From outside of greek life or outside of college it may seem that all fraternities are the same, but this is simply incorrect. If you are a frequent attendee of frat events you know this to be true. These are the various relationships you might have with frats on campus.
1. The Best Friend
You walk into this frat and it’s hugs all around. Your best friend's frat is the one that gets you rides for you and all your friends, and hands you alcohol as soon as you walk in the door. This is the frat that you stay at until 2am or stay over and they drive you home in the morning.
2. The Bro
You are essentially a brother of this fraternity. You never have to be put on the list because they all know your name. You can be seen high fiving these guys and shotgunning beer with them (you’re probably even featured in their rush video). They also allow you to take the aux and you always join in the mosh pit when their song comes on.
3. The Turnt Cousin
This sounds weird, but these guys are always down to party, and they have good ones too. They always have alcohol so you are all over a night at this frat. They’re like a cousin to you; you aren’t hella close, but you wouldn’t even entertain the idea of a hook-up. This frat is perfect for a girls night when you and your squad wanna spend some quality time getting drunk together.
4. The Hook-Up
Most people think this is every frat, but no. As explained already, every frat does not have hook-up material boys. This one on the other hand is full of eligible cuties who are fun to hook-up with once and call it a night. You go to this frat when Brad told you he doesn’t want to be serious and ugh now you just need someone to tell you you’re pretty.
5. The BAE
BAE= Before Anyone Else; used casually when referring to someone who you might have slight romantic interest in. This frat has all the cuties of the hook-up frat but actually worth talking to. They are nice, actually want to know your name, and you usually exchange numbers. This is especially awesome because you can go to this fraternity anytime and “bae” will always be there so you aren’t the one single friend.
6. The Hubby
As suggested by the term “hubby” this frat has straight husband material. They are nice, cute, and all have really good GPA’s. Similar to the BAE fraternity you exchanged numbers with one guy at some point but this guy asked you to meet for coffee. Then coffee turned into dinner and dinner turned into dating and then he lavaliered you. Okay maybe not, but still these are the sweethearts who are worth significant time.
7. The Creep
Unfortunately they do exist. Sometimes it can just be a bad egg, but usually you can give a frat a second chance to either confirm or deny their creepiness. This is the frat you went to because someone told you that they are really fun and cool but then some kid stares at you all night. Some kid probably touched your butt “by accident”, another is just standing in the corner by himself, and another keeps trying to clear a table to play flipcup (do less please). Absolutely no chance of staying past 11:30 at this place
