Chapter 8: Is Gene and Finny's relationship one sided or is it reciprocal. Support with quote

By chapter 8, the relationship just becomes awkward rather than one sided. Gene may be energized by Finny's return, but he enjoys himself less after Finny returns because of the constant reminder of guilt that Finny is for Gene. "Each morning reasserted the problems of the night before," says Gene; previous, it was easy for him to deny what had happened, and now he does not have that luxury. This feeling is not necessarily a negative one, as Gene believes it to be; it is a part of Gene coming to terms with his darker nature, which he will try desperately not to do.
