So walking away when someone you don't like shows up is 5th gradish?

One thing she did was constantly get annoyed with me in my senior year in HS over the slightest things, constantly getting the teacher on me and everything, and then this year when I saw my guy friends sitting with this girl and said hi to the guy friend she looked at me, i waved, and she looked back and waved in a sort of insincere manner.

I'm very serious about people being insincere with me and all that.

This thread has to be shens.

Just grow up and deal with it. The world is full of people you aren't going to like, and you still have to work with them. I'm 19 and I realize that, so it shouldn't be too much of a stretch for you.

P.S. As said before, I doubt the majority of social fraternities would be for you. Try some other things first, such as intramural sports or even just pick-up games.

My Prediction:
One year later, OP posts "OMG I thought this girl hated me but she actually really liked me which is why she kept trying to annoy me!!! She's so immature!"
Two years later, OP posts "OMG I had sex with this girl. Do I have the HIV?"
Three years later, OP posts "OMG I'm engaged!!!"

😕


Uhh, why did you wave at her? It sounds like you were being insincere too.

Anyway, she probably thought you were being insincere, so her defense mechanism triggered to wave back, but less-than-sincere as well.


Women are anything but subtle.

Alright, I've just gone through my first week of being on a college campus, and to be honest its been really tough due to me not knowing anyone except for some of my dorm floor mates and the people from my old HS that have decided to attend the same university as I'm going to.

Well dormwise my floormates like to get together in one of the rooms and play UFC 2009 Undisputed, which i haven't joined in yet, but might do so later on.

I'm also currently part of a christian organization on campus, but am reconsidering whether or not to stay in it or jump to another christian organization since even though i like the people in it, a girl from my high school years who i dislike has joined the organization as well.

I've considered joining a fraternity on college as well, but the whole drinking party thing is repulsive to me and even if i did go it'd probably get old after the first two.

So my questions are as follows:


1. Should i even consider joining a fraternity or should i just attend the free rush events and then pass given the above information?

2. If I do decide to join a fraternity, what does one have to do in order to get accepted on Bid Day?

3. Should i jump ship from my current christian organization to another one due to that one person i dislike or should i just stay in it and just ignore her? The other people are cool, its just that one person i don't like. She doesn't really have a high opinion of me either, and the organization is affiliated with a church that she attended in her HS days.
