College is a whole different place...don't ever let one person dictate your life! Be who you are and do what you want to do. Its okay to consider other people and their opinions but in the end you have to do what's best for you. If you want to go to the college, go. I doubt you'll even run into your friend there. If you do, chances are that you will have met several new friends and neither one of you will think a thing about it.

I went through this in high school as well. This girl I didnt like was applying to this school I wanted to go too, so I didnt apply. Honestly, the most important thing is going to an institution that makes u happy. Nine times out of ten, you will hardly ever see that person. School is about getting an education, so if you think this person will distract you from learning, maybe you should apply to another institution. Just make sure it is a decision that you are happy with because that is all that matters in the end.

If you dislike him, than how is he your friend?
No, don't change colleges, just go on and do your thing. College will keep you both busy, you'll both meet new people, and probably won't even end up in the same circles.
So...I think you need to keep the plans you have made, and just learn to avoid him, deal with him, or be honest and tell him your friendship isn't clicking.

Why should you apply at a different school? Is the college that you want to go to got all the classes that you want? If he gets in your face at all, just tell him to leave you alone and if he doesn't, then the authorities would be contacted.
If you have the nerve after telling them about someone else that you heard likes him, let them both know how you feel about her. Now, you don't have to say 'I love you,' but you can say something like you feel like you would like to get to know her better. In this manner, it doesn't look like you are trying to make a move on her, but it does let her know that you have some feeling for her that you thought she should know about.

Leaving High School is just that, leaving it all behind... Unless you seek him out or he seeks you out, there prob. is very little chance the 2 of U will see each other much.... College is a different world, with more ppl and space and things going on.... Why would you let someone dictate where, what and when, about your life ?? Stay cool and keep to the plan !!! God bless

Most colleges are large enough that you shouldn't have to have any contact with him.
It's time to mature while your at college so that you can handle situations like this productively. If you don't you will have an extremely hard time in the work place and with life in general.
Work on yourself rather than avoiding discomfort.

Don't let a fight keep you from your ideal future. Maybe you will get over it. The college you go to will effect your whole life so don't chose on who is going to the college, choose on what will help you most.

how can he be your friend if you dislike him.Collage is a pretty big place. I'm sure you could avoid him. Also break off the friendship if you dislike him. Honesty is the best policy.

you shouldn't base your life decisions on other people. This is your life not anyone elses. Do what you have to do for you- DON'T worry about anyone else but you- it sounds selfish but when your 30 and you have a family of your own-who's gonna pay the bills!
