I know this is off topic...but have any of you ever known a girl who was cut really hard and honestly felt like bad depression from it. I never wanted to tell my friends how affected I was by my first rush experience.. Little girls always grow up being told that they're beautiful and perfect and all that. Then, I go through recruitment and all the sudden I feel like there must be something terribly wrong with me. I walked through the doors with great, high self esteem..and somehow I left scarred almost. I feel like I'm missing out. I feel like there must be something wrong with me. Does anyone know a girl who felt like this after rush rejection or am I just dramatic...

Everyone's different, so things effect them differently. I wasn't in that situation but as a Rho Chi I equated it to getting dumped by a boyfriend. Sometimes when they say "it's me, not you" it's true. And just about every girl has been in THAT situation to some degree. It doesn't suck any less, but it isn't always you. And if it was partially you, depending on the campus it could be for an extremely trivial reason. Remember that sorority women aren't a chosen race...they are women JUST like you and you'll find friends, I'm sure, whether or not you end up being Greek. There's no reason to think that they know something about yourself that you don't. You know who you are, what you have to offer the world, and as cliche as it sounds, if they can't see that, it's not your problem. Take your assets and talents elsewhere, join a club on campus, make new friends, and enjoy yourself.
