Cut because you're "too good"?

This thread is one big "Intimidated by my hotness" joke waiting to happen.

I was totally waiting for that...

I would distinguish between a PNM who flat out says, "I only want X and feel like I am wasting my time at your party" (or who makes it evident without words) and one who we assume would prefer a top tier or core four or whatever sorority. I don't think many chapters would waste their time on the first girl. We have dignity, and who wants someone rude anyway? (It's funny, the PNMs with that attitude so often end up suiciding and going bidless.)

If we had PNMs come in acting better than everyone else, acting disinterested, or stating that they would be joining "XYZ" chapter (and yes that did happen!) they may have not been invited back to the following round because there are so many girls who are interested, being themselves and giving all the chapters a chance -- why waste an invite on someone who clearly doesn't want to be there?

Very true...but it still goes back to the fact that she's being released b/c of her attitude/actions, not because the group actually thought she was "too good for them."

There may be girls who you suspect might go to certain chapters just based on a gut feeling, but are still generally pleasant throughout rush. Unless you're being pressured to make big cuts b/c of release figures, you're not likely to get rid of them just because they "look like" they'd go ABC or XYZ.

So, basically if they do not fit, then they do not!

So, we as GLOs are Bad?

All this time I thought I had been cut from a few sororities because I was a sophomore - but no! I was too good! They were . . . (everybody say it) INTIMIDATED BY MY HOTNESS.
