Is it just me? I love the idea of being in a sorority but I’m in my second semester and frankly I’m not feeling the sisterhood. My pledge class is cliquey- there’s no “sister” behavior- it feels like work. My friends are all people I’ve met outside the sorority and when we have events I have to scramble to find someone to go with unless it’s a date function- I can always find a guy for that but my own “sisters”? Idk. I was really looking forward to being close to these girls but I’m ready to give up.

Which sorority

By: ?
by: Scramble.    

As a graduating senior. , I had the same experience as you. It happens. I am in a house that is suppose to have a good sisterhood. I got over the whole thing. I realize these girls are not my friends At all. Nor do I give a flip either. If they were truly my friends they would not treat me the way they do. I even had my whole pledge class go out to eat before rush. I was not invited. I show up to things and find out they had a party before but I am never invited. I just stop going by the house. The whole sorority thing is so over rated! This is something you have to fiwure out on your own! I feel bad for you!

Sometimes you don’t really click. A lot of people find their true friend group this semester of beginning of fall. Many girls in the pledge class above me have said the same thing. Don’t lose faith

You really think you can just buy friends? You have to put effort into making friendships they don’t just happen after bid day. Stick through it and you’ll make friends. Take a position and make a change or help organize something to get yourself known. Don’t just wait for it to happen.

You’re not alone ! Literally so many girls end up dropping their sorority as sophomores or juniors because it just feels so fake and so freshman !

In a true top. It is awful. Such bs. HS again. I do not get to invited to lots of stuff. As a senior I barely go by the house. These girls are not my friends. I finally get it. I did not try to buy my friends. Do not want to go out And get blackout drunk. Greek life at Uf is so over rated. I should have dropped after my freshman year.

Not everyone is going to click. Rush isn’t a perfect selection process. We all know PNMs lfocus on sorority rankings when making their selections, and members pick new girls without knowing them well. Realistically, 250 members aren’t going to all be best friends. But, if you can’t find 5 or 6 really good friends out of 250 other girls, it’s your own fault. You either picked a sorority that you shouldn’t have, or you haven’t been the friend to other girls that you expect them to be to you.

Honestly? I went with the lower “ranked” of my two choices because I thought I’d be happier

Girl I feel you, I didn't find my group of friends in my sorority until I was a JUNIOR. I lived in sophomore year and thought it would help me get closer to the girls (and it did a little bit), but I still felt like every time I would feel like I was becoming good friends with someone she would go off with her own main group of friends that I wasn't a part of, and I never felt like I had any true friends and it was really hard. But once I kind of stopped trying so hard to invite myself to things and be involved in everything like they say to do, friendships started happening way more naturally and I realized there was actually a lot of girls aside from the girls living in the house who were in the same boat as me without a core friend group and I focused on them! Don't give up yet, don't dwell on what it would be like in another house, just relax about it and do your own thing with confidence, and people will gravitate towards you.

Thank you. I’m just going to volunteer at things and hope it becomes natural. I have friends- just not in my house

That says it is my fault. Shut up please. You have no
Idea how hard it has been. I tried to live on the house it only allows . I never got selected. I was never invited any where. I would showing for socials only to find out everyone went to a party before. I never was invited. I just stoppped going. If I inquired about a party I never got a response. So Hurtful. None of these sororitys at UF are perfect. Mine is far from
Perfect. I actually hate it!
