Speaking to the podcast's host, Steven Bartlett, he continued, "I'm just not very good at them so I just need to work on myself before I put myself on to somebody else ... I feel like that's where I got to in my last relationship. I just wasn't giving a very good version of me anymore, that I didn't appreciate and I didn't like being." Per The Independent, the singer added, "I already feel good. It has already got me more concentrated and I hope she's happy."
