Maybe the world simply just couldn't get over the Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez tandem. Following their on-and-off-relationship, the former lovebirds are again hitting the headlines.
The two have been too outspoken recently about what's really up between them, with Bieber even admitting that Gomez is someone he loves "dearly".
"I'm never going to stop loving her," he said. "I'm never going to stop checking in on her. I don't think if you end a relationship, you should end that, unless it was super toxic and you guys were hurting each other physically or mentally. We always respected each other and we still respect each other."
While it's completely obvious that Bieber and Selena are definitely not getting back together anytime soon, especially now that they are also both focused on their respective careers, it seems like the 21-year old Canadian superstar is not hiding from his true feelings in the aftermath of their separation.
"It was really tough," Bieber said of the split during his one-on-one interview with Billy Bush on Tuesday, November 3. "I don't know if I'm still over it yet. I think that I'm definitely in another place, and I think we've definitely went our separate ways."
Despite the seemingly quite messed up story that these ex-lovers have, Bieber sounded like he's still into his former lady, adding "I love her and I want her to be awesome, but there are things that remind me of her."
When being asked if Selena was one of his inspiration while recording his tracks coming from his impending album "Purpose", the singer was quick to reply saying "A lot of it dude, a lot of it. Probably, like three."
Reports say that the "What Do You Mean?" hit-maker, who has just debuted his latest track "I'll Show You", admitted that maybe he and Selena had crossed their paths too early in life.
"Yeah, I wrote a song that didn't make the album. It was called "If I Would Have Met You in 5 Years"." Bieber explained. "How true is that? How many people go through life and end up meeting someone and it feels so right, but it's just the wrong time. So many people can relate to that."
Justin Bieber is getting ready for the upcoming release of his latest material "Purpose", which is set to due on November 13, Friday.
