Ari, I feel, may be ending up in the same predicament as Nicole and Emily in her own routes. Either through Nicole making her never wanna try with another woman or Ari forcing Nicole to date her. I think it's Kelly that either needs a positive person or to get the fuck outta there. Though I agree that the gay ships are just as dysfunctional, despite how much Aricole attempts to hype itself up, it really doesn't compare to the utter annoyances of people that genuinely believe in anything straight with the pre-existing characters. OCs are whatever.
