How dare they not point out the suckiness of her sorority! Damn, I guess we all need sensitivity training now....

OMFG great advice. To punish myself because I'm a victim I'm going to stay your sister, which really just punishes you!

I bet if you just come out and say, "I'm having trouble making it to mixers because of my appointments, but I'd like to do more with you guys," then organize something, which can be casual, like regular get-togethers for coffee or pizza or whatever with whoever can make it, people will be impressed that you took the initiative to get involved despite your difficulties.

To GEG--everyone has given you some very valuable advice and it sounds like you should use it. To think that the people here are being rude is making a huge assumption about folks. You didn't put in what was going on with you in your introduction and because of that you got mad when folks told you what you would need to do in order to help in rectifying the situation. I think that you need to look at the sound advice, eat a little crow, grow up, and jump in.
You have to be able to jump in the situation in order to improve the situation. Never assume that folks don't like you or don't know you if you haven't stopped, looked at what you are doing, and been more willing to do something for yourself. If you are this dissatisfied with your situation, stop and look at what have your actions been and what are your current actions now. See what it is that you can do to change the actions and others reactions to you.
At my school, we didn't have a house, and primarily everyone lived in dorms or in campus housing with the exception of those who lived off campus. However, we all learned how to come together and do what we needed to do for, with, and through each other. In a sorority, no you probably will not get along with every sister that you have. However, that is life, everyone that you meet, you probably won't get along, like, give a squirrel's nuts about, but if you have to work with them or be a part of a project with them, you do what you gotta do in order to get the work done. Such is the same with sorority life. If you feel that you cannot do that because of your medical issues, then that's one thing. However, if you feel that you can't do it because you DON'T WANT TOO, that's something else entirely! Again, look at what it is that you are WILLING to do for and within your sorority to determine if you are willing to not have to have the door hit you where the Good Lord split ya. You gotta look at what it is that you wanted from your sorority to begin with to determine if you need to remain there.

Good advice from everyone. That being said... is there anyone here who thinks the OP is actually still reading? She seemed to do a textbook flounce.

She's gone. Didn't get the answer she wanted so she is seeking out others who will.
