She's not your sleep around kind of girl though. She's not the type to have one night stands or anything.

We agreed on just about all social issues and how things should be.

But, she's young and wants to live like the college girl she is I suppose. You're right, if the relationship had meant enough to her, she would have been more acomadating. She sure put on a good front for me though.
You're hurting...we get that. However, I wouldn't put too much stock in the comment about still being together if she hadn't joined a sorority. The sorority was most likely a symptom and not the cause of your relationship problems. Either way, she's moved on and it's time for you to do the same.

As an aside, my husband did not go to college - in fact, in his culture kids were expected at around age 13 to get a full time job and help support the family - and it can be difficult to share a similar viewpoint on things, namely social activities. Even as an adult, in general I see a very different set of social activities in those who went college and those who didn't.
