I don't write for any mag, I just have experience in dealing with this kind of thing. I personally have gone through it, I've had friends go through it and I've just seen that getting all sad and depressed over it doesn't accomplish a damn thing, it closes you off to new people, it makes you not fun to be around, and it creates a very bad vibe around you....believe it or not (I know Andre will be on board for this ) people are either givers of energy or takers of energy, people either make you happy when you're around them or make you feel like you've been drained of all happy feelings...and you have to notice what you're putting out there......chicks don't dig "Donny Downer", the dude that's all sullen and sad, unless they are those goth/emo girls and they are usually closet lesbians or just are psychologically and emotionally at a point where you don't want to mess with them.
