Advisor needs advice

Yeah, I am "technically" an advisor. I received my letter of acceptance from HQ and everything. The letter directed me to get the proper paperwork from thte chapter, the stuff that was not available from the website. I am meeting with my alumnae chapter this week and the DF will be there. I have voiced my concern to them but I will be more detailed and clear with what is going on. The main reason I posted was to get another POV since national reps are more business oriented, where honestly I kind of feel slighted from these girls. They are my sisters and I don't want to feel uncomfortable around them.
Thanks for all the advice!

What kind of advisor? You seem pretty fuzzy on the details here. Why did you get a letter of acceptance from HQ? Acceptance to be an advisor? Did you apply? What paperwork from the chapter?

Before I worried about how the girls are treating you, I would figure out what exactly your role is supposed to be. You don't seem to have any idea of what your role with the chapter is actually supposed to be. Straighten that out first!

I understand that you're upset that that girls are brushing you off. I can see where they're coming from, as you've been a sister for less time than the vast majority of sisters in the chapter, and now you're coming in and want to tell them what to do, etc. Especially since you don't even seem to know what you're doing (which isn't your fault, that's okay, but you gotta see it from their point of view as well).
