Yeah, the figure skating community can be pretty toxic at times. This is the main reason I decided to take a break from posting. Although this place is pretty tame and mostly polite, especially the fan appreciation threads.It’s funny to you, but on one well-known resource they made a real tragedy out of this and shed a whole lake of crocodile tears. I'm pleasantly surprised that there was nothing like this here.
I also saw that some people made a big deal of Alina's statement that when she began skating as a little kid she did not immediately like it. As if now Alina does not look happy pretty much every time she skates in galas or trains on ice. The bottom line is Alina seems to be radiant in her every public appearance, has lots of projects going on and she is still growing professionally. Oh, and she is still charming as ever and wears her heart on her sleeve. As Tarasova once said, "Alina does not know how to lie".
