Don't do anything rash. The first year of college has so many ups and downs. Stick it out through the remainder of the year at the very least.

Deactivating from your sorority is one of those genie's you won't be able to put back into the bottle. Think hard about this and consider giving it a little more time. You just may not have gotten into your groove yet and will bloom a little later.

My school was on the quarter system and we pledged and initiated a girl who barely said a word fall and winter. Spring, everything changed when she volunteered to help our Social Chair coordinate our participation in Sigma Chi Derby Days. All of a sudden, she was involved, which meant she was actively engaging with people and connecting with sisters she hadn't been close to before. She went on to hold executive offices and form a very strong group of friends and I know for a fact that she is still in touch with them -- we meet every summer for a reunion even though we all graduated in...a long time ago. :)

You can deactivate at any time, so don't do it if you aren't absolutely sure this is what you want. Remember, too, that sorority membership is for life. I have sisters who I was not really close with in college, but am very close to now. So many of us have reconnected through Facebook and reunions. I had one sister in my pledge class who I really didn't even know that well back in the day, but after becoming "Facebook Friends" years later, we discovered we were going through a similar season of life, began communicating about it and are now super close. My chapter has a private FB page -- sisters from all decades have joined and it's become a great source for advice, prayer requests, sharing news, strengthening, renewing and building new bonds. You wouldn't believe how many in-person meetings have been planned. There's a huge group of us meeting for a food and music festival on the Carolina coast this fall. I would hate to think I didn't have these women in my life.

Seriously, give it through fall recruitment, which will be a full year, and really make an effort to get involved and reach out to your sisters. See if you don't feel differently. You owe it to yourself to do so.
