Gatsby had full intentions of going through with a relationship with Daisy - it was the basis for his entire life. However, for Daisy it was nothing more than a fling. She never intended to leave Tom. Maybe when they first met she had real feelings, but as far as the setting for the book is concerned, she led him on the entire time.

Why doesn't Fitzgerald ever show Daisy and Gatsby alone?

Fitzgerald never portrays a scene with only Gatsby and Daisy because Nick Carraway, Daisy's cousin, is the narrator of this novel. Such a scene would be impossible to portray since the narrator would have to be present and this would undermine the idea of "Daisy and Gatsby alone".Yet, although the narrator is not present when Daisy and Gatsby are alone such scenes are implied in the narration. A few examples:Nick leaves Gatsby and Daisy alone when Gatsby first requests that Nick invite Daisy over to tea so Gatsby and Daisy could reunite. When Nick comes back, he describes how Gatsby "literally glowed; without a word or a gesture of exultation a new well-being radiated from him and filled the little room", which is followed shortly with a description of Daisy's voice as "full of aching, grieving beauty, told only of her unexpected joy".Towards the end of the novel, when Nick, Tom, and Jordan share a car and Gatsby and Daisy share another one alone (where Daisy hits Myrtle Wilson, Tom's mistress).But, besides, the concrete element of narration standing in the obstacle of Daisy and Gatsby only scenes, the absence of such scenes can also be interpreted as another element of this romance.At the end of Chapter 6, after Gatsby described how his relationship with Daisy first blossomed when they were young, Nick says that "I was reminded of something--an elusive rhythm, a fragment of lost words, that I had heard somewhere a long time ago...but they made no sound, and what I had almost remembered was uncommunicable forever".This is a very interesting quote in how it shows that the height of Gatsby and Daisy's relationship lingers in their past. We are only presented with their brilliant young love, but never with scenarios of their love in the "present", as you pointed out. Nick's quote epitomizes this idea of their relationship lingering in the past with the rhythm and words from a long time ago that make no sound in the present. This is a very plausible interpretation, but one can argue about why Fitzgerald chooses to do this with a variety of other conjectures.

Why is nick a little disappointed with Gatsby?

Gatsby is nervous because he wants Nick to agree to his plan of inviting Daisy over for tea. Nick tells Gatsby that he will help him. Gatsby offer him the chance to make money by joining him in some business he does on the side— that does not involve Meyer Wolfsheim. Nick is slightly offended that Gatsby wants to pay him for arranging the meeting with Daisy and refuses Gatsby’s offer, but still helps with the plan.

When did Nick start keeping record of who went Gatsby's parties and what did he write it on?

I'm assuming that it's because Fitzgerald is trying to make a severe contrast between the ridiculously large amount of people who attended Gatsby's parties and the pathetically small number of people who attended Gatsby's funeral. This contrast is likely made for the purpose of proving the shallowness of the upper class who, while they enjoyed the fabulous wealth and prestige that Gatsby possessed, found him worthless to themsevles once he was dead. Subsequently, it shows that "friendships" built on materialism do not last.
