I think Junior high is when the opposite sex starts noticing each other without cooties attached. In 7th grade term, if you hold hands with a boy (outside of class) and kiss him, he's officially your boyfriend.
As I continue to explore from being single to it's complicated, I received my first dose of back stabbing, conniving girls and sneak attacks.
I had a BFF then and we were inseparable. Everything was great until this boy J entered our lives and started flirting with us. Of course when you're younger, you always send a friend to ask for you and find out whether or not the guy likes you. Turns out, he liked us both. My friend and I both agreed that we wouldn't let this boy get in between our friendship so we decided to both turn him down and tell him we're not interested. Stupid me, I went first. I called J up and told him I wasn't interested. A week later, my friend D (a friend of J's who's also dating my other girl friend C) calls me up and told me he saw J holding my BFF's hand. Alarm bells goes off and that was my first sneak attack blow. Still having faith in her, I denied it, saying maybe he didn't have his glasses on and it was another person. D tells me, "they asked me and C to go on a double date, I'm sure I didn't see another girl that up close..." When I confronted BFF about it, (according to her) she told J she wasn't interested but when I asked J later on about it, he said she never made such a statement which is why he went after her since I said no.
Enraged, I did what a normal girl would at that age. REVENGE. I called up J and told him I changed my mind and that I was interested after all. He dropped my BFF like a ton of bricks and came running to me. Needless to say, I split up with my BFF. She started back stabbing me and spreading rumors because we were once so close, she knew a lot about me. That was my first lesson at wall building to protect myself in the future. I dated this guy up to 8th grade until he wanted to get touchy feely with me. Then I dropped him because I wasn't ready to get naked. A month later, I found out he's going out with my ex-BFF. And a few months after that, right before graduation, I found out he had slept with her and dumped her and now getting ready to sow his seed in High School. He didn't even take her to prom.
I ended up going to the prom with my group of friends. When some guy came up to me to asked me to dance, he also asked me why I didn't have a date. I told him, "it's complicated..."

so catty. >.< i hated middle school, high school, and the like.
this is too complicated for me to handle...
wow so much dramarama Oo
boys do have cooties! they just lie to our faces, that's all.
You guys had a middle school prom? Intense :P
that shit still happens ever after high school in to college.. and ive realized that the reason why most girls now a days dont particularly have many female friends (because i know i dont) is because they always pull shit like that.. and some may say the boys have a part to play (which is true) but what happened to friendship and loyalty- your friend is alwyas in the wrong because if she was really your friend she would have been honest from the very beginning.
ugh yeah i think middle school was even worse than high school in terms of cattiness. in high school, girls are a little bit more conservative and sneaky about it.
Oh trust me, as a high school student I can tell you that I thank the LORD for high school. It is no more the cheerleader,jock, star trek nerd hierarchy. People hang out with others they can relate to, but not in a stereotypical way. And there's no hesitation between groups; you talk to whoever you want to. Actually, I wouldn't even say that there is groups. It's almost like a web; this person knows this person, who knows these people. And the drama's pretty much nonexistent, except for the occasional pregnant rumor. But middle school? An entirely different story. Picture a jungle, wild monkeys, and a few ravenous jungle cats. God, middle school was terrible. But don't take my story as truth to all high schools, because I live in the DC metropolitan area and it's pretty diverse out here. How it is in some small town in Kansas, I don't know.
Middle school is the teenage equivalent of hell.
I hated middle school. Worst years of my life. Glad that's over!
This was such a great story. Ah, to be back in middle school again...
Pssh I was after girls since Pre-School hehe. Never got any till after high school...but still heh.
Love the end to this.
@OngishLyOngLee@xanga - no, if we have cooties, we would rub it all over your face so you can have it too
OP, when it comes to sex, regardless how old they are, your friends will always back stab you if your S.O. fit their profile.
Great story. :)
