What are the examples in The Great Gatsby where Gatsby tries to fit in a world he doesn't belong?
Gatsby is new money, so his tastes are trying to show off that he is rich. He has a huge mansion, thinks huge lavish parties are fun, and shows off his possessions. The old rich, on the other hand, look down on the new rich. They are more self confident in their wealth, for example, Tom and Daisy's mansion is pushed back and not visible from the road. Daisy does not accept Gatsby because he was not born into the money, and she does not enjoy his parties (she would rather go to tea parties). Gatsby can't fit in with the old rich because he doesn't belong- he is still poor at heart, and the old rich reject him.

Why doesn't Gatsby allow his swimming pool to be drained?
He has not vet used it and does not want to lose hope.j When I thought about it, i viewed it slightly differently. The way I saw it, Gatsby was finally accepting that he and Daisy would never be together. The pool was a metaphor for Gatsby's life. The year was coming to an end, and the Gardener was about to close the pool (A.K.A, Gatsby is about to die). Gatsby stops the Gardener because he has never used his pool and he wants to enjoy it for the first time. (A.K.A, up to this point, Gatsby has spent his entire life chasing after Daisy, and he's never once actually sat down and enjoyed life. He wants to enjoy his life at least once before he dies.)
What do you think is the difference between Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan?

Why did Nick feel awkward at Gatspy's party?
I presume that this is regarding the second party, when Tom and Daisy attended. In the first party he was no more awkward than normal and appeared to enjoy himself. In the second party, however, it is important to remember that Daisy is now having an affair with Gatsby, and has invited her husband to a party given by Gatsby, as such, this is a difficult situation and because Nick knows this, and feel self conscious, the evening is understandably awkward.
What kind people come to Gatsby parties?
Gatsby and Fitzgerald both met vital women to their lives at dances, and both while they were stationed at camps in the army. Gatsby met Daisy at Camp Taylor in Illinois, where they danced and fell in love. However, after Gatsby went off to war, they never got back together again. Fitzgerald met his wife, Zelda, at Camp Sheridan in Alabama. Instead of going off to war (his regiment was ready to go to Europe, but the Armistace came before they could leave the States), he went to New York to get enough money to marry Zelda. In the movie version, Daisy tells Gatsby that "Rich girls don't marry poor boys." This line was taken straight out of Fitzgerald's life. The father of his first love, a young woman by the name of Ginevra King, supposedly told him that after Fitzgerald asked for Ginevra's hand in marriage. There are many other similarities between F. Scott Fitzgerald and Jay Gatz (Gatsby)- keep your eyes out for them!
