But now I keep asking myself if this is where I want to be? Dont get me wrong I LOVE AKA and all it stands for and would LOVE to be a part of it, but I feel like I'd pledge out of family expectation. My mom has said that I should pick the sorority thats right for ME but I cant think of pledging another sorority without feeling like I'm committing treason.
Has anyone else felt this way?

If you had done some observing and read some of the posts that say "Read this before posting" or something like that, you would've known that discretion is key and it wasn't necessary to name a particular organization in order to get some advice. Also, If you knew as much as you think you know about the org you speak of you would know that your mom is one, not "was" one since membership is for life. Many members chose the organizations of their family members and many did not. Research all 4 of the NPHC sororities so you can make an informed decision. The decision is too important to simply do now and ask questions later and you certainly can't change your mind down the road. Bottom line: it's no big deal if you choose to pursue an organization other than your mother's. People do it all the time.
