From Our Readers: I Wasn't Enough For You
Have you ever felt broken beyond repair? Broken beyond any help by any means, too broken to even write another word of poetry. I've told myself to numb the pain of heartbreak, to disregard such emotion from my system. But once again, I have failed myself. It is no surprise to me to be rejected; I should have gotten used to it by now. But every break-up still stings as if it were the first one to ruin your life.

#MusicMonday: 3 Love Songs You Should Listen To Today
A ton of things happened over the weekend in the music world. If you weren't able to catch up with all of the songs you need to listen to ASAP, we've rounded up the three things you need to hear today to start off this rainy week.
1 Gwen Stefani's "Used To Love You"
In August, fans of music couple Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale were shocked to hear that the two were going their separate ways after 13 years of marriage and three handsome boys. During her performance for MasterCard's Priceless Surprise series in NYC recently, the singer debuted her new single "Used To Love You." Although she hasn't officially said what or who the song's about and the release date for the single, too, it's safe to say that it could be about her relationship with Gavin. Just listen to her lines and you'll know. (via Nylon.com)
...5 Makeup Mistakes Girls with Glasses Should Avoid
Knowing the right makeup looks is extra challenging when you sport glasses on a daily basis. And since we know just how difficult it can be to navigate your daily beauty looks when sporting specs, we're here to help you with a list of makeup mistakes you should avoid so that you can always look your best! Scroll down to learn the best makeup tips and tricks, through the looks to avoid for when you sport your cute pair of glasses!
1 Dark shadows.
This will only make your eyes look darker underneath your glasses. Make sure to use a lighter, highlighter shade on your lids and apply medium brown shadow on your crease.
7 Ways You're Making Your Acne Worse
1 You don't put on sunscreen.
Exposing acne-prone skin to the sun will inflame it and make the situation worse. Plus, it can trigger pigmentation, creating dark scars after the zit has healed. Put on a layer of oil-free face sunscreen to keep your face from turning into a big tomato.
2 Your hair products are too heavy.
Some hair products that are great for reviving fried tresses may be too greasy for your skin. So if you see pimples popping on your hairline, wash your face after using shampoo and conditioner, and cleanse your hands from any hair product before doing your makeup.
3 You apply treatment only on present pimples.
Spot medication is, indeed, made for slaying zits, but applying treatment on the T-zone (or the area where you're zit prone) will help prevent future red spots from forming.
From Our Readers: To the Boy Who Is So Close But Still Far Beyond My Reach
One day, in class, our professor made us draw on a piece of paper someone we knew and write down their age. I immediately thought of you, so I started working and carefully wrote the number 17. After everyone was finished, she explained that the person we chose is someone we truly admired and looked up to. That someday, we aspire to be just like that person and will become that once we reach the age we wrote down.
...These #NiceBroSquad Boys Are the New Guys You'll Be Crushing On
We heard your loud cheers when these Candy Cuties and Nice Bro Squad members Patrik Franksson, Gil Cuerva, and Mikko Marcelo came out and walked on the Candy Fair 2015 stage last month. We know you love them as much as we do. So when we got the chance to shoot them for Candy's December 2015-January 2016 issue, we knew we had to talk to them and ask them to let us in on their amazing brotherhood. Now we're even more in love with them. These guys are #SquadGoals!
...From Our Readers: From The One Who Stayed
In every failed relationship, there are the Ones Who Got Away and The Ones Who Stayed. Unfortunately for me, I was the latter in ours.
They say The One Who Got Away bears more of the pain than The One Who Stayed. But in our case, it seems like I carried all of it. I remember our movies dates: The day, the time, the place and even the movie we watched. I remember the simple dinner and lunch dates: What we ate and where we've eaten. I even kept the receipts; they are still inside the box I have been dying to burn but can't. Because burning that means burning what we had, forgetting the marks we've left in each others' lives, and moving on. Yes, I am still refusing to let go of you, of us, and all that we had.
