Lack of Love

Love has no happy ending, because love doesn’t end. But if it has a bad ending then it’s not love at all. There is no possible way to be unhappy and in love. This sounds a lot like Scrooge in The Christmas Carol and Montag in Fahrenheit 451. They were unhappy and lost their loves in interesting ways.

Scrooge was supposedly in love with a girl. They were in love since they were teenagers. Since Scrooge got interested in money instead of her she left so it wasn’t true love. Montag thought he loved Mildred but he wanted to love Mildred. He didn’t love her because they had different beliefs. She liked the government and Montag was starting to go against it. They both thought they loved someone but once they were out of their lives, they didn't seem to miss them as much as they thought they did.

They both had lost they’re wives to money and then fire. Another difference is Scrooge loved something other than his wife instead of Montag who just was uninterested in her. Also Montag wanted to love Mildred and he tried to, but you can't force yourself to someone. Scrooge just didn’t care about his wife after he was addicted to collecting money.

When you don’t have love in your life you are not happy. Love is hard to figure out but once your find who you love, it's easy to understand.
