So second semester of my freshman year, I decided to rush so I could be part of all the fun. I had met friends of theirs from one of the sororities and I couldn't stand one of them so I didn't even go to their rush events. One sorority was pretty much non-existant- I think they had 5 members, so that one was out. That left two- AGD and another. I went to parties at both and the women at the other one never even spoke to me. Nobody picked me up at the door in rotations and I wandered around by myself the whole time. So I ended up pledging AGD.
He broke up with me the next fall and I met my first husband, a LXA, a few weeks later.
I'm facebook friends with the old prom date. He's the only ex boyfriend I've ever had who I would consider getting back together again. I still think he's really cute, 40 years later. I enjoy his sense of humor so much. He lives a couple hours away though. He was definitely my first love.

I never would have dreamed, when I wrote this, that just over a year later, he would be my fiance.
