I have experienced having pledge sisters that I didn't know too well and didn't have a good impression of. There was a group of girls in my pledge class that were big city girls into partying and everything and I came in as the small town naive freshman. They had already met everybody and hung out with all the fraternities and I just had heard about them. I remember on bid day being like "holy cow, how did I end up in the same sorority as them, we have nothing in common" all of them ended up being great girls, one depledged and another transfered but 2 other pledge sisters I have lived with for a year and will be living with again in the fall and they are some of my closest sisters. Shows that first impressions can be very wrong! (Especially since they thought I was shy and intimidating, sure fooled them!)

Nobody ever said that you have to get along with everybody in your sorority/fraternity. This is really important to remember! You all will have a common bond through your ritual and your love for your organization. I would do anything for anyone of my chapter sisters, but there are some that I like and get along with better than others. There are some that I don't get along with, but will always respect simply because they have the same love for Chi Omega that I do.
