“Super stoked that I’ve got some bumps on me, some scars, some bruises,” she said. “I actually love that. And I don’t mean that in a morbid way. It was great to experience really beautiful things, and then, you have, have the growing pains, in every possible manner, in every relationship.”
“The Heart Wants What It Wants” singer also gets candid about her tumultuous relationship (and breakup) with Justin Bieber.
;I was 18 years old, and it was my first love. It almost felt like all we had was each other, like the world was against us, in a way," she explained. "It was really weird but it was incredible."
"I would never take it back in a million years," she continued. "You live and you learn, you know?"
"It was just easier to say, Hey, do you mind running to the grocery store and picking some stuff up, I don’t want to get photographed. My friends will come over and I’ll have movie nights and then I’ll have not left the house, just because that was in the back of my mind. As much as I don’t like to wake up and think about that it’s there, it’s naturally just there. My response was to stay in, which sucked. That’s what I was trying to fix this past year, I’m finally getting a little bit more comfortable. It’s a process.”
