I'm seeking ideas/anecdotal experiences with ways other folks have dealt with this situation.
You handle it by ignoring it. Focus on what you can control. Gucci is right the friends aren't the problem so don't even bother with them. It's very feminine to get emotional about what other people say, it's very masculine to be about your business. Be a leader, be confident, be decisive and stay focused. This is attractive to women.
