I've tried to explain that it was deeply personal issues that caused me to depledge, not them, but I guess they do not want to hear that.

I don't want to sound mean to the chapter, but if these girls were really your friends (and it really all depends on how long you were a pledge for) I don't understand why they didn't support you? I say this speaking from experience. When I was a freshman a sister in my Alpha class actually had to leave the chapter because her father lost his job. We all were devastated to lose her as a sister.

I mean to me, if they really gave a shit about you, why did they start ignoring you and treating you crappy after you depledged. I don't know you but I believe you when you say you had to depledge due to family issues. Unfortunately that happens because it's life.

I don't know for me personally I don't know if I could rejoin a chapter that treated me the way they seemed to treat you. I don't care how much I thought I loved them. I'd be weary of their concern, is it only contigent on if I'm actually an initiated sister?

Maybe it's just me though. I know that if there was an Alpha (when I was in college) that had to drop, and I absolutely adored her as a sister (as did the rest of the chapter) I wouldn't be able to cut her out of my life. I'd still want to make sure she was doing okay, because I would be her friend. And friends are supposed to give a shit when you're going through stuff.

I'm sorry I'm rattling. Feel free to disagree with me.

I blame my ramblings on lack of food at the moment
