Hey, BlackAdam06, it's not just you, frat. I've been on both sides of the fence. I've been non-greek and dated greek sisters, I've been greek and dated non-greek sisters, and I've been greek and dated greek sisters. It's not like I'm new to the fold--I come from three generations of Alphas, my mom is a charter member Zeta and my sister is AKA. In my personal experience, a sister being in a sorority doesn't make her any better than a non-greek sister. I've dated some GLO as well as non-greek sisters--some with issues and some with great personalities.

Being in a GLO doesn't wash away a person's personality flaws any more than eating a can of spinach will give you super strength, and being in a GLO won't make anyone any better of a person than before they crossed. I don't feel any different or better because I wear that black and gold. My circle of friends hasn't increased nor have my abilities to pull the ladies since I've always been pretty strong in both departments. I can say that I've befriended some exceptional brothers since being an Alpha that I wouldn't have otherwise met.

Basing someone's romantic elligibility on whether they're greek or not is not a luxury we as black people can afford, particularly our sisters. A brother can be greek and still have a criminal record. A brother can be greek and not have been financial for years. A brother can be greek and still have busted up credit. Sure, I've met many married couples that were both greek but there are millions more blacks out there that are non-greek than the ones that are. All I'm saying is this: Instead of worrying about if someone is greek, and if they are greek then, worrying about if they're in a specific GLO--whether they're making six figures, in a certain social circle, driving a certain kind of car, living in a certain class of neighborhood, are a certain shade of black or a certain height, what should be important is LOVE, COMPATABILITY, TRUST.
