It's no shock that part of being in a sorority is becoming a Big. Most people know that there is a week dedicated to Littles, but most people often assume that Big's just buy their littles a ton of presents and that you spend a lot of money and then you take a lot of photos. The thing that most people don't understand is the fact that becoming a Big is so much more than that, so I'm going to tell you exactly that.
Becoming a Big means taking responsibility for your Little's actions in the sorority. As a Big, I am there to make sure my little succeeds in school, in the sorority, and in life. I am there as her cheerleader, and nothing is better than seeing your Little succeed in something.
Becoming a Big means being your Little's best friend. I will always be there for every incident that my Little ever goes through. I will be the most fun lunch date, and have the best shoulder to cry on. My Little will never feel alone because as her Big, I will always be her best friend.
Becoming a Big means being honest. Sometimes, the hard part of being a Big is telling your Little stuff she may not want to hear, but stuff she needs to hear. As a Big, I want only the absolute best for my little, therefore I will always be honest with her.
Becoming a Big means being protective. I hope no one ever breaks my Littles heart or is mean to her. No Big ever wants that to happen, and I can tell you that I will be so protective over my Little and her feelings. Why? because I'm her Big and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Becoming a Big means spoiling your little. I would be lying if I said spoiling your Little wasn't fun. Seeing how excited Littles get when they receive gifts is one of the most exciting parts of becoming a Big. I now get to spoil my Little forever.
Becoming a Big is so much more than spending money and giving them gifts. Becoming a Big is something I am so incredibly excited for, and as we enter our Big/Little week at my University, I couldn't be more ecstatic for the week to draw to an end and finally be an official Big.
