I'm trying to start a new family within my sorority. The specific reasons why aren't really relevant to this but my mind has been made up. I know some people view it as really disrespectful or unnecessary, but me starting a new family is not going to end the line of the current one I'm in so don't worry. But please only answer if you have anything helpful to add.
How do you go about starting new traditions and rituals for a family?
And how exactly do you "de-activate" so to speak from your current family?
Thanks

Just like you may have friends who are closer than your biological family, your sorority family may not be the people you are closest to in your sorority. It has happened to lots of people before you and it will happen to lots of people after you.
Unless you love your chapter so little that you feel bringing unnecessary drama to it is a good idea, and unless you really are excited about the idea of forcing your sisters to choose between you and another sister, you need to drop this.
Sorry that wasn't "helpful," but it's the truth.
ETA: I looked at your other posts and when your big leaves, it's most likely that you and your twins' families will kind of self-splinter anyway. Our chapter had one girl who was like Abraham (many many descendants) and half the chapter was technically her family. As the branches grew, they changed up the traditions slightly. It's the end of the semester and everyone hates everyone. Just go home for break and let everything chill a bit.
