Until I joined a sorority I had 1 female friend in college. I had aqaintances, but no real friends. And the one I had went to another college and I have known her since I was 3. All my friends were guys. I have two older brothers, so I am so used to boys ways and how up front they are. They don't hold grudges, they get over stuff and if they have a beef with you they just tell you. That is why all my friends have been guys. THat and I meet a lot of guys that think they want to date and then get to know me and say I act to much like their guy friends.
ANYWAY-
I went through rush because my roommate was getting on my nerves and she is the stereotypical sorority chick. So I figured I would get her off my back. But I met a group of girls that were like me, laid back, fun to talk to, looking for a laugh and a good time, interested in what they can do to help others and just good natured.
Don't get me wrong, I am the petite, long blonde hair, green eyed girl from Kentucky that some picture as a sorority girl, but the two chapters at my school that are like that- well we didn't get along. They thought I was too, well, independant I guess is the word. I don't care what others think of me, I am happy with myself, and I don't care for GOSSIP, Pettiness, childish backstabbing, talking behind backs, etc. these girls were like that.
Anyway, I joined a sorority and you know what it did for me...
Gave me self esteem, helped me become comfortable with the woman side of me and empowered me as a female.
Besides that, all my guy friends loved chilling at a sorority house. And a lot of my sisters were the same as me, they had TONS of guys friends, and we bonded that way too!
