To get the thread back on track...
I joined for many reasons, none of which I think I was conscious of at the time:
(1) When I was in Junior High we moved cross-country and I left a really close best friend behind. I never really felt that close to the friends I met in high school and really longed for that kind of friendship with a girlfriend, again.
(2) I had a disasterous break-up in the spring of my senior year with a "first love." Honestly, I'm talking about one of the worst break ups ever. This made me much more interested in friendships than in the college dating scene for my freshman year.
(3) My parents got divorced the summer right before college started and I think I unconsciously was looking for a stable support group that I could count on (because my parents were hit and miss on providing support at the time).
I think that there were also some minor superficial reasons too, if I'm being totally honest about it. I remember thinking at the time that I wanted to be a leader on campus and didn't want to be out-of-the-loop on social events and thought being in a sorority would be a good way to do that.
