Nick is initially fascinated and intrigued by Gatsby's charisma and mysterious persona. He finds Gatsby to be an enigmatic figure who exudes an aura of wealth and sophistication, yet remains shrouded in secrecy and intrigue. Nick is both impressed and wary of Gatsby's larger-than-life presence.

Considering that in the book it describes that Nick gives everyone a chance, he was first very interested in Gatsby. Throughout the novel, Nick becomes somewhat frustrated with Gatsby and even thinks he's annoying perhaps. By the end of The Great Gatsby, he feels sorry for Gatsby because only his father shows up for his funeral and burial.

"He smiled understandingly-much more than understandingly. It was one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life. It faced--or seemed to face--the whole external world for an instant, and then concentrated on you with an irresistible prejudice in your favor. It understood you just as far as you wanted to be understood, believed in you as you would like to believe in yourself, and assured you that it had precisely the impression of you that, at your best, you hoped to convey."

He thought he was a good guy, but had unrealistic hope that one day he we get Daisy.

He was never truly sure who Gatsby was. He had heard some much about him from different people. He never truly knew who he was, but he knew he had a crazy gift for hope.
