Katy Perry appears on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar for their October issue and opened up about her past relationships again. She’s been married to Russell Brand and has most recently dated John Mayer.
Perry revealed when she started to realize her relationships just weren’t working out she decided to go to therapy and learned a lot about self-love.
“What I've learned is that if you don't have the foundation of self-love first, you really have nowhere to pull love from to give it away,” she explained.
She continued to tell the magazine, “I had to learn about taking care of myself before I could take care of others. I want to mommy everyone. I want to take care of them. I want to save them, and I forget myself in the meantime. I learned that through therapy."
Perry went on to say that she’s found in past relationships that her significant other has been “intimidated” by her success, adding she wants a partner who “could be inspiring with me.”
People reports Perry, 29, filed for divorce from Brand in 2012 after a brief marriage and she split from Mayer in February after breaking up and getting back together a few times throughout the time they were together.
