I'm sure you care about your boyfriend's opinion and all. I know I did in college. He was a sophomore at the end of a pledge period for his fraternity. He found out I (as a freshman) was going through FR (we had deferred). He tried to talk my roommate and I out of it. He said it was not a good idea, that he knew some women in houses and he didn't care for them.

Yeah. Well, I went through. I pledged. I became a top officer. Then I graduated. Then I became an adviser. Followed by a network specialist position with HQ. Followed by a role with my GLO's foundation. Oh, and I also married that boyfriend, who figured out that my sorority relationship was going to last a long, long time.

And guess who's corp bd treasurer for his house now? TWENTY YEARS LATER.

Boyfriends are great. They care and mean well. But you must do what you feel is right. 20 years later, my sister-in-law and my BF are still kicking themselves that they dropped out of FR because of pressure from their boyfriends. (Whom they also married).

Listen to your voice-it's the only one that matters here.
