But why is it a problem when someone goes up to a newly crossed Delta and congratulate her? Or whats wrong if a prospect approaches a Delta in a respectful way to inquire information about her organization? I mean i hear people say all the time that it's good to establish a relationship with a Delta if you are a prospect. I'm just asking questions for honest clarity. Im not askin them to offend anyone or like I stated before to piss anyone off. I honesty just want to know. OR if it something I will never understand unless I become a Delta then i understand. Thanks.
I think that the problem is, when there is a problem because most of the time there isn't, the way people approach you. Maybe it's just me but I can tell when folks are approaching me sincerely and when they aren't. A congrats is a congrats, I'll accept love from anyone but if we weren't super duper cool please don't act like you want to be best friends all of a sudden. It's hasn't been a MONTH since I crossed so I remember the need to ask questions of someone and again if it's done in the right way you won't get me to SHUDDUP about Delta cause it's special to me. But for example, this hasn't happened to me thank God, someone was to say congrats and oh by the way when y'all gonna take another line cause I can't wait to oo-oop? Well that's not cool. Plus I'll be real I don't know everything about Delta so there is some stuff I wouldn't be able to tell ya if you asked no matter how you asked it. I have yet to be offended by anyone and hope that I can keep in mind that asking a question isn't a bad thing from here on out. All I ask is some consideration about when ya asking, ie if I'm in the same class with you doing some last minute studying for this bear of an exam it ain't the right time to talk to me about Delta. Wait till after class when we both annoyed with the teacher and we got something else to bond over too.
