The Sun Also Rises: Chapter VI~Reality TV?

This passage sort of reminded me of a reality TV show. Robert and Frances continue to fight about their trivial problems and relationship, which isn't working out. This same argument could be viewed in over half of the reality TV shows out there today. Just the other day, my sister was watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians and one of the girls on the TV was having a similar problem with her husband/boyfriend. Frances broadcasts her relationship issues to anyone and everyone who is around, which is the definition of reality TV shows, in my opinion. This part of the book is a little confusing with the different relationship issues of Robert and Jacob. Are Robert and Frances going to get married, or did this fight pretty much ruin that idea? What is Jacob going to do about his loneliness and feelings about Brett?
