When I was much younger, I was a huge tomboy and loved to play sports. My best friends were all boys, and although I loved playing sports and hated princesses, I always felt a little sad that I was left out of the whole girl dynamic. I was very comfortable in who I was, but I always felt a little out of place in that I wasn’t always invited to girls birthday parties, or to sleepovers. This relates to Ari because Ari is starting to realize that he doesn’t fit into the “classic mold” of being a boy, but he is still comfortable in who he is. Ari is happy being an introvert, and although he realizes that he is different, he is content. I might have been very different when I was younger, but I stayed true to who I was, and it bettered my future. I am not trying to pretend to be something that I am not, and that has led to a very enjoyable life. Like myself, Ari will be able to accept who he is and be proud of it. This will let Ari lead a life where he doesn’t have to hide behind a fake persona and he will be able to express himself
