Going to a fraternity party or event, you will encounter many types of guys, from the raging douchebag to the nice and cute new pledge.
Here are the six types you will meet.
1. President. The ultimate fraternity man; the epitome of a college bro and so frat. This man will, most likely, be an upper classman, meaning he will know how to sweep you off of your feet and straight into his bed after years of practice. He's charming, has all of the hook-ups to the good alcohol and can impress you with his authority over the pledges. Sure, he's cute, funny and nice, but be careful. He's just going through his cycle of the new crop of freshman pledges in his favorite sororities. This description is not limited to the president (and not all presidents are like this). He may just like to pretend he is president to score girls.
2. Alcoholic. This is the guy everyone likes to party with. He is the face of the college (like Jim Belushi’s character in Animal House) and your parents' worst nightmare. You will probably find him under the influence 95 percent of the time you see him, including classes and on-campus events. He's over-the-top, collects the money for all the good quality alcohol and throws the best parties. This man is usually pretty friendly, but he can be an asshole when he mixes multiple types of alcohol.
3. “Careful” Man. This man initially joined his fraternity for the post-college alumni connections and the community service, but has since developed into a careful drinker. He will occasionally get wasted, but is usually the guy to call when something goes wrong. He is always there when you're in trouble or need a little help carrying your friend home. He is also one of the best ones to take to your formal since he’s always helping others and is awesome to have around in your life. The “Careful” man will probably end up being very successful, whether it's in his fraternity or after graduation. Definitely pursue him if you have the chance – he probably has a long line of girls waiting to steal him.
4. Stoner. Every fraternity has a guy or two who loves to dance with Mary Jane. They're usually pretty chill and come off very quiet. At parties, you can usually find them toking up out of some crazy, huge, standing glass pipe. Stoner fraternity guys don't like to drink much, but when they mix both, everyone around them is sure to have a great time. What they do to earn enough money for the ganja is most of the time a mystery.
5. Meat Head. This guy just loves his football and gym time. He's very dedicated to his sports teams, and watches his games religiously. He is also very headstrong about his opinions regarding those teams, so stay away from the topic of sports if your teams are rivals. The third most important thing in his life, after sports and his fraternity, are his muscles. He visits the gym every day, has a strict routine and never misses leg day. His body is phenomenal and so is his charm. However, at the end of the day, he will most likely choose sports and the gym before you.
6. Pledge. This boy just accepted his bid and is more than thrilled to be a part of Greek life. Everything is so new to him, but after his first time throwing up, he will soon realize that he has a lot to learn about college. He is also very excited to be surrounded by so many hot college girls, so he will gladly fetch you and your hot friends drinks at his fraternity's parties, escort you home and take you to your formal. It's probably his first sorority event, so he will be over the moon to take you.
Not all fraternities have these types of guys, but if they do, you're
in for the best and most interesting ride of your life. Eventually, you will learn to deal with the jerks and embrace the
sweethearts but, for now, know who you’re dealing with. Enjoy the
new people and have fun!
