After Keri had her hair clipped in August 1999, this affected the overall performance of "Felicity" (1998), where it affected fan consensus and the Nielsen ratings. A letter-writing campaign saved the show for another season, and the WB network came up with a resolution, where young stars will not alter their current hairstyles as a strategy to avoid a TV series airing on the WB network, to cause it to be cancelled, or for worse, having an actor/actress fired or subsequently terminated out of his/her contract.

People - not just in their teenage years - hold on to this fantasy of love when they're not ready to have a real relationship.

Yeah, I like being on my own. I do. I tend to be a loner, so I'm okay. I'm not okay when I have to be around everyone all the time.

Sometimes it's the smallest decisions that can change your life forever.
