JoJo wants to stay single for 2016

Written by . Published: February 26 2016

Pop star Jojo is determined to maintain her single status for much of 2016 after spending her youth jumping from one relationship to another.


The Leave (Get Out) singer admits she has always been a sucker for love, but she recently found herself without a man for the first time in years.


"I've been a serial monogamist," she confessed on late night show Kocktails with Khloe. "I've had, like, two-year relationships, one-and-a-half year relationships. I love love, I might be addicted to it!"


However, JoJo insists she is happy to live the single life for the rest of 2016, so she can focus on her own personal growth.


"I said, 'I wanna do this (stay single) for a year'," she continued. "I just turned 25, I just wanna do it. I have to learn about myself. I've learned a lot through compromising with a partner and things like that, but it's all about (me now)."


During the candid conversation with reality TV star-turned-talk show host Khloe Kardashian, JoJo also revealed she once tried having an open relationship, but it failed miserably.


"I was in an open relationship, and then we closed the relationship, but he didn't!" she laughed. "And then in this guilty moment, he came to me and was like, 'I've been dishonest with you, blah blah blah', and then I kind of faulted myself (because) they say the way you start a relationship (is how it goes on)."


The failed romance proved to be a learning curve for the former child star as JoJo realized, "I'm not cut out for this."


The singer wasn't the only one to open up about her dating disasters. Kim Kardashian's little sister also recently revealed her last relationship, with basketball star James Harden, fell apart after he cheated on her.


"He sought me out, he wanted to be committed... then wasn't committed," the 31-year-old explained during a recent taping of Kocktails with Khloe.
