PLEASE don't wish she pledges. If she asks questions like this, we may have to 'pledge' her! (just kidding ).

Try introducing your woman/wife to other frat's wives; maybe she would then get the hint that she shouldn't be so nosy (they will school her, for sure )!

My non-Greek husband asks questions sometimes and I just smile then he knows to back off because if I wanted to answer his question then I would.
