Bell Jar 7-8

What does Esther want from Constantin? How does he react, and what are we to make of this reaction?

In this chapter Esther meets Constantin who is a proper man. Bascially the only reason she wants him at first is to sleep with him. Esther wants to get back at Buddy for all pain he has caused her by sleeping with another women. Esther starts to like Constantin and wants to sleep with him after she went to dinner and the UN thing. They go back to the apartment and Esther decides that she wants Constantin to seduce her. So she goes in the bed to lay down and finds Constantin coming to. All they end up doing is talk and fall asleep together but not anything special. I think that Constantin is a good man that doesn't want to give up this relationship for sex. I think Esther found a good man.
