When your non-greek S.O. doesn't understand...

Next weekend, my chapter is having a reunion. There are a bunch of alums going (most of whom I've never met) and of course the collegians will be around. They've got some fun stuff planned, and we will have some free time as well. Mainly I'm going in order to meet the younger alums and collegians and see what has become of my chapter since I graduated.

My husband said he'd come along and "do the dutiful husband thing" if I wanted. He has never been fond of my sorority or most of the sisters who were active when I was. So I left it up to him, and he's decided to come. (A few other people are bringing their S.O.'s, so it won't just be him.)

We have a few friends still living in Boston, so whenever we go up there, we call or email them and try to get together. So my husband emailed a couple we're friendly with (we all attended the same school, and they didn't go greek either) to see if we could meet up with them. He was pretty snarky: "aephi alum has this sorority reunion thing that she decided she (a) wants to go to and (b) wants to drag me along to, so..." I am NOT dragging him along - I left it up to him, and he chose to go!

I think he's having a little trouble understanding why I'd want to go socialize with a bunch of women I've never met. It's not like they're my sisters or anything!

Tell me I'm not alone ...
