Pechorin

When Pechorin is telling the narrator of his boredom with Bela I was very taken back by his non chalant, cest la vie type of attitude. He seemed as if once again he was having a pity party for himself being very selfish and taking the time to mourn the death of the woman that he supposedly loved. I lost a lot of respect for Pechorin at this point in the novel because I interpreted his reaction as a pretty selfish one and even though I took into consideration that this might be the way in which he deals with misfortune and death in his life i still could not find it in my heart to feel any pity or empathy/sympathy with Pechorin. I also noticed thath the Narrator has a very much less judgemental view on things than Pechorin does and it is almost as if Pechorin is a role model or an idol in a way to the Narrator.
