I think I made a mistake.

Those women should be blamed for their behavior?? Especially when it has been clearly stated that these women want their little sisters to prosper and live up to a certain standard.

I take responsibility for being naive as I said. I take responsibility for making the wrong choice and joining the organization. I take responsibility for allowing this to become something that I regret.

Also, I spoke in past tense. Maybe you missed that. I've changed as a person and that is what brought about the realization that the people I surrounded myself with at that point were not a positive influence on me.

I don't find telling me to "suck it up" helpful, but thank you anyway.

Um, blaming the "older" sisters for what YOU chose to do is not taking responsibility nor is it being mature.

Did they put a gun to your head and force you to go out? Did they put a gun to your head and force you to drink?

Unless the answer is "yes" to those questions, you need to grow the hell up and stop blaming your sisters for the CHOICES that YOU made!

You CHOSE to go out an party. You CHOSE to drink. You CHOSE not to focus on your academics.

You want out of your sorority and you want to put the blame on them instead of yourself.

If you hate it so damn much, go to your standards advisor, turn in your pin and all your letters and resign your membership.

You aren't going to get any sympathy here, because you are blaming your sisters and that chapter for the choices that you made.
