Godfrey is a push-over, basically. He got involved with a
woman for a brief instance and ended up getting her pregnant, marrying her, and hence
destroying his possibilities with the person whom he is wished to marry,
Nancy.
He lets his brother Dunsley toy him around and
actually pays the consequences for his brother's actions just as long as Dunsley doesn't
tell his Dad about his bad marriage choice.
He also lacks
initiative. He would like to be in charge of his father's property and manage it, but he
lacks the discipline and the courage. He also is very easily led, as he is following
Dunsley's bad habits of drinking and gambling to the point of hurting the family
finances.
This is basically the problem with Godfrey: Lack
of gumption and tremendous co-dependence.
