I have wanted to be in a sorority since I could say the word.
I actually got excited from hearing the girls singing and cheering...now what? I cant cry anymore, and I cant tell my friends at other schools who are in houses...now I hear the once cut always cut so I do not know if I should rush again. It is easy to be so cheerful once you make it in...but not so easy to feel like a piece of shit for really no reason that any one can tell me.I wish with all my heart that i knew how you feel...just try to walk in my shoes today

Once cut, always cut is not true for all groups on all campuses. 33girl has some good advice, and if you look at the recruitment stories you will find that you are hardly the first to have had a rough rush.

You can either feel sorry for yourself, or you can pick yourself up, get involved in campus, and see what sorority opportunities there are for you. There is a happy ending, whether it is joining a group or finding other avenues for yourself. Good luck. (and yes, let's move this)
