One of my best friends recently made a facebook profile similar to a guy that is aggressive and moderately dangerous. the profile is mocking the guy ALOT. now almost everyone in our grade knows it.
this day, a former friend of mine came up and told me to search on a facebook profile (the one that my friend did). i told him i had already seen it and he asked "so you know who did it?". by that i thought he knew who it was. so i said "yeah **** did it". so know he and his friend (good friend to the aggressive guy) told almost everyone but the aggressive guy. my friend is now thinking about changing school. i am drowning in guilt even though he forgave me. I feel like there is nothing i can do. anyone have an idea?
I agree with the above posters. You friend was begging for attention and got it. You also helped.

That doesn't help your friend right now though. He should remove the profile immediately and try to make peace if he can. If that won't work then he has options to outright leave the situation, or contact an authority as a preventative measure (school official). But, there is only so much someone who works at the school can do, right? What happens when he's off school grounds?

I'd say he should erase the facebook profile ASAP and apologize to try and save face. It could be the easiest, quickest thing to help himself.

he deleted it as fast as he found out, so it's good on that part. telling the guy however, is a mistake. the aggro guy is an idiot and forgive and forget is something he'd never do.

I abhor bullies and "dangerous" folk, but surely, he assumed the risk by setting this up in the first place.

Well as people have mentioned you might want to inform someone inside the school. It's a stupid situation sure, but your friend was the bully first. Did he think there would be no responsability involved?

Worst case scenario is he learns a lesson and doesn't do it again.

How old are the kids in question? I mean, fights at school are rarely serious. You get a kicking, and you either take it and everyone forgets or you come back later and hit them with a chair or something and you get into serious trouble.

At the end of the day, you're friend is probably better off squaring up to the guy and telling him to fuck right off. Sure, he'll get a beating, but he's going to get one anyway and at least this way people will know he's got some balls.

In a more serious note. People actually get beat up over facebook. But really fights in high school last for like 5 seconds. My high school had like no fights and the one's there were I watched them because I liked to see the teachers break it up because they were X bouncers. There is just something funny about a teacher lifting two students off the ground and asking them "are you gonna stop". Man Mr.Bonner was awesome. ahh High school.

Your friend fucked up by making that profile, then you fucked up by saying he did it. There's no way to sugarcoat it. You can get the principal involved by explaining to him or her what happened. You can explain everything to your parents and your friends' parents. Maybe then a peaceful solution can be found. Unfortunately, that might not be able to be reached, so your friend should prepare for a fight if it comes to that.

Im sorry, but do you live in a world were people get away with beating other people up? We have something called "the police" who handle events we call "crime".

well done on your friend for having a sense of humour about numptys. The only question is can he pay the price for it. Your friend didn't screw up by making a profile, but sometimes there a butchers bill.

Can't believe everyone on here is having a go at your friend. His facebook thing sounds great. People take things too seriously. Did he include joke pictures? That would be great.

... are you in an old teenage highschool movie? Does eighties music play when you walk around?
OT: Take down the profile - that way the person who tells Mr. Aggressive about it will look crazy when they go to show him.

I agree. Your friend made a joke, and if the guy responds with violence he should get arrested. Ignore all those people who says he deserves it. Even if your friend deserves it (which I don't think he does) an insult and a fight are not on the same level.

That being said. Delete the profile, don't talk about it any more and let it go away. If the guy confronts you or your friend, own up to it. Don't apologize if you don't feel sorry. He made it to mock the guy behind his back, if the guy is legitimately offended, then apologize. If he gets belligerent about it, then feel justified in your mockery. (Doesn't make you a nice person, but at least it means your honest.) The worst thing you can do is back down because you are afraid. If you back down because you are actually sorry, that's ok and it's the right thing to do. But if you're only sorry because you got caught then that says something worse about your character than the fact that you insulted someone.

I'd say if shit goes down back-up your friend. Even if it means taking some blows for him.

What he did was stupid, but you have now made yourself a part of it.

On the bright side, it might strengthen your friendship.

Just let him get beat up, imo your friend is kind of a punk. From what you say it seems like hes a person who is perfectly willing to run his mouth without thinking of the consequences. I honestly think it will be a good listen in humility. And like other people said school fights are rarely anything serious, hell I've gotten in a couple of school fights and very rarely do kids get more than a few punches before they gas out or end up in a stupid tangle/grapple on the ground.

Despite the fact your friend has it coming, I really do think it's time to remember what "The Hitch-hikers Guide To The Galaxy" taught us:

"Don't panic"

Well....at least......you shouldn't.
