A character that is very unselfish is Razumikhin.He is always looking out for Raskolnikov and his family without ever asking for anything in return.Razumikhin is a true friend but I think Raskolnikov isnt a real friend to him at times.Maybe it is tough love.I think Razumikhin's behavior is foolish because i think he is just trying to make everyone happy and doesnt seem to benefit from it.It is nice to put others' feelings before your own but everyone knows that that isn't really smart.He does get praise from Raskolnikov's mother and sister thoough.
