I realized that I didn't like this house for the wrong reasons. So I expressed to the president that I would like my bid back since bids are good for one whole year. she was so excited. she had me talking to the new member coordinator and invited me to dinner. they said they were going to get my process started but I should still come out to their spring events to meet other girls. I had a good time with allthe girls I talkd, one girl even held me up all night.well after I saw them give bids to bout 4 girls I talked to the prez agin and now she is saying they only give girls 1-2 days to accept a bid and she is not required to give me my bid back. well the greek office says different, they say I can have my bid back and there's nothing anyone can do about it.I ve tried talking to the prez more but I think she purposely ignore my phone calls even thoug she offered me her number. I had a friend in there who was shocked about this and offered to talk to the prez herself, but now I think she might be ignoring me because she didn't get back to me. lol. I don't understand the change. this house is severely under total, my grades are up and I don't go out so there is no bad rep surrounding me, and they chose me before. it just seems unfair to bind me to a bid and prevent me from joining a house I did like if u are not going to give me a chance.I am tempted to just to settle this through the greek office but I would hate to go over the presidents head, how can I handle this? do anyone have advice on rather I should go through the office or not?
If you had accepted your bid and dropped after a few days, I think then and only then would you be entitled to return b/c you are bound to that bid for a year (since you accepted it)..HOWEVER, since you chose to decline your bid, you are not bound to it, thus that house does NOT have to take you back if they dont want to.
