Nothing wrong with positivity. The process of seeking membership to nearly any greek organization is a difficult and trying one -- you'll need a positive attitude to make it through. However, it would've been very damaging to your chances if you were to approach a member on your campus and tell them how you are about to join her sorority - it makes it look like you don't appreciate or realize the struggle that she had to overcome and you don't value the gift of it's membership.
To the ladies of ZPhiB: WOW! I've seen interests in other sorority boards get torn to shreds with catty remarks for making these honest mistakes that many people who don't know that much about greek life make. I mean really ripped apart with insults and snobbyness. I am impressed with how nicely you ladies handled this situation and this correction.
