Round Character

Jake Barnes is a round character. He is very complex just as real human beings are. He loves someone who says their relationship could never work out. He experiences happiness, jealousy, anger, excitement, and boredom. These are all feelings that humans experience every day. The key to creating characters is making them as realistic as possible. He has a job and he has many friends. Jake was in the war and he was wounded. He enjoys bullfights and he is catholic. Real people have religious beliefs (even if they do not believe in religion that is their belief), they have hobbies, jobs, and friends. They enjoy some activities and hate others. They love some people and dislike others. Somebody could tell me the story was based off of a real person named Jake Barnes and I would believe them.
