Because on the whole, Greeks have more social opportunities and functions with organizations involving members of the opposite sex. They also have more rigid time commitments. Gina GDI can take off any weekend to go see her boyfriend with no problem, but Susie Sorority may have meetings, homecoming practice etc. This is more true of sororities than fraternities IMO.
The good: You have someone for dated functions. You can go to a mixer and just have fun and it's not about "OMG MUST FIND FORMAL DATE NOW." You have someone caring to go to when you get tired of sorority drama.
The bad: You have commitments you can't break to be w/ him. There are honestly more temptations to stray because you are around guys more. I'm not going to BS you about that. But that doesn't mean you have to give in. On the other hand, no one wants a sister who won't even talk to another guy at a mixer or even go to a mixer because she or her boyfriend thinks it's "cheating." They're no fun to be around.
All I can say is if your boyfriend respects your commitment to and your love for your sorority it has a better chance of working out. But if he doesn't, it probably won't.
