Rodrick also threatens Greg to kill him and Greg also fears him and whenever Rodrick sees Greg in his room, he starts chasing him. Rodrick seemed to know that Greg had a crush on Holly Hills in The Last Straw because when they were in a hotel room, Rodrick lied to Greg by saying the Hills family is staying in a room next to their's, Greg fell for it and Rodrick pushed him out of the door and locked the door, Greg was also in his underwear making it worse for him. Rodrick and Greg are rarely seen getting together, however at the end of the Rodrick Rules film, Greg and Rodrick bond and end up etting along with each other.In The Third Wheel Rodrick is a background character and doesn't plays and prank or bothers Greg,making it one the few times for this to happen.

Robert Jefferson (Rowley's dad):
Greg and Robert seem to have a very bad history as Robert always thinks Greg is a bad influence for Rowley and he often tells Rowley to stay away from him,Greg describes him as a very protective parent as he doesn't even lets Rowley play a video game with a slightest bit of violence.and won't let Rowley ride scary rides in the boardwalk as seen in Dog Days.

Holly Hills:
Greg has no relationships with Holly in the book series,in the Last Straw Greg wanted to impress her because she was according to Greg the only girl in his class which he liked and didn't have a boyfriend.However when Greg went to roll-a-round,she called Greg "Fregley",this made Greg lose interest in her,in the same book Holly wrote in Greg's yearbook and used his real name and said he was OK.Greg was fine with that and started to get interest in her again,but Holly wrote in Rowley's  yearbook that he is cute,this disappointed Greg. In the Movie Seris though Greg and her may have become a couple at the end of Dog Days (Movie).

Heather Hills:
In the book Dog Days,Greg had a crush on both Heather and Holly,he thought that if he would get good with Heather he could get a highschool girlfriend (a thing he has been wanting for a longtime) and so he could show off to kids at his school.So then he found that she is a lifeguard at the pool,when they got to the pool Greg would go to the pool which she is lifeguarding on,and Greg would excersise in the bathroom so he could have his muscles pop up.Greg thought to impress her he would say anything to a kid doing anything bad (which Heather was supposed to say).Once a kid was feeling bad and he vommitted,Heather went to clean it and asked Greg to help her clean it,but Greg just ignored her because he was scared of cleaning the vomit.Soon Greg thought that Heather will soon go to college and that long-time relationships won't work.
