EDIT: Before all of this, Me and both Mikes get into an argument about weather or not we should throw rubber chickens and rubber pigs (I'm not joking) at this introvert who's only friend is his boyfriend. Mike 1 is tired of throwing stuff at him, and dosn't want to beat him up. However, me and Mike 2 think we should. Yeah, flame me with your insults on how not to beat up nerds and how not to gay bash, but everybody does it. I mean EVERYBODY. Even some of the girls do it too. If you havn't at least tripped him while he was running or stolen one of his books, you're considered to be one of his "boyfriends", and an introvert who deserves no friends.
Well, you guys are middle schoolers. You guys don't know better yet. It happened at the middle school I went to, as well. Middle school children are at the point in their lives where they're not quite young children anymore, but not mature enough to be considered young adults. They group the children in this group because most of them (if not all) hit puberty (*shudder* that word rubs me the wrong way) at this point. They do this for a good reason. The hormones in their bodies are going crazy, and they feel the only way to be dominant is to be offensive and jerky so they don't get put down themselves. Most children do not leave this mode until after their freshman year of high school.
A friend of mine, who is a freshman himself, once told me he was surprised at the amount of openly gay students there are in the high school we go to, and how everyone respects them. I told him that most students mature in high school around their sophomore year, when they realize they're not "all that" with their attitude anymore. They see the upperclassmen helping out, being all-around nice people, swearing a LOT less (or not at all, you'll learn to do this as well, because you won't get far with a potty mouth), and then usually say to themselves "Hey, I don't have to be like the way I was in middle school anymore" and start to settle down.
A couple of years from now you'll see older students that are exactly the way I described, and with this "monkey-see, monkey-do" habit of you and the rest of the people in your grade, you guys will act the same way.
