The Great Gatsby - Chapter 2

Tom and Nick go to New York City to visits Tom's girl. Nick asks Tom about what his girl's husband thinks and he tells him that he thinks she's just visiting her sister. Myrtle buys a puppy while they are in the city. They go to Myrtle's apartment to drink and smoke. Nick leaves and when he comes back the other two are gone. Nick decides to read a book called Simon Called Peter. Myrtle then invites her sister and the neighbors over and they talk about her marriage. They aslo talk about Tom and Daisy's marriage.
Question: Why would they go to the city to be together then talk about their marriages?
Comment: I think Nick feels like a third wheel.
