As somebody who was extremely naive as a child and basically survived off of trying to please everyone, this hits so close to home, especially when Rowley tried to show Greg his superhero and laughed and said it needed to be "edgier." I like writing and drawing, but my siblings always respond with indifference and think that's good enough because they're not yelling, and two of my siblings are especially rude to me about what I love.

I think that Greg’s behavior is also affected by the bullying he’s been subjected by at the hands of his older brother. While I don’t condone Greg’s behavior, it would only be fair to add Roderick’s influence to this analysis.

Yeah, Greg has done some majorly questionable stuff. But honestly, it's hard to be all that mad at him since most of the people around him are even worse. Take, for example, the part of the first book when Greg was the cartoonist for the school paper. Mr. Ira changed all the dialogue to a mockery of everything Creighton the Cretin stood for. But when Greg refused to let himself be used like that, Mr. Ira switched to running Zoo Wee Mama, completely unaltered. And there was no explanation given for why Rowley's comic was unscathed. It may have been that Greg was just "conveniently" leaving the reason out, but I'm pretty sure that if was that Mr. Ira had learned his lesson, Greg would have at least mentioned an attempt to make amends (possibly interpreting it as insincere and declining). But no, it seems this teacher was just being selective of whose art he disrespects.

I just realized that Rodrick is the least insane of the Heffley brothers. Yeah, he's a bully and a punk, but that's it. Greg is a sociopath, and Manny's just a full-on psycho.

They were good until Long Haul. Nowadays Kinney often jumps the shark, and it's pretty obvious that he's trying to stretch the series as long as possible.

Y'all, you can't be forgetting about how Greg's family isn't so great either. His older brother tortures him while his younger brother bosses him around. His dad constantly feels embarrassed of Greg. Even the PIG pushes Greg around. The only one who actually really cares about Greg is Helen, but she's usually busy dealing with everyone else's shenanigans. Sure, dude's seriously got some work to do, but he has a heart. Maybe if his family was more supportive of him, he'd have learned how to really treat his friends. In the end, Rowley is Greg's only friend. Dude is probably such a narcissistic jerk because no one had really ever shown him true affection except for Rowley. In conclusion, I have hope for Greg. Who knows? He could really change, and it'd be great to see him turn over a new leaf. I believe in second chances, don't you?

CoolDisneyGamer yeah but pretty much everyone is bullied at some point in their lives but those people are jerks to their best friend

No wonder all the girls like Rowley tbh I did too he's funny, he understands the girls, he's extroverted, and he is a nice kid overall. and Greg is stuck up, antisocial, tries to be manly but it never works out, takes out his anger and failures on Rowley, he keep on laughing at others, he doesn't accept anyone unless there is something in it for him. so ofc he would be the unpopular kid.

"He made sure people knew how seemingly how good of a guy he really was" Also Greg: *Got his "best friend" kicked out of safety patrol by tormenting kids and not taking the fall while thinking HE was DOING THE RIGHT THING* *Ruined an entire school play because he refused to sing of all things* *Tried to brag about breaking his "best friend's" arm* (This is just the first book the list goes on)

When I was 8 and reading the first books I noticed that he, Greg always lies. And makes everyone seem against him, or threat they are wrong. And I finally noticed how much of a bully to Rowely and Craig.

I don’t think Greg is a sociopath. He feels empathy for others and he has done some good things. We gotta remember he’s in middle school. Regardless how you wanna spin, Greg looks up to Rodrick (who bullies Greg) and Greg bullies Rowley (who looks up to him). Greg’s parents let Rodrick bully Greg and when he is punished it’s usually a slap on the wrist while Manny gets all the praise and attention. Greg acts this way because he’s bullied by someone he looks up to and he knows Rowley looks up to him in a way so he does the same.

Well, I just read the book. And I gotta say, Rodrick is an absolute SAINT in comparison to Greg.

The book goes into some darker themes but people keep looking at Greg and Rowley as grown adults. Greg may be acting LIKE a sociopath, but he's still a middle schooler.

Not sure if he’s a sociopath but I think you’ve got a point. Maybe the author is talking about what it’s like to have a toxic friend and how someone could be so blind to it especially in middle school where everyone wants to be accepted (it literally happened to me in 7th and 8th grade)

Jeff Kinney is an amazing author. It’s like he’s secretly preparing kids for the real world, so they can just connect. It’s a deep series and the disguise of a kid’s book is absolutely amazing.

The difference between the books and (animated) movies is Greg and Rowley’s friendship. In the first book Greg said he doesn’t want to be friends with Rowley quoting “Rowley is my best friend, but that’s a subject to change”, but in the (animated) movies, Greg is happy that Rowley is his friend and even saids “I’m glad I’m not alone in this thing”

Ok, now we need to see Greg in the point of view of Holly Hills.

Greg left Rowly in the middle of the woods with a sprained ankle edit: and Rowly couldn’t he walk

My Last Entry I’m sick of it. Greg has taken advantage of me for way too long, I broke into Dad’s gun safe and took his Revolver... Chirag, Bryce, Holly, and Fregley are apparently “sick with the flu”. Tomorrow’s the day, Greg..... a person who I treated as a friend had tortured me for the last decade of my life..... I hope you have a nice day at school, Greg... -Slick (This comment is inspired by another)

I personally think Greg's actions are a mix of teenager and his upbringing. He was bullied all his life, and he wants a vessel to take out all that pent up anger he must feel after being bullied for so long by Rodrick and not being able to do anything about it. That's kind of how I turned out.

I’m pretty sure in the snippet, Rowley knows how inept his family is, but chooses to be an idiot so Greg doesn’t have to deal with the stress he already has

About him being a "sociopath," I think that's just a middle-schooler who is exceptionally good at being an asshole. All teens, including the best ones, usually develop this skill eventually.

What would make for a GREAT series is if Greg is the villain of his own story (in the words of another commenter "Elongated man Forever). But it would be even better if he becomes less of a sociopath throughout the series, instead of the entire series being about a flat arced mindless book about a middle school sociopath. (edit below). Edit: If Kinney followed Rowley's POV series, he should make his arc be about either claiming "independence" from Greg or finally having Greg accept him for who he is. If done right, that would be a happy-cry resolution to the dark undertone of this book series. Kinney not only developed this book for 12 year olds like me, but also deep messages for adults. Amazing series!

I think it would be cool to see greg as an adult reading his old Diaries and see what thinks about it

Greg can’t be happy unless everyone else is brought down to his level, physically and emotionally. Everyone he deems undesirable is portrayed in an unflattering way, including his own best friend. Greg’s the kind of kid you see and think “yeah he probably needs therapy”

Makes sense how manipulative Greg is. His father's a dead beat, his mom I can't remember much of because I don't read the books much but have checked out some valid theories but if memory serves she's a bit of a negative mom stereotype, Rodrick is a bit of a bully (but still the best person in the house), and Manny is a psychopath who knowingly endangered his family for his own benefit.

I like how he draws himself differently than how Greg draws him Because of Shape theory most protagonists are drawn with circles, And most bitter, rough or sturdy characters are drawn with squares. A lot of dumber characters are also portrayed with that shape but that doesn't matter too much, but when rally draws himself with a circle you can see that he's trying to really portray how he is friendly and nice, and it makes me kind of sad because you can see that he draws Greg with a circle as well. the fact that he draws Greg with a circle, shows that he likes Greg and thinks that Greg is a very good friend.
