YOU GET THE GIST IT'S WEIRD, and it doesn't match with aspies who I've met before (like sexually pursuing someone you've just met? REALLY aggressively? Absolutely not a common symptom of aspergers) so we all decided we wanted to reach out to Student Support for advice because we have no idea how to interact with him or ward him off when things get uncomfortable to the point where nobody wants to go into the kitchen alone because we're scared he'll be there. Remember that word ADVICE because it gets important in a minute.
The guy goes really weird, introverted even (he's an absolute gobshite on the best of days like he literally never shuts up so this was odd behaviour for him) for about a week and then goes back to how he was before. Another week after this Student Support contact me saying they'd pulled him in for a meeting and wanted to know if he'd changed. Disclaimer: this is exactly what I told them NOT TO DO. I said I had literally no desire for them to tell him off, I only wanted advice and guidance so that the house could understand him better. I told her that telling him off would be absolutely detrimental and cause tension. I told her nothing had changed, and I again reiterated that I would prefer his support worker to maybe schedule a meeting with the house and give us TIPS FOR LIVING WITH SOMEONE LIKE OUR HOUSEMATE.
Again, didn't happen. They had a second meeting, nothing changed again. This time I went into Student Support after receiving an email, again asking for advice, and they agreed. His support worker was present, and they said that they'd speak to the manager and get back to me BEFORE making any steps.
Not before they pulled the guy in for a THIRD MEETING, though. This time, he came home, and actually spoke to one of the lads in the house on the subject because they're threatening to kick him out of the house. And they made it sound like we've asked them to do it.
You read that right: I asked for advice on how to make life comfortable for everyone, including him, and the next thing I hear is that they're bullying him out of the house.
I'm disgusted. As much as I resent the fact that a bunch of teenagers have been forced to live with a severely high maintenance 24 year old man without the offer of any kind of warning or support, I NEVER wanted them to bully him out. The lack of professional decorum in this university is appalling.
