[X]Let him play his game, make up for lost time and try to forge a few more lines of personal acquaintance among his group.
Honestly, it seems to cut down on the inanity that random people think we'll care about, so the aloofness is a plus in my mind."The whole detached aloof act. I don't want to boss you around, but c'mon girl. I get that it helped when you didn't know what you were doing, but you're past that. You know your manners, you know the expectations, you've even got a fancier dress than anyone else. So just engage with the people your supposed to be chatting up already! Stop treating them like an obstacle or challenge and just treat them like people."

I like this option, we shouldn't be scared of what he's doing.
