As Victor states early on, “I, who had ever been surrounded by amiable companions, continually engaged in endeavoring to bestow mutual pleasure- I was alone” (Pg.44) .She passes right before Victor goes off to college to leave his family. He delays his trip to the university, because he is in extreme physical pain. When victor arrives at the university his studies keep him up from sun up to sun down. These studies keep him isolated from the outside world for weeks on end and even states he forgets what season it is. Victor says, “Every night I was oppressed by a slow fever, and I became nervous to a most painful degree; the fall of a leaf startled me, and I shunned my fellow creatures as if I had been guilty of a crime" (Pg.55).

This relates to both parties by being dedicated to their work more than their personal
