It\u2019s disgusting. I don\u2019t want to just lose it to him because he is sensitive and without my company he wouldn\u2019t get much respect socially. He\u2019s also told me right out that that\u2019s the reason he hangs around me. \nI wonder what\u2019s the best way to go about this. Surely there is a good outcome for me. I\u2019ve got a golden reputation for being kind and getting respect. It looks like I\u2019ll have to kill 1. Any other choices here?"}
