Did you choose the wrong sorority?

[tallllchick]

sadly I think I did

Well I don't know. I just don't really bond well with people at my sorority. When I rushed, the sorority I wanted to be in turned me down on the 2nd day (skit day). Recently I kept on wondering if things would be different if I was in that sorority, or any others really.

I know this is sad, but these days I have been thinking about dropping out of my sorority. But I'm gonna be a senior...and I know rushing again as a senior is like almost impossible

blahh.

If you have already been initiated, recruitment is not an option for you.

And, what you put into something is what you get out of it. If you haven't made an effort to get to know your sisters and spend time with them outside of chapter/mandatory events, it's not a wonder why you haven't bonded with them.

If you are initiated into a NPC sorority re-rushing is not an option.

I am sorry you haven't had a better experience. However, you cannot unring that bell. Your best bet now is to stop playing the "What if. . ." game, and do your best to be active in your chapter and try to bond with a few sisters. It may be that after you graduate you will find a terrific alumnae chapter.

Assuming this is about NPC sororities...

If you've already been initiated, you won't be able to join another sorority anyway.

LOL we all posted around the same time.

I love my sorority through and through, but I too, often wonder what would have happened if I had gone to another school. There are quite a few NPC sororities that I would have loved to have been a part of (solely based on research and knowing members of them), but my ala mater only had 2 and only one was NPC. I often find myself seeing pictures of other chapters, whether it be of my sorority or another, and wishing I was a part of that or had what they have.
I did not have a "normal" greek or college experience because of the school I went to, but I tried to make the most of it. Looking back, I could have tried harder and that is something I have to come to terms with; shouldn't have worried so much about sleeping the night before a test instead of making memories with my sisters! lol
I often find myself sad, and down&out about not having the experience I wanted. But, it had nothing to do with the sorority itself. It was just the atmosphere and how things are and are not done at my school.
I now try to put a lot of energy and time in to help the current active sisters of my chapter with anything they need. Throwing out ideas, buying little gifts, etc. It is what you make of it, even as an alumna. So, I want to feel involved and I'll admit, at times I want to feel like I am still a part of it (at the collegiate level).
Do I regret my choice? No. It may not have been the "ideal" situation with a bunch of chapters to essentially chose from, but I loved the women in the chapter when I joined and I loved what Alpha Gamma Delta stood for. I still do and I forever will. <3
