MomofPNM11 - You know that I am pulling for you and "Lindsey." Hang in there with parties today and the week long wait! I am so glad that I didn't have to go through that!
I agree that the rejection aspect of recruitment is one of the hardest things to deal with as a PNM (and I am sure as a parent as well - thank goodness my legacy is young and I have a little time to work on that). For most of these young ladies, it could be the first time that they didn't achieve something that they really wanted. It also is hard if you are comparing yourself to those around you, like your gamma chi group or friends that you have made at college. If they seem to get all their favorites inviting them back each round, girls do feel the "what did I do wrong" or "what did XYZ not see in me." Understanding a little about RFM helps the head, but not always the heart. The only advice I can really say is be confident in yourself, bloom where you are planted, and be the change you want to see in your group. Take it from me, the faster you can get over being rejected in any aspect of life (sorority, job, etc); the faster you get to exactly where you are supposed to be in life. Looking forward to hearing more!
