I hope you brought enough Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper to share b/c that stuff is gooooood! lol.
Ok, my two cents---I wouldn't depledge. You said you really like the girls, so what's the big deal? If you aren't shallow (and you say you aren't) then reputations really shouldn't matter. So your part of the "fat, loser" sorority, why don't you continue and work towards getting that reputation changed. I always thought that being a sorority was about the friendship, the community service---not about which frat will mix with you. If you TRULY feel in your heart (putting aside all the hearsay and the rumors) that this is NOT where you belong, then go ahead and drop.
But really think about it this way.....50 years down the road what are you going to remember---the friendships and the bonding you did, or the reputation of being a "fat loser" sorority? That is what should really matter, because if you like the group of girls and the sorority in general, reputations shouldn't matter. When your old and gray and telling stories to your grandchildren are you going to tell them how people considered ya'll the "fat loser" sorority? Or are you going to tell them about the time when Betty Sue locked her keys in the car, in the pouring rain at Midnight after the last showing of the movie y'all were dying to watch, and how y'all had to walk 2 miles down the road to the nearest gas station dripping wet when all of a sudden these really hot guys come out of the store and see y'all? I don't know about you, but I'd take the memory over Betty Sue anyday...that is what's going to stick with u down the road. Don't be so preoccupied with stereotypes because as we all know, many stereotypes aren't true. I hope you just go with your heart and do what it really tells you to do. Don't let outside forces influence your decision or you will truly regret it!!
***Ok now pass the popcorn please. I have some Raisinettes if y'all want some!!!*****
