Apology for any offense taken

[anaballerina]

This was meant to be a PM, but I think everyone should read it:


When I first posted on GC, I meant to reflect the best side of my personality; not only so that I would gain the respect of the other people on the board, but so that I would show self-respect and respect for the sorority (if I were to get involved).

Though I've tried to uphold that for the most part, I do recall a few posts where I took that promise for granted. I was speaking as if I was some anonymous person whose words could never be linked to any organization, but in reality, I'm far from anonymous. I've shared plenty of information about myself, and given that decision to be as candid as I have, it has been of the utmost importance that I aspire to the ideals of the sorority.

I realize now that in my exchanges with some of the members on the board that I have caused a situation that has offended some sisters. Please know that this was not an act of flagrant disrespect on my part. Instead, the posts you read here were me becoming way too casual and I now know that it was inappropriate of me to do so.

Before I send this, I just want to ask everyone here the following: If you know my identity and were upset about my postings, please PM me. The last thing I want is for someone I know to be hurt and offended without me being able to apologize personally.

Regardless of whether anyone knows me, I owe all you girls an apology for not representing as I should.

P.S. This is my last public post with this name. I want those negative posts to fade into oblivion and never cause problems again.
