Talk about torture! I have to know how this ends!!!!
I'm glad it turned out that Eric wasn't your favorite, so that you weren't second-guessing your decision not to COB. I think it was smart of you to wait until you got to your new school, both because all chapters have different personalities and because I don't think it would've really been fair to the Erics at your old school if you pledged, got initiated, and then transferred out the next semester. And, as it turned out (or it will if you finish the story!!!), you made the right choice!
