Chapters 1-6

Initially I felt really bad for Rob. He seems to have a lot of girl trouble and Laura left him. But towards the end my opinion started to change a little. Especially at the very end when the friend, Liz, only went to the pub to call him a jerk or something. So now I’m assuming that he did something bad that we will find out about later. I think his obsession with music and top ten lists is funny and works for him since he doesn’t really have a great life. I think he needs something like music, it seems to help him get through his breakups. As Rob’s mom says, almost all of his adult girlfriends leave him. And I think it’s partially because of what we talked about in class. Rob cares so much that it ends up working against him and freaking out or bothering the girlfriend so much that she leaves him. Right now, I don’t really sympathize with him anymore. I would think that he would be able to figure out what he was doing wrong by now. I still like his character, and I don’t really know why, I guess I’m hoping that he will be able to change and figure himself out and keep a girlfriend for more then a couple of years.
