Fyodor

I think Fyodor has more feelings than I originally thought. After the fight he had with Dmitry about the woman, he showed that he really did love this girl. Maybe not for the right reasons, but he did love her. Although Fyodor gets angry and lies to make a scene, Dostoevsky reveals that it’s not all fun and games for Fyodor; the things people say really do hurt him. He might not the best person in the world, but he is still a person with feelings. I think he carries on the way he does because that’s the only way he knows how to express emotion and let people know how he feels. And now he’s act that way so long, he doesn’t know how to change. He goes above and beyond and is obnoxious because he doesn’t know what else to do; he knows he humiliates himself by his ramblings. When he returned to the monastery to have dinner with the Father Superior, he only did it so he could feel like he wasn’t making a fool out of himself.
