We have to decide our big/little pairs on bid day. The two that I have had I chose somewhat randomly, and because I knew that even though I wasn't required to take one then, that I could afford the ridiculous amounts of gifts that I am always inclined to purchase. The relationship with your little is really one you create. Just try to remember any anxieties you felt about matching with your big or with the sorority itself, and be sure she finds people she is similar to within your house. Play up the things you two have in common, sure, but also make sure she meets all of your friends and sisters that she would click with. Just keep in mind that until she is initiated, you're technically still recruiting her. Make sure she knows she is wanted and that her membership is important to you and the chapter as a whole. Gifts, calls, invitations to go out, etc. all remind her of this.
