In an interview with Complex, Biebs opened up about his heartbreak after splitting up with the songstress in October last year.

"Don't fall in love," the 21-year-old star joked. "No, I'm just kidding. I learned a lot. I moved in with my girlfriend [Selena] when I was 18. Started my own life with her."

"It was a marriage kind of thing. Living with a girl, it was just too much at that age. But we were so in love. Nothing else mattered. We were all about each other."

However, the What Do You Mean singer says he wishes he'd done things differently in their relationship.

"When it's like that and you get your value from that, people will always disappoint you," he continued. "Your girl or your dude, they're always going to disappoint you. Your full identity can't be in that person. My identity was in her. Her identity was in me. When stuff would happen, I would lose my freaking mind, and she would lose her mind, and we would fight so hard because we were so invested in each other."

But despite things not working out, Justin says he learnt so much from their time together.

"Love is a choice," he added. "Love is not a feeling. People have made it seem in movies that it's this fairy tale. That's not what love is. You're not gonna want to love your girl sometimes but you're gonna choose to love her.

"That's something in life that I had to figure out. I can't lean on people. I got to lean on God. I gotta trust in him through all my situations. Then, hopefully, my other relationships will flourish around me."
