roofing houses. i forget the other one
In contrast to this close loving relationship with Sodapop is Ponyboy's volatile relationship with his oldest brother, Darry. Pony and Darry are always at odds. Darry gets frustrated because Ponyboy "never thinks" and is always doing things that put the family's living arrangements at risk. Darry is the "father figure" since the death of the boy's parents. If they get into trouble the state agency will separate them. Darry is working two jobs to try to keep the family together and is hard on Ponyboy because he has to be. It isn't until the end of the novel that Ponyboy grows up enough to realize that Darry and he may not ever be close, but Darry really does love him.
Ponyboy and Darry always were disagreeing on things Pony did wrong and Ponyboy and Sodapop got a long because the get eachother.
Darry Curtis, the responsible big brother in The Outsiders, was a hardworking guy with not one, but two jobs to support his family. He worked as a roofer during the day and a gas station attendant at night, all while trying to keep Ponyboy and Soda out of trouble. Talk about burning the candle at both ends!

Darry has a habit of losing his temper. He would beat Dally because he helped Ponyboy and Johnny run from the police. Darry would be mad because Dally didn't tell Darry until after they were gone. Read on and it will help with this answer.
Darry was not really jealous per say. I think the only thing he was jealous about was because the socs have the easy life. Their parents are not only alive, but pay for their schooling such as college. Darry can not have that because he has to work two jobs and support his brothers. Darry had to give up dream of going to college so that why I think he is jealous. As for the ashamed part, Darry had to fight some of his old friends, who are socs. He was probably ashamed because he realizes he might have acted like a stuck up person like the socs when he hung out with them and played football with them. That all came to end when Darry's parents died. So basically Darry might have saw the way he acted before and he does not like what he sees.
