Yes, people here can be that sensitive, hence why I brought it to your attention.

I understand that you are clearly not trying to pretend that you are your daughter are members of a sorority. It just tends to be problematic because other newbies who come here and don't see this exchange may read something else you have posted and assume you're/your daughter is member of that particular chapter, which can be confusing/misleading depending on the topic.

Also, what if your daughter pledges another group? It's a mutual selection process. She may LOVE DG but the chapter may not invite her back. Or maybe your daughter falls in love with another chapter today?

And it's certainly okay to have favorites! I was just hoping she was not putting all her eggs in one basket. You're right, you did say that DG was a favorite among others. I suppose I was getting ahead of myself a tad bit--just because you are completely new to this and didn't know putting a "favorite" sorority in your username isn't best practice, doesn't mean your daughter is putting all of her eggs in one basket.

I hope she's having a great first invite!
