As Demi Lovato<\/a><\/strong> realized, “If they’re an ex, it’s for a reason.”<\/p>\n

The famous songstress and former Disney star, the now-27-year-old star has grown up in the spotlight. As a result, her romances have also unfolded in the glare of that bright light, but Lovato is putting an end to that. As she explained on Jameela Jamil<\/strong>‘s podcast, I Weigh<\/em>, Lovato has learned to set boundaries about what she shared with the media and with people that no longer belong in her life. <\/p>\n

“My steepest learning curve over the course of my career was, well, I think that learning to set boundaries with other people is ok\u2014that was something that I have just learned over the past year and a half,” she explained. “I had to learn that by not setting boundaries, it put me in the position that I was in…talking about every detail of every part of my life, whether it be a relationship or whether it be my recovery, you know…nothing was sacred to me anymore.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

As a result of spending time out of the public eye following her overdose<\/a>, “I’ve been able to do so much healing. I’ve done more healing on myself in the past year and a half than I have the past that entire six years that I went around the world preaching about recovery.”<\/p>\n

“I’m able to heal because I’m not talking about those things with the media,” she continued. “I’m not telling people details that they can tear me down with later.”  <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

She’s also been able to move on from people who shouldn’t be in her life anymore,<\/p>\n

“I kind of used to have this mentality that if I had a negative experience with someone, I always needed to mend it or I always needed to make things right and, the fact of the matter is, I’m not really friends with any of my exes today because I had to realize that that wasn’t healthy either,” she told Jamil. <\/p>\n

“Trying to maintain close friendships with some of my exes, it just isn’t realistic\u2014there’s actually a reason why people don’t do that,” Lovato continued, noting she tried to stay friends with exes because “I was afraid of fully letting go of people.”<\/p>\n

“Now that I’ve been able to fully let go of people, you know, that is another thing that I had to learn when it comes to cutting toxic people out of your life\u2014if they’re an ex, it’s for a reason,” she pointed out. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In the May issue of Harper’s Bazaar<\/em>, Lovato confirmed she is no longer in touch<\/a> with her past famous love, Wilimer Valderrama<\/strong>, who is now engaged to<\/a> Amanda Pacheco<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“I’m really happy for him and I wish him nothing but the best, but we’re not in each other’s lives, haven’t spoken in a long time,” she said. “But I think I needed that because I needed to learn to be okay on my own. When you get into a relationship with somebody at that young of an age and then you spend six years with somebody, you don’t really get to learn about yourself.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
