Gatsby turned out all right at the end… Maybe he turned out all right to Nick. Maybe Gatsby escaped his sad life. He felt sorry for him, I think.
What preyed on Gatsby was his death and his abandonment by Daisy – floated in the wake of his dreams – his dreams being his Gatsby self and his romantic, nostalgic, unrealistic dreams of being with Daisy – Temporarily closed out my interest in the abortive sorrow and short-winded elations of men

So what preyed on Gatsby made nick uninterested in the abortive(unfinished) sorrows(sadness) and short-winded(not very long) elations(optimisms) of men.

Gatsby End

The ending to Gatsby will end up sad. Gatsby will kind of get that Daisy doesn’t want him but he will ignore it and stay persistent. Daisy will continue her life with Tom and he will love her in a different way because Myrtle has died and Daisy had an affair. Nick will be lost still ……………….it will end on a very melancholy note and make the world feel hopeless …
