The Glass Menagerie 3

"In all respects--believe me! Your eyes--your hair--are pretty! Your hands are pretty!" -pg. 1283

When I was reading this part, I felt like I was in the middle of a love story. Jim was being sweet towards Laura and seemed interested in her. He even kissed her. However, when he said he was married, I became furious. Typical girl reaction, I know. But then what was the point of this story that got my hopes up that just ended in another guy leaving Laura's life? I believe the point was to show Laura's strength that the rest of her family doesn't have. Tom ends up leaving just like his father. Amanda tries to deal with her husband leaving her by pushing Laura towards dating many men. Laura seems to be the opposite of her exterior.
