Of+Mice+and+Men+conflict

In this story, George is conflicted with many situations that Lennie gets him into. Throughout the story, Lennie always is doing something wrong. In Weeds, they get ran out of the town because Lennie was accused of "molesting" a lady but touching his dress too many times. Then when they were on their way to the new barn, Lennie is becoming obsessive of the mouse, and how smooth the hair was. Then when Curley's wife comes into the picture, Geroge has to make sure Lennie doesn't do anything, because Curley already doesn't like him, and will directly send them off the farm. In the end of the book, Lennie killed Curley's wife and George has no other choice then to shoot him.

George also has a conflict with himself because he wants to leave Lennie, but he can't because he knows Lennie can't survive by himself. George knows that if he leaves Lennie, he could have a great life. He could be a very successful man and he could be very wealthy, but he can't bring himself to leave Lennie in the unforgiving, not understanding world by himself.
