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 experiences rejection in life, and yes, sometimes people are affected differently by it. It's not unheard of for released PNMs to get upset or depressed over it.

Something important to remember is that not receiving a bid does NOT make you any less of a person. It just doesn't.

My best suggestion to you is to make sure that you get involved in something you enjoy on campus REALLY enjoy the rest of college. You don't get a "do-over" of college.
