases, Gatsby and Nick's opinions of Daisy are related, such as when Gatsby emphasizes "her voice full of money" (Fitzgerald 96). Nick finally understands. He knew there was something about her that he was missing and Gatsby's observation was exactly what he was looking for. All things considered, Gatsby and Nick don't see Daisy the same way. Gatsby is blinded by his love for her and fails to see her true nature, while Nick gets a front row seat to Daisy's deceitful courtship.
