* IJustWantToBeLoved: She is almost as bad as '''Jeffery''' in this regards. After coming out of the closet, Ari decides that she is ready to pursue a relationship and makes the mistake of trying her luck with [[AlphaBitch Nicole]] first. This would lead to one of two routes that highlights Ari's desperate desire for a girlfriend:
** If Nicole agrees to go out with Ari, Nicole would [[spoiler:spend the next month emotionally abusing Ari]], who puts up with it as Ari believes that there are no other girls at school who would be interested in dating her due to IncompatibleOrientation. [[note]]Technically not entirely true, as Jecka, Kelly, and Emily are at least implied to be bisexual and have expressed different levels of attraction towards Ari throughout the various routes of ''Re-Up''.[[/note]] That route ends with [[spoiler:Ari breaking-up with Nicole and dating Hunter afterwards despite not being attracted to him since she still wanted affection]].
** If Nicole rejects Ari, Nicole half-jokingly suggest that Ari sext every girl at school to see if one of them would be willing to date Ari. In her desperation, Ari actually followed through with Nicole's advise. Unfortunately, doing as Nicole said seem to have hurt Ari's chances of getting a girlfriend. Jecka admits to liking the picture but seemly rejects Ari out of principle since Ari did send nude images of herself to half the school, and it is implied this is a sentiment that is shared with the other girls who might have been interested. Ari's desperation reaches it's lowest point at the conclusion of this route, when Ari [[spoiler:blackmail Nicole into a relationship or else Nicole would receive that blame for Coach Colby's Straight Club burning down Ari's home]].

** For all of Nicole's talk of being a sociopath who hates (almost) everyone and roots for the world to end, there are heavy implications that it's a defense mechanism she developed due to childhood trauma, and that at the end of the day, she's just a lonely teenage girl who wants some friends. She's too prideful to ever truly allow herself the self reflection needed to grow as a person, but there are several moments where Nicole realizes she was too caustic or cruel and seems genuinely remorseful of her behavior, like when she first snapped at Ari or if she socially sacrifices Jecka to her brother.
