In my yesterday interview to Panagiotis Sakalakis and the fantastic Inkstory I wrote down an awesome quote that came to me at that moment:
I'm Tina and I'm fine. I answer you like celebrities in short (haha). Blogging came into my life 5 years ago when I was in a relationship - I kept it private on blogger - and when I broke up I published it and that's how I started. I always said that when a door closes, a vodka opens and you create great things. And so it happened, I blogged my pain.

The truth is that when you get divorced and you're young and you've been hurt a lot, the Vodka flows freely and you don't understand what's going on around you, no matter how crazy it may seem.
I've quit drinking for 5 years now, because drinking wasn't solving my problems, on the contrary, it was causing me more: I was dizzy, sleepy, and I wasn't enjoying going out.
I never liked drinking or smoking.
Many times I'm asked if I've been drunk and I always think of the drunkenness I had when I was 18:
At a party that an acquaintance of mine had invited me to, my ex was there too, I never imagined that I would make things right with him. He was one of those men you should keep in the category of not messing with. That night I got so drunk that I could talk to him more easily and I didn't do anything with him, because I knew that my acquaintance wanted him.

After that drunkenness, I became closer to my ex, so here's my first mistake: if you get drunk, you always meet the "unsuitable" ones.
And I continue with one more incident:
We had gone out for drinks, I felt something inside you know those butterflies and the tightness in your stomach that you think you're 13 years old, but I was holding on I shouldn't mess with him. He kind of provoked me and I drank the Sangria boom and down and then the bad thing happened, he kissed me and it felt strange, romantic I don't know how to define it even after all these years. When he was about to leave he kissed me between the cheek and the lips.
I feel very strange as I write these things, because I've never said these things, but I feel even stranger because I think about them as if they were happening now.

I know that my specific memories will bother many, but personally, that never bothered me.
I always said that when a door closes, a vodka opens and great people emerge.
Moral lesson: Don't drink, don't be blind, because you're messing with "unfit"
Exes and alcohol evaporate in record time
