If that is the way you want to view it...is your prerogative.

Personally, I don’t see it that way. A member of a GLO after some time and heartbreak, Pm’ed her with an opportunity that I think most would explore, I am sure they knew her situation. It looks like she fit with the AC and the rest is history. AI is about getting into that organization, but its also about fitting in WITH THE ALUMNAE CHAPTER, no matter how much you know that a GLO is for you, if you don’t fit with the AC you are not going to be offered the opportunity to pursue AI in that org. PERIOD.

Am not going to argue the point, I keep repeating myself. As much as AI and new member recruitment is not the same, in a lot of ways it is the same. I see nothing wrong with looking around and finding the group that fits you and the group believing that the potential AI fits them. She made a list, unless you know 100% that her org is not on that list, you can’t say…AI for the sake of AI, that is an insult to her, me and a lot of AIs and potential AIs.

Untilyou walk a mile in someone’s shoes, you can not say you know what they’ve gone through.

We can also agree to disagree.
