Tom and Daisy were at one point in love. But in reality, their relationship is based on money and social status. Tom is only married to Daisy because she is rich and she's quiet. Tom can be the assertive superior man that he feels the need to be and he knows that Daisy wont say anything because shes shy and quiet. Daisy married Tom for his money and to know that she is being taken care of. If Tom is rich as well then she knows all she has to do is sit back and is forced to allow Tom to call the shots on everything. The true relationship of Tom and Daisy is not really based on love, though they were in love at one point, but mainly for materialistic reasons. It was just to get something out of the relationship, they didn't really care that much. Hope that answers your question! :)
