This school might have been right for you and my sister, but is not RIGHT FOR ME! Again I am not trying to rude or bitchy, but I feel I have to justify my decisions to everyone and its getting old. I still respect Greek Life very much and will probably rush again, even though my mom is not real keen on the idea because she is afraid I will get rejected again. I know this is a VERY BIG probability, but I know so much more now then I knew then and plan on going in with a different perspective. Thats it and I have to run
I think you're reading her wrong hun. She was addressing EGAOPi so she wouldn't keep bringing up stuff in your thread that happened forever ago. You are leaving school, so she was letting her know that whatever your feelings were about AEPhi, they're not relevant now for discussion, that's all. No need to get defensive.

First of all, I was addressing EGAOPi. As a new poster she's been replying to older threads and I wanted to give her a heads-up. You were bummed about recruitment and it seemed unecessary to dredge up this thread. So excuse me.

Second, you are the one putting yourself on the internet and sharing your information. I don't put much concern into why you're leaving your university-- it has nothing to do with me. LOL. You have your reasons, the means and the motivation. So do it.

Third, there's no need to feel like you have to justify yourself to internet handles. That being said, you've shared so much information about your thougths and feelings on GC that of course people are going to draw conclusions, correct or not. Clearly you do care what a bunch of strangers think about you or you wouldn't post that kind of personal information and then feel the need to defend yourself to those strangers for any of their perceived right or wrong interpretation of your motivations.

You shouldn't feel you have to justify anything to anyone. And you shouldn't read into everything you read on Greek Chat, or care what strangers think about you transferring out after a semester.

Well I apologize. Obviously I read into it wrong and I'm sorry.
