feeling left out in my sorority
by: ???I feel left out in my sorority. I talk to everyone and I'm friendly, but I still somehow get the run around when it comes to hanging out or meeting up for chapter events. There's nothing but cliques and it's stressing me out. Part of why I joined was to meet like-minded girls and build these amazing friendships with them, and so far that hasn't worked out. How long does it take to build these relationships? I love my organization and I'm super proud to be a part of it, but I can't help but think that maybe dropping would be good... I don't want to, but maybe I'm in the wrong sorority or maybe it just isn't for me.

I feel/felt the same way and it's slowly getting better (but only with some girls, that other person was right, it's hard to really bond with over 100 girls). It's just kinda weird since during recruitment everyone is extra welcoming and extra peppy, and they mellow out after. You really just have to transition in and try to hang out with a few at a time, I'm gonna assume you're initiated but if you're not, I think you can move to accept your bid in the spring if you want more time to think about it and adjust. I hope it works out for you! And I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one

You know. If you are really miserable and you don't see it getting better, you can drop - people do it. Some go through rush the next year and find a better fit. But there is no guarantee.

I'm not initiated yet. I just joined, and yes, I got my first choice. It's just so hard seeing and hearing about everyone hanging out, and when I invite people out they just blow me off and do the same thing with other sisters. It feels like middle school again, awkward and uncomfortable at times. I can afford my dues, so I'm going to give it some more times. The issue was addressed at our last chapter and apparently it took my older sister a whole calander year to find her niche. Being here isn't something I regret. I feel like it's only going to benefit me and push me to do better. New, did you just join? I knew I wasn't the only one who felt this way, but it's always ao nice hearing someone express the same feelings.
