….𝐈 𝐖𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐮𝐲 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐄𝐥𝐬𝐞 𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐅𝐮𝐧…. 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐀𝐈𝐍: I remember one Friday night in San Francisco….I'd had a couple of drinks at home, alone,... and decided to go for a walk. I was dressed way too casually to go anywhere nice and honestly….I would NEVER go to a party by myself. So I just walked..... And I remember seeing them.... Young vibrant college kids lined up outside a dance club….all dressed to the nines….laughing, flirting, full of energy….ready to have the time of their lives. ....Fraternity guys rolling deep with their crew. Girls everywhere. Energy through the roof. And I wished I was one of them. But I wasn't. I was a lonely foreign student from Norway in a brand new country with almost no friends. No fraternity. No crew. No brotherhood. No one to call up and say "hey let's go out tonight." I didn't even have anyone to grab a meal with most days. ….𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐯𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐞𝐥𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐲….𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈'𝐦 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭…. Maybe you're in a fraternity right now and you're the social chair trying to figure out how to throw events that actually MEAN something. Or maybe you're NOT in a fraternity and you're watching those guys have all the fun while you're sitting in your dorm wondering how to break in. Or maybe you just don't FIT the fraternity mould but you KNOW you've got something in you that wants to bring people together. I get it. .....Because that was ME. The worst part? I wasn't used to "dating" the American way. Back in Norway we went out in GROUPS. You'd meet girls naturally through friends of friends. No pressure. No awkward one-on-one pickup lines. No swiping right and hoping for the best. Just good energy in a group setting and things would happen organically. But here in America? I didn't have the group. I didn't have the crew. I was watching other guys surrounded by girls having the time of their lives while I stood on the outside looking in. ….𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞'𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮…. You don't need a fraternity to have a brotherhood.
