Elizabeth Henderson Groundhog Day

Throughout the film, my main character was struggling with monotony, he was not willing to deal with the same thing year after year. However, a majority of the movie was based on the same day occurring over and over again. It took the main character a few days to get the idea that his life was going to be different and for him to be stuck in time relining the same day! The main character finally realizes that he must make the best of what he has, must live in the situation that he was put into. He knows that he is not able to change what has happened nor can he change the future, he is not GOD. What I do not understand is why he was so willing to hurt those around him just so he could have transcendent emotions of the flesh. Even though he knew that they cared about him, he was still only willing to give his time to those who would fulfill those emotions of the flesh. This is portrayed the most when he finds a woman in the diner and finds out stuff about her, and then the next day wanted to sleep with her. When he found a woman that he could have true feelings for then he just treated her like she was only there for physical needs. It takes him a very long time to have real feelings for the people around him.
