Me and my senior culture

It is normally if you come to a new place and you have to respect their culture by doing their way of live or behaviors when you are interact with the native. Some of other case might be frustrates your self.
I am a person who don’t see firstly about how life going when you come to a new and “weird” behavior. I was a new student of Cijeruk senior high school. It is far enough to get there if you live around Ciawi, so I don’t know whether how the people live in their community in the school. Like usual, I live like the way I am and still wonder why other students often talks about me, especially my senior who are in the second grade, they seem don’t like me at all. They said it is important for me to respect my senior more. I thought just like that, I didn’t see their seniorities if they seem to have more emotions with their junior. For that reason, I asked to my friend who are nearest than me to them. He said that, I was conceited that I must to be warned. I thought that I didn’t do anything wrong to them. But my friend said that, they don’t like if the junior to have an affair with their relating.
Seeing that my senior didn’t like me and want to reprimand I didn’t accused them but I have to be careful since that time. Considering their culture, I see that between senior and junior in some school usually don’t close in communicating each other because some reasons, their senior are expected to be the ruler of the junior.
