Quest, I'm sorry your experience has not been a good one. But I have come across some bruhs that are wild, but I don't think it has anything to do with being a Que, that is who they are as a person. I can truly say my experience has been a positive one. I know the bruhs are "out" and so am I and my chapter sorors so it doesn't bother me that they get a little crazy. Its just "knowing how to be out". I have nothing but love for the bruhs and respect. I believe in the true bond between our organizations, because it does exist. again I invite you to email me, I love to talk to you in more depth about this.

FOR WHAT? What are you getting at? Trust me I am a DELTA and you don't have to look me up? I wouldn't be putting this out there if it didn't happen to me personally. What?, you need to know who I am so you can try and Judge me like reds6 and Tanzanite who seem to think that I hate the bruhs which I do not, just the abuse. Feel free to email me at kpitreal5@hotmail.com. This applies to all! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/tongue.gif

Lets remember Protocol. I don't think anyone was questioning whether you were or were not a Soror. I think Soror Director was trying to invite you to our private forum. And I never said I thought you hated the bruhs, read my last post.

REDS6 and other good Sorors. It is obvious that QUEST has some issues and frustrations that make her so touchy. If as she states, she has as many good experiences with the Bruhs as negative ones, then why the multiple posts that focus on the negative, even to the point of getting snippy with you? In the words of Keith Sweat, "sumthin', sumthin', sumthin', jus' aint right"

Reds6,
That's just it, YOUR view comes from YOUR experiences whereas Quest's view comes from hers.
I don't think it's fair for you to say that if sorors don't "understand" the bond then they're not sorors. It has very little to do with understanding, but more to do with PREFERENCE. I understand the bond. I respect the bond. And I had a wonderful and educational process. And I'll admit that I'm still learning.
Like Quest, I don't have a problem with ALL Ques. I've just had enough unpleasant experiences with SOME Ques.

ace_que98,
I have no problem chillin' or "gettin' hype with" those bruhs who have treated me with respect. But I will not jump up and down and get hyped up (like I have seen some sorors do) just because a bruh is in my presence. The kind of person I am, I'll smile, go over to the bruh and give him some love.

I sent you an email

It's one thing to share your opinion based on your experiences. It's another thing to criticize others for their opinions. Personally, I felt that the initial posts by Melody and Quest were some what critical of those of us who love the bruhs. But, I could be wrong. If I am, "Pardon moi."

Sorry to say, but I do get hyped when the bruhs come around because I feed off their energy and OUTness. I'm a not a Que-groupie or anything like that--I just love to see the bruhs in action.

As Sorors, we have to be respectful of each other, even if we disagree on something. On that note, let me just say this:

We ain't madatcha for not feeling the way we do about the Bond.
Don't be mad at (i.e. critical of) us for getting hyped when the bruhs come around.

And I'm Out!

Soror Moderator,
I agree...we should be respectful of each other.
If I seemed critical, that was not my intent. Pardon me.
It was more of me wondering why some sorors feel that I should react the way they do when bruhs come around. Now you may say that I should address those particular sorors...and I have. I just wanted to see how other sorors felt.
Don't get me wrong, it's nothing wrong with bein' OWT wit' the bruhs if that floats your boat. But we DO have those sorors and sisterfriends who seem like, as you said, "Que-groupies". http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
My last comment is: To each his/her own. I got nuttin' but love for those who treat me as I treat them...with respect. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

i am too!

MeezDescreet,

You in Texas?

ace_que98,

i emailed you

What in the Ham Sandwich is going on? Read the original post? What anger? WHAT BRUH HATING? I wasn't angry until you ( bruhs and sorors alike) appeared to be judging me for my opinion. I am not judging the whole.

"I have met some very nice and loving bruhs that have treated me like a queen, HOWEVER, I have also had some very negative experiences(more NEGATIVE than positive). "

How about this: The next time I see a Que I just run and jump on him, straddle him and let him have his way. ooop-roooo! LISTEN, I was not being judgemental of your relationship with the Ques. What I said is why is it that if I come into contact with some ques (If the shoe fits, wear it) they feel the need to lick me, gnaw on me, grab me, etc. That was something that happened to me and I did not like it. Is all. You may. Whatever makes your boat float. I love my sorors regardless of there opinions, that was mine simply stated. Respect me. I have nothing against Omega Psi Phi but they bother me when they do that and some don't take no for an answer. Delta's and Ques are wonderful together, sorta like peanut butter and jelly http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif but me and some of the one's I have come across have not been like that.
Please do not take it personal. I have met some ques who have showed love with a hug and a kiss and everything was fine. Not a but bite. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Before I get started, is it just me, or is anyone else really feeling that new song by Eric Sermon with Marvin Gaye "Just Like Music"?


Melody and Quest,

I feel you on the biting amd licking, etc that some bruhz do, especially if ya'll aren't cool like that. I've had my run in's with Delta's too, like when I goto hug, they reach their hand for a handshake, charging bruhz for parties, etc. Thats happened a few times.

I've also had them look at the bruhz funny when we ask them to come to the frat house after a party.

However, Ive been out of state and I ve seen the sorors get as hype as bruhz when the dawg comes over the speakers. Ive seen the sorors hang tight before the party, after the party, during the party, etc.

Im not gonna do cartwheels b/c you are a delta, but I will greet you and give you mad love when I meet you. Now if you prove to be unfriendly..then oh well. So I guess Melody and Quest we agree. Take the sorry bruhz and sorors and charge it to tha game, kick it with the cool ones, and be OUT.

RED6, me and you would get along very well b/c settin tha hops out is a very big passion of mine, I take personal pride and percision when i do. I like that acrobatic, up in the air, grit on your face hoppin. You could call it an obsession if you will.

Out,
aceque98

Like I mentioned in a previous post, it's an individual thing regarding the bond one has with a member of Omega Psi Phi and any other organization.

Here are some true to life examples: One Omega that I met in a social gathering (picnic) said to me "If you are a real Delta then you would eat that piece of bread that is on the ground." Needless to say, Sorors had to hold me back.

Another Omega I met at a major ceremony back in February, where there were alot of distinguished political officials present, embraced me like I was his "sister" and we chat all the time and have become very good friends.

I met another Omega at a dinner party I was giving 2 years...we ended up being neighbors and we talk at least 4 times a week.

And I've met Omegas who walk past me everyday and hold their heads down when they pass me. But guess what? I'm not worried because I treat people as people first not because of the letters they wear. I feel that if a member of Omega Psi Phi If I don't get along with a member of any organization, more than likely I wouldn't get along with them if they weren't in the organization....so it's an individual thing. It also depends on the setting and circumstances in which you meet. There are alot of factors to be considered.

I like you for WHO you ARE not WHAT you ARE. And if we all applied this principle to our everyday lives, we would be alot better off.
