My Girlfriend might be joining a sorority and I'm not sure what to think about that?
So me and my girlfriend met at the end of last school year but she is a year older than me so she's going to college this year while I'm a senior in high school. She isn't going that far off about 2 or 3 hours so she'll be home every weekend or so. However she might be joining a sorority and I'm just a little worried about it. I know the parties and stuff and I just don't want her in the middle of all that especially because the fraternities get really wild sometimes. I really do trust her and she's doesn't want to go to wild parties and stuff, she doesn't drink but still it worries me. She has to go to those parties to be a part of a sorority and it really worries me especially because I'm not there with her, I don't want to sound mean and tell her I think she shouldn't join one if she can because she really wants to be in one. I just need some help in my situation.

Let her know how you feel, and what you've found online about how those parties are, as well as how joining a sorority or fraternity has serious effects on academic success and even whether or not you graduate, and tell her that you can try long distance, but not with a sorority involved. End the relationship if she joins.

Sorry to say, but I think you better start detaching right now. You're right - you shouldn't try to control her. She's an adult now and should live her life the way she sees fit. And one thing she sees fit is joining a sorority. Well, as you say, sororities routinely have parties and many other social functions with fraternities. They're not always wild drunken orgies, but she'll definitely be spending lots of time with lots of guys who won't be bashful about asking her out.

Dude, break if off now. Tell her you're not into the ldr (long distance relationship) situation. Don't tell her you're doing it due to her joining a sorority. I was in a frat for a year, and I can tell you the sorority girls who were in ldrs were the most wild at parties. I hated that lack of morale on both the sorority girl cheating and the frat guys who have no respect for the girls ldr. You will save yourself heart ache by ending things with her now.

Woah there, Calm down. Being in a sorority is an experience that enriches a young woman's personality, not changes it. Forget what you've heard about the wild lifestyle, and trust your girlfriend.

sorority's are such BS! If she doesn't like partying and that kind of stuff, then she's going to hate being in a sorority. Why not just find some roomies in the area? That's what craigslist is for and you can usually find some really nice people to room with.

She is your girlfriend, not your wife. You have no say. You can express your concern and worries but ultimately it is HER decision to make, NOT yours.
