Erik's friends have been making fun of Matthew's small muscles each day in the locker room. Erik knows this hurts Matthew's feelings, but he is afraid his friends will make fun of him if he doesn't join in the teasing. What should Erik do?

Make new friends. There are plenty of people in the world to be friends with. Ive actually been in this situation and became friends with the people everyone made fun of. And now i stand up for all if them whenever it happens. They always know they can come to me. Would you rather be a bully or be the one that stands up for the ones being bullied? If u dont want to make new friends then just stop joining in. If they make fun of erik for it then clearly they are not true friends and you know that they are all just as worried as you are about not joining in.

He should man up like a real vato and stop worrying about what others think of him not picking on a weak kid.
