In this context, consider the following passage regarding Nick's feelings about these gatherings:

“I was looking forward to seeing Gatsby, for I had not been invited but was encouraged to listen by my friend Jordan Baker, who whispered to me that Gatsby wanted to befriend me. Yet, as I entered, the jingle of laughter and the clinking of glasses painted a picture of opulence that felt distant, almost overwhelming.”
