Greek hook-ups to Dating?

Dreamerchick · #1 07-12-2001, 02:55 AM

Just a curious question... for both guys and girls.
Has anyone started off to have physical based relationship (no attachments yet) with a greek guy/girl and it has led to more? As in he/she became your boy/girlfriend??

Or hasn't?

I just want to see the response because I'm kinda stuck in one.

Well, I have to admit that yeah...I'm guilty of that one. I love telling this story, so here goes!! The second semester of my freshman year I had an art class with this guy I had went to high school with. We had never really talked...okay, NEVER TALKED!! He was a couple grades ahead of me but I knew who he was cause all the girls in my class just thought he was the hottest thing. Anyway, this guy and I end up having this class together and because neither one of us even had a clue who anyone else was in the class, we ended up sitting together. (He had went to the University of Kentucky prior to coming to Morehead so he was pretty new there just as I was) Both of us were dating someone at the time so of course something happening between us was never even given a second thought. Well, we eventually became really great friends. He was probably my best guy friend really!! We would talk the whole time we had class, and he would drive me to my dorm sometimes after class. (he lived off campus) Finally our first test came around and we arranged to study together. He came and got me and I went to his house. This is when he told me that he wasn't happy with his girlfriend who he had been with for over 2 and a half years. I thought they were going to get married myself...but he told me he had plans to break up with her. Well, finally him and I began to flirt around and that very night he kissed me. Both of us thought it would be really awkward later but it wasn't. Within the next couple of days he broke up with his girlfriend, but I still had a boyfriend who I wasn't happy with at all!! I know, this is bad, but for the next couple of months I would go over to his house to "study" and him and I would end up making out. Eventually I ended up breaking up with my boyfriend. This other guy and I starting seeing each other exclusively. A year and a half later, we are now engaged!!!

My first semester away at school...I learned about true college women. I did the hook-up thing with this chick who was the president of Sigma Kappa at my school. Anyway, we had a lot of fun and I even went to her sororities date dance. I got to know lots of girls in her house and hung out there a lot. I started to develop feelings for her just as she decided that she was done with me. I was sad, but I got over it and we are still friends.

It happens but very rarely. Once you hook-up with someone, the thrill is usually gone bc they got everything they wanted. My advice is that if you really like a guy then don't kiss him (or do anything else...) right away. It'll make him more interested. The guys I have met LOVE the chase.

I have to say that because the social scene for fraternity guys usually involves sorority girls and vice versa, relationships among greeks is not uncommon at my school. I hooked up with a bunch of girls from different sororities over the past few years, but sustaining the random hook-up into an all out relationship really depends on how well you know each other. If it's just a booty call hook up from then on in, it's not going to turn into anything. But honestly, if you have feelings for a guy/girl, at least try to see if it will work. Don't make regrets in life, nothing hurts more than wondering "what if?" Goodluck!

I made out with my bf the first night- I know bad- we were both a little tipsy(for all you none greeks- Greeks do not always drink) Anyway we spent almost every day together after that. He was the first guy to follow through and actually call when he said he would. anyway he dumped me in June.
I wouldn't reccomend random hook ups. Especially if your Greek community is tight bc believe me everyone finds out. the horrible thing is someoen thought I had sex with him that night! AHHH!!! No sirree! I will admit kissing is fun especially when they are cute fraternity guys, but a physical attraction can't make a relationship last!
