Thanks AXIDGIRL for your input..I think you're right about her being so skeptical because she doesnt really know whats going to happen.

No no, this is my decision. Im not sure that shes totally against it either, I just know she doesnt like the idea. Im not going to NOT rush because shes against it. I guess my concern is 2 issues:

1. I dont want to be forced to do anything against my own morals that would endanger my relationship with my girlfriend. Sounds crazy, but I really dont know what to expect. I've never pledged before...

2. If its gonna be really hard, I want to have a heads up. And why its gonna be hard.

I really appreciate everyones input... I would still like to get peoples experiances if your willign to share!

No group of fraternity guys is going to be able to compel you to go against strong convictions. They wouldn't have the leverage. If you have any kind of will power you will only do what you believe to be acceptable.

As far as hard. Don't be silly. The vast majority of people that pledge get in. Obviously it can't be "hard."

If the drop out rate was like 50% then maybe . . . You are not joining the SEALS. Relax.
