Well, I am an asshole, but sometimes a "fuck you" isn't deserved. Unfortunately some people aren't really capable of understanding this, but generally those aren't the kind of dipshits I'd like to associate with anyway.

You're normal man. I was nervous as hell the first part I went to where the women were out of my range.
One came home with me. She was completely sober and said it was cute that I was nervous. She was crazy in bed too.
Not that I condone cheating. I do not. Just telling my experience.
You will be fine MM ... I will be sending you good calm vibrations my brother!

So I just signed up to run door. Meaning I wont be drinking and il be outside letting people in and keeping everyone else out.
This might be a good thing. I get off of door around 11 o clock and by that time eveyone will be settled in and id feel perfectly comfortable socializing then. Even if I was sober. Its just the awkward first couple of hours that I really fear.

Ahh, dont dread it then just roll with it. Everytime you start thinking about bad outcomes turn your focus to the best that could happen. It really helps with the anxiety, also, pre-drinks. That'll calm you more then anything.

First of all fuck frats. But i've had problems with social anxiety but what helped me was finding a good group of friends that im really close with which took me a while though.

I joined a frat because im not a fan of dull moments. There is never a dull moment here, I dont even have to try... there's just always something social to do. Which I really appreciate. I also like the fact that we give back to the community. $1000 raised this week for our philanthropy.
Man just reading this thread and thinking good vibes makes me actually a bit excited for Saturday. Thats why this fear is weird for me. It only happens when I allow myself to let thoughts fester for too long.

I lived with a fraternity that sounds like it may have been pretty similar to yours. I would say maybe one or two of the members (it was also very small and I went Ohio State which is huge but doesn't have a big greek scene relative to the student body) seemed like they belonged in the stereotypical frat.
TGs were an absolute fucking blast. We did them with Ag frats, AEPhi (Jewish sorority), stereotypical fratboy type frats, stuck up snotty bitch sororities, the fat ugly girl sorority, whatever. Didn't matter who we got paired up with, everyone always had a good time. People are there to have fun. Part of the whole appeal of TGs is interacting with people who are different than you. Different fraternities and sororities have different vibes, and while you might not jive with the people that make up other greek houses on a regular basis you can still get together for a night and have a great fucking time.
I really wouldn't sweat it. Go out, have fun, get blitzed, dress up for whatever the theme is. And at the end of the day if it sucks you can always leave.

you don't seem particularly bright when you're a member of an "organization" that charges you for not attending some fake social event.

if you like your frat or being there.. dont opt out because of social anxiety. i did this last year. hid myself in my own hole and now im paying for it still a year later. DONT HIDE! its a blessing in disguise. i lost all my friends and everything. take it from the person that already tried this so called solution. i ruined my life..
or if you dont like the frats.. quit and find something better. not gonna lie, ive never been too a frat and i know i wouldnt want too because i can barely stand putting up with ppl at bars. gym, sports, anything besides shit that involves alcohol. alcohol is nothing but trouble in the term of "bars".
dont hide! dont do it..
get a job in retail. youll never even think twice of social anxiety ever again. im dead serious too. i got a retail job on purpose so i could get out of the hole im stuck in and it worked with social anxiety. i just havent got a clue as to where to look for some decent friends or a girlfriend.
dont hide..

Not sure you made the right choice with the door duty if you have issues with social anxiety . Most people that suffer from it try to avoid confrontation which could arise if some dickheads decide to crash your frat party . Not trying to make your situation worse just pointing it out .
Once your door duty is over just hang out with some of your frat's and have a good laugh at the ones who had to much to drink and think they can dance . Your making the right choice just by going , If I had to op out of all the things I would prefer to avoid I would not have a job .
