                      In Chris" situation, i could relate to it because my parents used to be that strict to where i would think of moving out. How i would just obey all their rules and think how they are right when sometimes they are not. I feel like that is how my brother felt too because after he turned 19 he was done with all of my moms shit so he decided to move out without telling anyone so i feel like he relates more to Chris than me. The difference between Chris and my brother is that my brother would tell me his issues but Chris would not. And now I'm in my brothers situation wanting to move out but the only thing that is stopping me is that i am still in high school. The reason why i would just leave is because my parents always think that they are right all the time and every time they yell, it gives me the worst anxiety.

Quote: " I don't recollect Alex ever talking about any girlfriends" (Krakauer 65).

Based of this quote, it shows that Alex did not have any relation with any girl. I feel like this ties back with his family issues when he was younger when his dad had two separate families and separate kids but was open about it. Due to this, i feel like Alex was close to himself and separated from everyone else. Later on throughout the book, it talked about how Alex would get with a girl while he was drunk. I think that he would use stimulants to not be himself so he would get a girl. Because he did not have any relation with any girls or tried to have any relation with his parents, it led him to not carry a relationship with his co workers but a relationship with nature and the wilderness. And after high school he was not sexually active with any girl but also how he was not interested with and men. Alex never mention having any relation to any girl but also showed no interest to having any relation to any co worker.
