Deactivating wasn't uncommon at my school. In my freshman year, one sorority took quota in FR, but only half of the class was still active by the end of our senior year. Whether your sisters were friendly or unfriendly to you after deactivation kind of depended on why you deactivated... deactivating for financial reasons = ok, getting terminated for risk management reasons = not ok.

You could also (at least in my chapter) temporarily go inactive for a legitimate reason. One of my pledge sisters went inactive to do a semester abroad; another sister went inactive for a semester because she had major medical problems (she didn't take the semester off school, but she dropped all her extracurricular activities). Those situations were no big deal.
