Ask him that if he's that unhappy with his fraternity, has he done anything to try to change it or thought of dropping out instead of constantly complaining. If he just kind of hems and haws and doesn't give you an answer, then just drop it.
The same with anyone else who's unsupportive. Just say "thanks for your opinion, but I'm going to go through it and check it out for myself. I would rather do that than wonder about it. If I don't like it, I can always drop out." Then CHANGE the subject.
p.s. thanks for the quote.  |
Not to be mean, but I think it was the second one. Every time I ask him about things like Date Dashes or Serenading, he always comes back with, "We are too small to do anything or get noticed."
He has considered dropping, actually.
And, that's what I tell people pretty much verbatim.
I mean, people are supportive in the fact that most of them have stopped bashing the Greek System, but I know that every time I talk to them they don't really want to hear it. That, and my mom keeps saying things that are like.. she really doesn't want me to go through with it, but she doesn't want to come out and say that.
And you're very welcome.
