So after reading 1984, I reccomended it to a friend of mine. He said "I didn't know you were communist." This sparked up lots of confusion as Orwell was Socialist, but the book presented INSOG to be a strange Socialism itself and the main characters to be strongly against that. So what are your opinions on the matter?

Anti-authoritarian. Neither pro nor anti-communism. It is against the Stalinist brand of communism. Orwell himself might be described as a libertarian socialist. Just because you read and enjoy 1984 certainly doesn't make you a communist.

Your friend is retarded. Not everything falls neatly into basic categories, nor does reading something make you anything. Indeed, you should be reading as wide literature as possible, to get a broader perspective and actually be educated in the notions you might oppose.

This is a good answer.

socialism != communism, even though they share a number of ideals
Also, Orwell got to see the spanish civil war first person, what do you think his opinions on fascism and communism would be?
