Having trouble fitting in with my brothers

Hey everyone,

I'm new to the forums (long time lurker, first time poster). I just recently started pledging a fraternity; it's been about a week now and I'm just not feeling like I fit in with anyone. It's not that there's anything wrong with the guys, but I don't feel like I belong there. I rushed 3 fraternities, and I got bids to two of them- the one I'm in now, and another one that's a colony. The way we do bids here though is that you'll get a phone call from a brother telling you to meet somewhere at a certain time, and there's a small ceremony and you get your bid card then, and they ask if you accept. I got a call from the fraternity I'm in now telling me to meet them somewhere at 10:00, and I didn't get a call from the other fraternity until around 10:15, at which point I had my cell phone turned off because of the ceremony that was going on. I definitely felt more comfortable in the other fraternity at rush, and I honestly only accepted the bid to my current fraternity because I thought it was the only one I got accepted to.

So I guess my question is, should I stick with this one and just try to make the most of it, or should I pursue the other fraternity? I talked to a friend who's in the other fraternity (he has an important position in it, but I forget what it is specifically), and he said they do open bids throughout the semester, and that he'd let me know when they're doing events that are open to brothers and people who aren't brothers so I can check them out more that way.

Thanks in advance for your advice
