At least thats what my mom told me, she could have been trying to make me feel better.
I would wager this was a big part of the problem, with your size being another problem, as well as the 15 recs. to your legacy chapter, with perhaps a sprinkling of attitude from you that you had already found your home in your legacy chapter, but as others have said, there is no way for those of us not present at membership selection to know, and even it we did, we would not share that information.

Is there a way to get your mom to chill without starting WWIII? Could you ask a trusted adult to help keep her occupied during recruitment? Maybe she and some of her friends could go to St. George, Seaside or Rosemary Beach for the week of recruitment? She needs to stay out of the recruitment situation so that maybe you will have a chance with another chapter.

If you participate in recruitment this year, DO NOT have 15 recs. sent to your legacy chapter-a couple should suffice. You should have a couple of recs. per sorority for the other chapters. Act interested in learning about the other sororities. DO NOT act like you know everything about your mom's sorority (although I am sure that you know pretty much everything except ritual).

Hopefully your GPA is good and you got involved on campus. That and your weight loss, dressing to flatter your body type, looking put together, being friendly, interested and interesting will help you find a place in one of the fantastic chapters at FSU.
