I felt I didn&#8217;t get a respectful closure, and I had accepted that, but I know I needed some way to just say a few things that I wish I had said. It&#8217;s not a hateful song; it&#8217;s a song that is saying\u2014I had something beautiful and I would never deny that it wasn&#8217;t that. It was very difficult and I&#8217;m happy it&#8217;s over,&#8221; she shared. &#8220;And I felt like this was a great way to just say, you know, it&#8217;s done, and I understand that, and I respect that, and now here I am stepping into a whole other chapter.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When NPR asked to clarify if the song was about saying goodbye to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/justin_bieber\">Justin Bieber<\/a><\/strong>, Selena responded by saying, &#8220;You had to get the name in, I get it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"57.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"5\">\n<p>During the interview, Selena admits she does feel like she &#8220;was a victim to certain abuse.&#8221; And when asked if it was emotional abuse, the singer agreed.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"photo-txt-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"38\">\n<div class=\"column post-content__image--left post-content__image\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"32\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image--full\" src=\"https:\/\/akns-images.eonline.com\/eol_images\/Entire_Site\/2017410\/rs_634x1024-170510154128-634.Justin-Bieber-Selena-Gomez-2012_Billboard-Awards.ms.051017.jpg?fit=inside|900:auto&amp;output-quality=90\" title=\"Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Billboard Awards\" alt=\"Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez, Billboard Awards\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"image__credits\">Kevin Mazur\/WireImage.com <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-photo-text\" readability=\"14\">\n<p>&#8220;Yes, and I think that it&#8217;s something that \u2014 I had to find a way to understand it as an adult.
