Scarletｔ O’Ｈaｒa is ａ rｅalｉst ａｎｄ vｅry seｌfish.

We can ｓee it ｆrom her attitｕde tｏwards marrｉａｇe and liｆe. A. Ｓcａrleｔｔ’ｓ attitudｅ towａｒds mａｒｒiage
Ｔｏ Scarｌett, loｖe is ｎot the fｏｕndaｔioｎ of ｍａrｒiaｇe. She ｍarｒｉes with men jｕｓt in oｒder to get ｍｏney oｒ to resolve tｈe living prｏblemｓ. She aｌｗays tried to maｎiｐｕlate ｔｈe ｐｅoplｅ ｗho ｌｏve her anｄ never cａre about their feｅlｉngｓ. At ｆｉｒst ｓhe ｍａrried Charles who was Mｅlanie’s ｂrotｈer， jｕｓt ｗanｔ to hｕrt Asｈley. Anｄ bｅsides, Cｈarlｅs could give heｒ greaｔ houｓe ａnd bｅautiｆul ｃａrriage, ｗhicｈ wｏｕld make oｔｈer gｉｒls eｎｖy heｒ. When Charles ｄead, ｓhe dｉdn’t feｅl heartｂrｏken, ｓｈe’ｓ uｎｈａppｙ ｊuｓｔ ｂecause she caｎ’ｔ dance ｗｉｔh oｔher boyｓ. When Tａra faced the dangｅr of bｅｉｎｇ bought ａway ｂｙ the oｔheｒs, sｈｅ lurｅs her sistｅr’ｓ ｌover Fｒank and mａrrｉｅs him. Sｈe dｉdｎ’t ｃaｒｅ about heｒ sｉster’ｓ fｅelings ａｎd only ｗants to ｐaｙ the taｘ． Ａfｔer the Franｋ’ｓ death, sｈｅ saｉd to Rhetｔ： moneｙ doeｓ heｌp， yｏu knｏw, Rｈett， ａｎd ｇod ｋnows Ｆrank dｉdn’ｔ ｌeａve any tｏo ｍuch． Ｔhen, she ｍaｒried Rheｔｔ, for this， ｓhe ｄｉdn’t need ｔo worry abouｔ ｔｈe ｍoneｙ aｎd cｏuld havｅ ａ bｅtter ｌife. Aftｅｒ their ｍaｒrｉage， Rｈett loｖes heｒ and dotｅs on hｅr. He giｖes her ａll suｐports he can. Ｈｅ ｅncｏurａgｅs her to sｈuｎ ｓocial ｃｕstｏm and givｅs her ｍoｎey to staｒｔ her own businesｓ, bｕｔ Ｓｃaｒlett neveｒ lｏveｓ him back. B. Scarlett attitudｅ towarｄs liｆe
Sｃａrlｅtt ｉs a ｈybrid ｗｈo exhibitｓ mｏrｅ of her Ｉrｉsh fａthｅr’s ｈard-headeｄnｅsｓ tｈａn hｅr motｈeｒ’s rｅfinｅd ｓｏuthern ｍanners. Before tｈe waｒ, she ｌｉved a riｃh and ｃｏｍｆｏrt ｌｉfe in tｈe Ｓouth. Scarlｅtt is a daｒk-haｉｒｅｄ, green-ｅyeｄ bｅａuｔy but ｉs weｌl ｓpｏｉleｄ． Ｗhereｖｅr shｅ goes， shｅ waｎts to be the ｃｅnｔｅr. She sees all ｔhe ｇｉrls as enemiｅs ａnｄ ｂｅlｉeveｓ eｖｅｒy mａn arouｎd ｔhe viｌlage must fall ｉn lovｅ with her and ｓhe caｎ’ｔ endure the ｔalk witｈout a toｐic oｆ hｅr. Ｄurｉng thｅ wａr, shｅ dｉdn’ｔ ｍind the sucｃeｓs ｏｒ failurｅ ｏｆ ｔhe ｗａr, ｏr ｔｈｅ deａth ｏｆ soliｄeｒ． Ｓhe ｏｎlｙ cared aｂoｕt dancｅ ａnd Asｈｌey． Aｔ the hoｓpｉtal， she hated tｈe smelｌ ａnd didn’t waｎt to ｔaｋe caｒｅ of the solders． Aｆter the wａｒ, shｅ bｅcame a seｌfisｈ aｎd gｒeedy capitaliｓt. She employｅd ｐrisoｎeｒs to worｋ ｆ
ｏｒ ｈer ｆor lｅsｓ eｘpendｉｔｕre but ｍoｒｅ profｉｔ. Shｅ senｔ ouｔ her money ａs a ｌｏaｎ anｄ ｔradeｄ with ｂlack meｎ foｒ money and sｈe even cleaned ｕp the money from ｗｉdoｗs. Sｈe didn’t ｃare ａ sｎaｐ for Rｈett’s advｉce and said: iｔ is mｏrｅ eａｓｉｌｙ to eａrn mｏnｅｙ fｒom the poor peｏplｅ.
CｈａｐｔｅrⅡ Thｅ unyｉelding Scａrｌett
Though Sｃarｌｅｔt has a ｌｏt of shorｔcomings, shｅ is stiｌl very attractive. Heｒ ａttitudｅ towardｓ love， life anｄ ｈer loyalty to Tara ｍirｒｏrs heｒ peｒsｅｖｅraｎce， hｅr bｒａve and her self-tｒust. Iｆ ｓhe desｉreｄ ｆｏr sｏmethｉng， she ｗouｌd do as ｍucｈ as she could ｔo achieve it． Sｈe never saｉd givｅ up and believｅd sｈe has the abiｌitｙ to fix alｌ tｈe prｏbleｍs. Ｉf shｅ believｅd ｓomething is rigｈt, sｈｅ wｏuld insist ｏn it and didn’ｔ care the floatinｇ ｒumors. Ｔｈe unｙieldinｇ Scaｒｌeｔｔ’s ｄevelopmｅnt mirｒors the develoｐmｅnｔ ｏｆ the sｏuｔｈ, sｈe adaｐｔs wondｅrfｕlｌy ｔo tｈe ｈarsh and ｏpporｔunistｉｃ wｏrld of ｔhe nｅw south, anｄ sｈe saved Taｒａ and ｈａd her own miｌl.

1． Scarlｅtt’s loｖe to Ashｌey
Because of her atｔitude ｔowards maｒriage， peｏｐle sａy Scａrlｅｔt didn’t uｎderstand the truth oｆ love. Howeｖer, ｉｎ ｍy ｏpinion, shｅ ｉs the one wｈo rｅalｌｙ undｅｒstand whａt lｏｖe iｓ. Ｌoｖe is selｆlesｓ. Ｓhe lovｅs Ashley anｄ ｔrｉeｓ heｒ bｅsｔ to ｈelp ｈim ．She dｉdn’t mｉnd his inｄｉfｆerence anｄ tａke care of hｉm. Love iｓ sｅｌfneｓｓ, ｓhe wａｎts tｏ havｅ Ashleｙ, and so she hates Melanｉe ａnｄ wanｔs her die. Love is the moｔiｖａtion of life, when ｓｈe is hｅｌpless， she would thiｎk aboｕt Ashｌeｙ anｄ ｇａiｎ tｈe courａge to sｏlve ｐｒobleｍs. She uｎｄerstａnｄs lｏve, strives ｆoｒ lｏｖe， ａnd ｌives for life. Piｔiｆullｙ, hｅｒ lｏve is blindnesｓ; ｓｈe ｌｏｖｅｓ the wrong ｐeｒsｏn and ｍade ｈer
