Sorors, SFs, One & All

[TRYIN HARD]

Also, I must add everyone knows for a fact that some girls have all the credentials and are not chosen simply because someone doesn't like them. At an HBCU girls were so petty. Some girls didn't get chosen because they dated an Alpha, or the ex-boyfriend of a Delta, because they were overweight, etc. I also knew a girl that was on line to be a Delta, while running to be the university queen. After she lost the competition the Deltas dropped her from her line, as if to say we don't want a loser on our line. All of you can deny it, but a lot of pettiness goes along with this process, and I hate to say it, but it's because women are known for being catty and hatin' on one another. Don't get me wrong, I think your organization is filled with greatness, but the pledging process for all GLO is often filled with a lot of BS.

^^^ First of all you responded to a post that is a year old. Second, you have made some bad assumptions. Third, and yes I am insensitive, someone with an attitude like yours needs not to join any BGLO. And last, maybe you should transfer to a PWI.

So, and I don't care if it is a year old. I haven't made any bad assumptions, I have seen these things happen to people that's all. But, I'm the one with the attitude.

Have some respect please. You can't insult members of an organization and expect them not to respond. Whatever you observed at your school is only hearsay to the members here and you can't say anything about a membership intake process being petty or BS since you haven't gone thru such a process yourself.

Also, many of the members on this board are not undergrads. Many are alumnae members, some of which who have been active in their organizations for 15, 20, 30 years and you could learn a whole lot from them. Our members are different people with different opinions so just because someone says something that you don't like, it doesn't mean you should attack the entire organization. I take it that you joined greekchat to interact with members of the organization that you one day hope to be a part of. Don't mess that up.

Based on what you posted you have made some bad assumptions. Unless you were behind the closed doors of the chapter, you are missing vital background information. And there are always two, sometimes three sides to a story.

Oh and very honestly, I am being nice.

As my sistergreeks have already stated, you aren't helping your case AT ALL. You have a bad taste in your mouth because you can't deal with rejection. It's a part of life and while I didn't receive a rejection letter, there have been times when I was rejected. Did I come to post my disgust of the GAP, or it's affiliates? The first undergraduate university I applied to? The first job I interviewed for? NO. Rejection means look and see what you need to improve upon and if it's for you or in your heart, try again.

So I really want to respond sensibly however I think right now you are very BITTER with rejection so you probably would be on the defense about anything I say so with that being said I will try to respond to the best of my ability. If you were not chosen for the line at your school for whatever reason it is something you have to deal with.Either you try again or you sit back and hate on those who made it. However commenting on a PLEDGE PROCESS you clearly know NOTHING about is not the way to get my sorors or anyone else to offer advice that may help you in your quest to greekdom.
