Persepolis... A hint of what's to come

Marjane tells of when she starts having trouble with Dr. Heller, and her new boyfriend Enrique. One day he invited her to a party, she didn’t expect to have a good time. While at the party she met Enrique's friend Ingrid. The morning after the party, she wakes up and Enrique was lying there. She immediately jumps to the conclusion that he is in love with Ingrid. Later that day Enrique tells Marjane that he is gay. Marjane feels confused and has a long talk with her physics teacher. At this point she is really trying to place herself and decide whether or not she should take her personal relationships further with men, and ultimately decides to do so. After failing horribly with the boys she likes, she starts getting deeper into drugs. When at first it was something she was totally against. A little while later she meets Markus and falls in love with him. Marjane gets some drugs for Markus, and gains a reputation as a drug dealer. When this change comes about its not a real big surprise to me. She has been whimsically following whatever is popular at the time throughout her whole life and finally this is the path that leads to her demise.
