I almost quit recruitment when I was in your situation last year, but after talking to my mom I picked myself up and headed to pref. I was nervous and reluctant but determined to be Greek, even if it wasn't at one of the chapters I originally wanted. I focused on the groups I did have, and received a bid to my (new) second choice. Did I have what-if moments? Sure. For a little while, every time I met a girl from a different chapter that I hit it off with, or had a moment of feeling left out, I wondered what happened, or what could have been. But I realized that, quite frankly, I was being a bit of an idiot with my attitude before rush, and any time I spent worrying about other chapters was time that I could have spent throwing myself headfirst into my new home and falling deeper in love with it. And I did fall in love with it, after becoming super-involved and attending every event possible. (You can fall in love after having another group break your heart; you just might have to work at it. Don't be upset because you expected it to "just happen," it doesn't always work that way). The whole "you'll end up where you belong" thing is true - it's just that sometimes where you THINK you belong is not where you actually DO.
