Oh man...lol.
Resentment toward the GF took on a whole new level at my chapter. House falling apart-check. Failing to collect dues-check.
The resentment thing is something I do not know how to help you with. The GF is making extremely poor decisions in my opinion and according to many thousands of alumni/brothers. My best advice is just to make them happy, but otherwise have as little interaction with the GF as possible. Also just know the risk management rules and fly under their radar.
Housing Concerns: What I did when I first moved into the my house was fix my room. I fixed everything that was broken from windows, to electrical outlets, the door/door frame, I sanded the floors and stained/polyurethaned them, painted the walls, etc.
After that I just did little projects around the house myself. Eventually other guys started doing the same thing. Not everyone, and not all the time, but once guys started seeing how nice things could be they stepped up. Mind you this was at my own expense, the chapter/housing corp didn't pay for it.
As far as collecting dues...we went from collecting about 60% to collecting 99% in about one semester. Our Treasurer was an asshole. If you didn't pay, you didn't do any of the fun stuff but had to go to all the mandatory things. No parties, no date parties, no formal, nothing.
Also if a guy got behind more than a semester, we gave him a choice. Pay up or sign your papers.
