I think what kddani was reacting to, and what I felt also, is that you made AI sound common and easy to do. The reality is that many sororities don't do AI at all or limit it to a tiny number of initiates a year. Even sororities that do AI semi-regularly don't recruit and it's still very hard to become an AI.
Truthfully, for a lot of women in this lady's situation, this is the end of the road in terms of joining a GLO and it is not considered GC practice to just say "Oh well... try AI!" A lot of people do it because they think it is less mean than acknowledging what has happened. It really isn't. We need to acknowledge that not getting an invitation to membership is disappointing and we need to encourage ladies to look at the bigger picture. I think adpiufc's comment was great! She encouraged sheisaprincess to look at where a GLO is in the great scheme of things and that not being a member doesn't mean that you can't enjoy many of the same experiences and bond with other women thru other organizations.
