why did you pretend to like me

by: Dropped PNM

Why do the sorority woman have to be fake to me and tell me that they think I'm so cool just so I can be dropped the next morning? Why do they have to bring my hopes up just so I can be crushed and crying in the morning? Rush has given me so many trust issues. If you claim to be genuine and authentic don't pretend to like me so much.

Must be earned. You shouldn't throw all your trust away on a person you have just met, even in a social situation.

Look at it this way. The girl(s) you met might have really thought you were cool. They might have felt an immediate bond with you. They might have been pulling for you in their voting sessions, but all these chapters are large, and all members in good standing have a vote.

Don't think the girl(s) you met just sold you a crock of bull. If someone comes to your home are you cordial to them? Do you try to make them feel welcomed and at home? You are visiting the college homes of these girls. They are going to try and make everyone feel welcomed.

If you have invitations to any pref parties go. These girls did want you. They saw qualities in you they admired. Give them a chance. If you don't feel the love after the parties, don't sign your MRABA card. Try COB or find an non-Greek club/activity to get involved in.

Did you get released or just dropped from a house you wanted?

They could have actually really liked you. Whether you move on or not is a group decision, not only that girl you talked to. Sometimes girls we really love get cut against our wishes for whatever reason. And even if that girl DID decide you weren't right for the house, doesn't mean she didn't like you herself, just that she felt you wouldn't have really felt at home there.

You also have to remember that it's the girl's jobs to be extremely friendly and welcoming, it's part of rush. They're even like to that to girls they know they are going to cut because why wouldn't you be friendly to them? The downside is that every year girls get their hearts crushed. They should warn girls better before rush for this imo.


Rush sucks, it does. For everyone. It can cut you down but at the end of the week you'll find the house where everyone was insistent on having you and it'll be worth it. You may be disappointed the house you thought was perfect for you dropped you but later you might see how wrong you were. I know I did for the house I loved that cut me before Pref.

Don't take it personally. She probably did like you. The numbers are so high, we cut many girls we liked but for whatever reason didn't score high enough to keep. It's tough to weed through 2000 girls! You will find a place!

We did like you! I loved you and thought you would be a great fit! I wanted you to be my sister. I spoke in support of you and got others to see how great you would be with us. I did all I could in support of you. But it wasn't enough because it's not just up to me. I am one vote out of the whole chapter, and I can influence my close friends and some other sisters to vote with me, but in the end it wasn't enough and there are other factors beyond our control; mine and yours. My heart was broken too when I found out you wouldn't be coming back to us. Please don't think you weren't good enough, or that you did anything wrong. You are great, and i know you are hurting, but please know that I am too.

Are there chapters that still actually vote as a whole? Or is there a room that makes all the decision?

Welcome to Greek life at Fsu
A completely fake life of superficial judgmental shallow people whose main goal is to be popular . The burden to keep up often results in eating disorders, anxiety and alcohol abuse. Aren't you glad you spent a week preparing for this?

After 4 years I actually do know honey
My comments are the reality of everything I've seen and the issues my friends in various chapters have dealt with. Maybe it's a dark view but truthful and hidden. Sorry to burst your Pollyanna sugar coated portrayal of Greek life but it's not uncommon unfortunately. With that said there are also pluses but I question was it worth the drama daily
