If members know you personally as you say then that is a good thing. Those could help you out a lot. Why would you think you would be automatically dropped? But you must keep in mind a couple of things: 1) them telling you that they really like you and could see you as a member and hoping that things work out that way is NOT the same as bid promising. Bid promising is saying "you are getting a bid" which really doesn't happen despite what you read on here, so don't think that they are leading you down the garden path, they are just rushing like they should; and 2) invitations and bids are not up to the small group of people you have met and no matter how much they like you, the chapter will decide as a whole (however they do it in their chapter) and the algorithm will dictate the number they can invite back each round. The members who like you should fight for you and it depends on how much influence/respect they have in their chapter as to how much they can help. To summarize: it sounds like you are doing great so keep it up, and they may really love you and want you and encourage you to love and want them back, but the chapter, the exec, and their RFM numbers are a factor too. You sound mature and well-spoken and any house would be lucky to have you.
