The three stages of Pip's expectations are also stages of hi

These refer to him being unfeeling as he could not see that these comments were unkindly. .
             Estella brings about changes in him; he is no longer contented at being at the forge. He does not consider Joe's companionship as anything very important and most of all he is completely dissatisfied with his place in life and his future. .
             When Pip receives the news that he is to come into money, he becomes patronising towards Biddy, accuses her of being "envious and grudging," and talks in a "Virtuous and superior tone." When he asks Biddy to improve Joe and she does not think that that is necessary. He began to regain a little warmth when he cried and was sorry for the way he had behaved but obviously not enough to make him go home and rectify what he had done. All the guilt he felt was soon forgotten when he reached London. He became frivolous using his money carelessly not realising the consequences. Pip began to feel increasingly superior towards Joe, and became easily influenced by others around him. He did not go and visit Joe on returning to Satis House because he felt that to be below him and because he thought that Miss Havisham "would be contemptuous of him." While Pip was in debt a friend advised him to spend even more money to join a club called the Finches, which would swallow up even more money, and he would gain nothing for it. This shows once again a person who has a weak mind. .
             His friendship with Herbert was solid and they showed this by each being able to tell each other things they were unable to tell anyone else. Such as when Estella was plaguing Pip's mind he told Herbert about it and he tried to help. The same thing applied when Herbert was able to tell Pip about Clara. Pip showed that he was still compassionate when he realised what he was doing to Herbert and tried to resolve it. He saw that he was the cause of Herbert's debt and so he tried to help him, he wanted for his "own good fortune to reflect some rays upon him.
