Not automatically but it is usually around the corner. If he had broadly said they didn't want to do a social with her chapter the OP probably would've kept saying "why...why...but why...explain...we are a good chapter...tell me what happened...what's wrong."

Is he really an idiot for thinking that? LOL. GLO cultures vary but there are GLO members who believe certain chapters leave a lot to be desired. These GLO members aren't automatically idiots based on this belief.

If someone thinks they are too good for my friends, that's definetly a deal breaker for me! Maybe she isn't the type of person who cares about "tiers" and doesn't want to be with someone who does. The context here is greek life but the "tier" people can be found in every walk of life.

He's not an idiot for thinking it, he's an idiot for saying it. If I say my mom is a fashion impaired fruitcake that's one thing...if my boyfriend of a few months says it that's another.

He should've kept his thoughts to himself. That makes sense. I'm not being sarcastic.

Or he could be a "gentleman" and say "your mother is quite nice and she has a different style of dress that only lends itself to those who understand her inability to grasp fashion." I'm being sarcastic.

Winterstar, I don't know the size of the OP's chapter but unless the chapter is relatively small (like some of ours are), the OP isn't necessarily friends (beyond close acquaintances) with everyone in the chapter. Are the chapter members the OP's only friends? If the OP has other friends with whom the boyfriend gets along quite well, I see no problem with him disliking her chapter sisters. Because, again, I hope this Greek thing is only a microcosm of their relationship.
