It happens. They've dealt with it before. But I wouldn't expect ANY chapters to be knocking each other over to get at you. You may still have a successful rush, but you may be seen as used goods AND as someone who can't hold to a commitment.

What you were really suffering from is Unicorns Pooping Rainbows syndrome. Everything was supposed to be awesome and every one of your new sisters was supposed to be your new best friend (you didn't meet any fewer girls at your house than you did at the others) and they were supposed to break into song every time you approached them. Also, freshman year was supposed to be awesome and fun and EASY. Well guess what? It wasn't. College is hard for a multitude of reasons, including all of the reasons you gave and more.

So how is this year going to be different? If you are able to successfully complete rush, what will be different this time? This is not only important for you to think about before you go through rush again, but I'd be prepared with some answers on this subject. Also, are you opposed to re-pledging your old chapter? How do you intend to deal with them? I would address that head on.

And to be clear, one of the biggest problems with the rush process, IMO, is that for a week you feel like you are the center of the universe, and after pledging, you are just another sister going about your life. You expected too much of them. Sorority membership is like an arranged marriage. You can make it work, you may even be a great match for each other, but you have to grow the love after the fact. And he's not going to bring you flowers every day just because you're married.
