In our chapter we take it to an even more drastic extreme. We don't allow anyone to even wear our letters. Lavelering is not an option in our house. Once a year we elect sweethearts @ White Rose and those are the only women outside of Fiances, Wives, Mothers, and Sisters that are allowed to wear letters or the badge, in these situations they most be given to the woman by her connection to the Fraternity. We have had situations in the past where brothers were dating the younger/older sister of a fellow brothers and the dating brother made the mistake of giving a set of letters (Sweatshirt)to the sister (thinking it would be ok because she was another bros sister). Our initial chapter involvement in a relationship is singing to the new bride on her wedding day.
To each chapter their own I guess.
Good luck with your relationship, a little over a year into my marriage I can say, with all of my heart, that proposing to my wife was the greatest decision of my life and with out te Greek System we would have never meet.
