E-Learning: Who would you want to be friends with in the Flowers for Algernon. Explain your choice.

I would like to be friends with Dr Nemur as I see that he needs friends very badly but he does not seem to notice. I am the kind who is not very sociable and would normally find friends who are less sociable than I am. Dr Nemur is one who cannot socialise well with people and is usually found having grouchy face, making people not like him. Through making friends with him, my laughter and happiness might be able to spread to him and he would live happier everyday. Moreover, I can see that Dr Nemur only aims for money and fame, but not looking for friends, which can be such an important part in one’s life. Therefore, I would look for him and he can continue pursuing his money and fame and have me as his friend as well. In addition, by being his friend, I might be able to change him bit by bit to not just pursue money and fame and pursue a bigger circle of friends to share his weal and woe with.
