Re: Acceting a bid through COB AFTER that group cut you

I'm not saying if YOU cut THEM, but if they cut you.

I think I would have a deep seeded memory that they did in fact reject me and only wanted me because they needed members.

I hope I'm not hurting anyones feelings who have received a bid through COB -- I say congratulations! And I know this is probably a bad thought I have but it is still a thought and am wondering if anyone shares it with me.
Question - are there girls that joined through COB in your chapter? If so, did you ever view them or treat them any different than if they had joined through formal? Most people on GC will answer with a resounding, "Yes, no, no." It seems to me that people are in general too concerned with status in nearly every area of life. Joining through formal makes you the top of the food chain and all that.
I didn't take it personally when I was cut, and I think that generally you SHOULDN'T. I would however take it personally that I was offered a bid during COB when not all of the superficial factors of formal rush come into play.
