∙ 14y agoTo quote directly from the book... 'They looked at each other, baffled, in love and hate." I doubt that there are any homosexual inferences in Golding's choice of the word 'love.' I think that he was simply referring to the fact that each of the boys admired the other. Ralph admired Jack's self confidence and hunting skills but resented that Jack went off enjoying himself, hunting pigs, while Ralph was left virtually alone to build the much needed shelters. Jack admired Ralph's easy manner and popularity but he also resented the fact that Ralph was the leader when he felt that the position rightfully belonged to himself. The bafflement resulted simply from their inabilty to see each others viewpoints.

∙ 14y agoRalph agreed to go with Jack because he was showing Jack he wasn't scared to kill the beast. Jack taunted Ralph and so Jack didn't feel like he had won he agreed to go with ease.
In "Lord of the Flies," Ralph tries to make Jack feel better about losing the leadership role to him by allowing him to be in charge of the Choir Boys. Ultimately, this is a mistake, because it immediately separated boys who would loyal to Jack rather than him in the group.
Ralph thinks things have changed for the worst because they have to start killing and eating each other to survive. btw ik this answer is 100% right
When Ralph is elected to be chief he knows Jack is dissapointed (as Jack also wished to be chief) so he appoints Jack as leader of the choir and asks him what he wants them to be, to which Jack replies, "hunters."
Jack's and his tribe first try to drive Ralph from his hiding place in the thicket by sending a boulder crashing into it. When this tactic fails Jack then tries to smoke Ralph out of his hiding place by lighting a fire. Ralph makes his way out of the opposite side of the thicket by surprising and stabbing a 'savage' who is on guard. Ralph runs for it and the savages spread out across the island signalling to each other. Ralph tries hiding again, this time in Simon's secret place but is spotted by another savage, who he attacks and stabs with his spear. The fire which Jack lit soon spread out of control and set fire to most of the island. Ralph ended up stumbling onto the beach, with Jack's tribe in hot pursuit.

By having all the boys against Ralph making him the outcast now. And since jack knows the boys are scared and want to feel protected and belonged and ralph doesn't provide any protection against the beast. Jack also makes Ralph look really bad like a beast making the boys go against Ralph.
To keep an eye on Jack's Group

In "Lord of the Flies", both Ralph and Piggy crave acceptance by the group. At this point, they had become outsiders to the group by not going along with what Jack and the rest of the group did and said. Their hope was that by joining in with the dance, they would once again become part of the tribe.
