If someone believes in the deepest depths of their heart that it's ABC or DEATH then they should probably go with that cos there is nothing anybody but ABC can do for you after that if that's how you are going to look at it. I personally didn't do it because I knew I could be happy anywhere, but not everyone can. I hope I didn't come off as rude or whatever, but these girls are out there and I just want to better explain my point. And that is why I feel that SIP may not always be a bad option.

The problem lies in PNM's getting too far along before "keeping an open mind". Often, PNM's have a ton of options, so they just ignore a group on their list that they don't really like. When it comes to pref night, that group is on their list along with one they like, and they want to SIP, because they have not been giving the other group a chance all along.
