There's this kid..

<p>Okay, so on my floor there are two mods. Each mod has a central lounge area with 3 hallways of rooms branching off. No one every goes into the mod on my side of the floor, but the mod on the other side has a TV in it and people (mostly from that side of the floor) go to hang out in there.</p>

<p>Now there is a kid in two of my classes. We had to work on a group project together and I found out he lives in my dorm, on my floor, in the other mod. He seemed decently nice, although he gave off this very weird vibe. Soon he was like “hey come hang out in my mod”… so i did and i enjoyed it mostly because there were other people in there. The thing is, the more time goes on, the weirder this kid gets. He is now so uptight about everything now. He is 21 (and a sophomore in school), but whenever he hears anything about drinking he flips out (we go to the #1 party school). We had a floor meeting and he publicly said that he was never going to have any guests in his room, nor allow his roommate to have any guests. He expects me to sit next to him in all our classes (in the back corner of the room), and if i don’t he gives me this look that i can’t explain but lets just say, its strange. I was in the mod the other day and he left to go to some meeting but i stayed and the other people in the mod started talking about how he flipped out over something (idk what) and was demanding money from everyone. It became obvious that they are very ticked with him, and since i’ve only really been in the mod twice (I’m a very busy person, and when I’m not i like my time to myself), i feel like i might be disliked through association, although i am nothing like him.</p>

<p>The problem furthers itself, because we are in the same major, interested in the same things (a form of a news crew production), so i feel like I’m stuck with him. Luckily right now I usually have something to do, since I have a whole other group of friends through other activities. I just don’t like this situation with him, because in regards to my major and my interests, i don’t want to seem too associated with him because I don’t want to disliked through association. </p>

<p>I’m not being mean, i’ve been very nice to him, but i don’t want things to go downhill because of it. I already think the other people in the mod don’t really like me because of him. I just don’t want that to spread to my major.</p>

<p>Any ideas? Thanks.</p>

<p>Sounds like your doing what you need to do already. Quietly distance yourself from him. Stay nice but be busy.</p>
