Based on what we have learned about Gatsby and Daisy, it is unlikely that their future together will be a happy one. Despite Gatsby's love for Daisy and his efforts to win her back, the divide between their social classes and their differing views of the past will continue to pose significant challenges to their relationship. Daisy's tendency to prioritize wealth and social status over love suggests that she may ultimately choose to remain with Tom Buchanan, leaving Gatsby heartbroken once again. Additionally, Gatsby's idealized version of Daisy and his inability to accept the reality of who she has become may lead to further disappointment and disillusionment for both of them. Ultimately, the novel seems to suggest that their future together is doomed by the constraints of their society and their own flawed perceptions.
