I personally think that when your in college, dating a greek has its pros and cons. And everyone has made some valid points. I have dated the spectrum of Fraternities, however, in college I was partial to the Sigmas. When you approach it in a realistic positive manner, dating Greeks have their advantages.(And this is from my "back in the day" college view point) You get invited to VIP parties, picnics, house parties. Their LB's look out for you (when you need a ride, etc, etc). Everyone knows that on most HBCU's campus, frats are just as popular as the football/basketball teams. If not, more.I guess the cons would be all the girls who are sweatin' the letters or basically tryin to see how far they can get with your man.
However, once your in the real world all that crap goes out the window! It's not about you being on his arm at the party anymore, or going to private parties or getting in joints for free or secretly wearing his T-shirt behind closed doors..(Ya'll feel me.)It's about the MAN. Letters or no letters.There are some really nice guys out there.But we have all been through it when some guys go over and their heads blow up. Women come out the woodworks. All of a sudden those 3 letters and that call erased that yuck mouth smile,that warped shaped head, dirty fingernails, even that raggedy ass ride. LOL.I am funny to me.Anyway, I can see it being harder in college to deal with a greek than in post grad life. And most of the time, once they graduate they calm down drastically. Who gives a damn about letters in real life when your not being responsible and considerate??!! Or take a sister to a real restaurant instead of Chinese buffet. Much love to Phi Beta Sigma.
