Dialogue: Nada Mohsen
What is the “toxic” trait in your personality?
I don’t trust people, ever.
How long does it take you to trust someone?
It takes a lot of time. In the past, I used to trust people very easily, but as I gained experience, I rarely trusted people.
How long does it take you to get over someone in your life?
A very short time, maybe two days.

What is the emotional relationship that affected you the most in your life?
I like to hold on to the one I love and I cannot give up on him easily, because I care a lot, and there is no such person currently, meaning I am not in a romantic relationship.
What is the strangest reason you ended a romantic relationship?
It wasn’t strange, honestly, I was sick of it by then, and I think that’s normal.
How did you finish it?
When he didn’t answer my calls, I ended the relationship. It may have been a weak excuse to end the relationship, but I was completely fed up with him.
Did you miss an important appointment while you were asleep?
It actually happened.
Have you ever made up an excuse to hang up on someone?
No it didn’t happen.
Have you ever refused to take a photo shoot with a fan?
No it has never happened before.

It actually happened and it happened many times.
