Craft Room

hi:) I think unfortunately tumblr was down or experiencing problems which was why part of the message disappeared! (Yes I googled this!). I don’t think spontaneous plans would be too creepy as long as it doesn’t happen every day of the week. Maybe it is somehow possible that there is a really big misunderstanding and you both think the other doesn’t like each other! I can, however, completely relate to how you feel right And I know it really sucks.

I would just like to let the nice girl who is being ignored by her Big that she's not alone. It happens a lot more than people think. After my Big got back from her study abroad semester and got a new Little, I felt really left out and alone too. Not only by my Big, but by my new sibling too. Luckily I have an amazing Uncle (co-ed group) who adopted me. Now I hang out with my sisters/cousins ALL the time and it seriously rocks. I promise it will get better :)

I don't know how to confront her without really hurting her feelings or destroying our relationship. I know not every b/l pair gets the best friend relationship but I truly believe ours has even the slightest chance if she'd text me back or try to hang out once in awhile. I just don't know what to do! Someone please, help!

Hi! I think your very first message somehow didn’t send but from what I gather your little wont respond to messages or hang out and has “joined” another family line? I really hope you can work this out too. I don’t know if you have tried this, but try finding out when she has a lunch break or break between classes and just run into her on campus and make “spontaneous” plans then and there… And hopefully she will realize how much she has been missing out on. At events do what you can to sit with her and whoever else she is sitting with to spend more time together too.

These are some non-confrontational ways one of my chapter sisters actually has been using for a similar little problem (except we don’t have the whole adoption term on my campus) .. If you need to be a little more obvious, try sending her obvious “haven’t seen my little in ages miss you are you free tomorrow” via twitter, or on her fb wall so then she might feel more obliged to reply than a more private text message she might accidentally overlook!

I hope this helps in some way, or someone may reply with better advice!

Hi! I wrote you in January about my big rarely acknowledging me... Just checking in to let you know that things are worse. At the end of January, I texted her and asked her if she wanted to go to dinner, my treat. She said she was too busy but would let me know when she was free... never texted me back. I saw that you told another girl to make her big a craft--I did that too, with a brief thank you and nothing else. Now she got another little. I decided that I'm going to get adopted.

Hi! I am so sorry to hear this - I can hardly believe it! However, if you are going to do SO much to try to build a friendship and she seemingly could care less, I can understand why you would want to bring your efforts elsewhere. She doesn’t seem like the type of person to deserve your friendship anyways if she is like that! At least you know you tried. I hope you don’t feel defeated, because it really was nothing you could control. I really commend you on your efforts though and any sister would be lucky to have you as a little. Keep in touch I’m always here to talk :)

Family Line Shirts

I am looking for suggestions of cute slogans to put on the back of family line shirts. We have already done the “keep calm and text my big” “little gets what little wants” but I want to have something new to bring to the chapter.

MY RESPONSE: Hi! The only other one that I have seen that I can think of is “like big” and “like little” … I really like matching family line letters because it looks so neat and pretty in family photos, especially when the fabric pattern is really unique.. You don’t need to worry tooo much if you don’t have something to go on the back you could even put a family name if you have one :) If anyone has any other suggestions let us know!!
