“That’s why I haven’t been having sex or even really seeing anybody,” she admits, “Because I don’t want to wake up the next day feeling guilty. I mean I get horny, I’m human, I’m a woman, I want to have sex. But what am I going to do—just find the first random cute dude that I think is going to be a great ride for the night and then tomorrow I wake up feeling empty and hollow? He has a great story and I’m like … what am I doing? I can’t do it to myself. I cannot. It has a little bit to do with fame and a lot to do with the woman that I am. And that saves me.” So much for Drake and Travis Scott, because she says her last real relationship was Chris Brown.
But it sounds like Rihanna still does have some feelings for Chris and reminisces on their relationship: “A hundred percent. I was very protective of him. I felt that people didn’t understand him. Even after … But you know, you realize after a while that in that situation you’re the enemy. You want the best for them, but if you remind them of their failures, or if you remind them of bad moments in their life, or even if you say I’m willing to put up with something, they think less of you—because they know you don’t deserve what they’re going to give. And if you put up with it, maybe you are agreeing that you [deserve] this, and that’s when I finally had to say, ‘Uh-oh, I was stupid thinking I was built for this.’ Sometimes you just have to walk away.” Are they getting back together? Don’t count on it. “I don’t hate him. I will care about him until the day I die,” she added. “We’re not friends, but it’s not like we’re enemies. We don’t have much of a relationship now.”
