You have one of two options: 1) Defer the bid and hold out for a fraternity that has already turned you down once. Like it was previously said, they may have told you one thing and its really something else. You have an organization that does want you. Many people don't get a bid from even one organization, and would kill to get it. or 2) Nut up and rush with the guys that want you. Be a leader in their ranks and get that social calender filled up. A social calender is a simple thing to fix. All it takes is phone calls and planning. Push the brothers of your 'backup' out into the world. Also, don't make the mistake of seeing them keep to themselves as a bad thing. Often times, the ones that keep to themselves have the strongest brotherhood bonds. Its not going to be the 10,000 people that know who your fraternity is that will answer the call at 3 am when you are stuck 1/2 way across the country with a broke down car, it would be those brothers that you are hesitant to join because they "keep to themselves".
