Driven by loneliness, the creature seeks a companion so as to finally feel accepted which would supposedly stop his hatred towards society and impulses of revenge. Possibly Frankenstein owes him this as most of the blame of this gloomy story can be placed on his shoulders. He did abandon his creation from his birth and did nothing to stop the creature from going out into the world alone. Untaught and abandoned, the creature did try to be good, but his creator could possibly be blamed for his rage against society.

However, if the creature's mate were to reject him, he would feel a spurn greater than ever before. Furthermore, the creature, with no companion of any kind at the beginning of his life, states that he chooses "rage and revenge" (121). That is to say that his feelings are directly affected by lack of love. However, the cause of his feelings is a result of the rejection he had just found in the De Lacey family. If a woman made for love, instead hated the creature, he would not be able to handle it. Thus unleashing an attack on the world, focusing on Frankenstein’s family of course, that no one could have predicted. As to Frankenstein’s duty to his creature, he has already missed his opportunity to serve this duty at the beginning of his life when his creation truly needed him. The creature and the situation is simply too unpredictable to warrant action from Frankenstein. Instead, he must focus on his duty towards mankind to stop any further destruction caused by the hands of his creations. This can only be done in part by not creating a second monster for the world to deal
