If you want to deal with the friendship between boys and girls, here are some “dos and don’ts” for you to follow.

　 Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. It is very natural for the boys and girls to contact each other and build up the friendship with students of the other sex. We should have more friends of the other sex instead of one or two. We should contact the students in public instead of in secret.

　 Contact students of the other sex warmly, generously and sincerely. Don’t be too nervous or too shy in contact with a person of the other sex. In that case it is very difficult for you to make a lot of friends, as no one likes a person who is too shy to say a word. If you are too shy, you can contact the students with the same interest and hobby as you. If you keep doing so, little by little, you will find you are also as free to express yourself as others.

Don’t fall into the ditch(泥潭) of early love. The boys and girls at adolescence are rich in feeling and full of imagination. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and to fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, boys and girls at middle school are too young and too tender(嫩的) to shoulder the heavy duty of love. Early love is a green apple that can’t be eaten. Do keep out of early love.
