I HATE THIS STATEMENT! But I have to admit at one time I would have agreed with it. But as I sit and think about how my friendships with friends before I was Greek blew up in my face once I did go Greek I am glad to pay the price to have a bond of sisters that will always be there for me in any tiem of trouble or what not. Obviously these friends that I had that were saying this to me were not really friends if they couldnt stick by me through the stuff I was going through during our friendship.
I still have plenty of non-Greek friends and I love each and everyone of them, but I always think when they say something like that about how much they are missing out in and how all they really do is go out and get drunk and do stupid stuff. (not al of them by some of them.) I think that going Greek has made a big impact on my life and I have learned to have better friendships through this. Again whether they are Greek or non-Greek or whatever. Also I am proud when I go home and people say something about paying for drinking buddies or something as some of the people from my town sometimes put it. I just come back and say no I had those for free before I went Greek. It always makes them think.
Oh and another thing you can say to them if you feel extra mean is when was the last time you did community service because you wanted to rather than had to because of some kind of jail sentence?
Ok, that one was kind of lame, but man that is my biggest pet peeve when people say that because I have plenty of friends that werent "paid for".
ARGHH!!!
