But even though he wanted to call out to his neighbor, Nick did not because it seemed like Mr. Gatsby wanted to be alone. Nick recalls how Mr. Gatsby "gave a sudden intimation that he was content to be alone—he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way". This made Nick not call out to him.
