Selena Gomez reveals how she feels about her romance with boyfriend Benny Blanco. In an interview with Zane Lowe, the “Love On” singer says she feels the “safest” with Blanco.

“Without getting into too much detail, I think it's just really important to meet someone that respects you,” the singer explained. “And I think it's really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in. But I'd have to say overall it's the safest that I feel and it's been really lovely and I've only grown through it, so it's awesome.”

Feeling safe in certain rooms especially in a work environment is not the easiest for Gomez. However she is able to take it in strides and has found a balance on what she feels comfortable with.

“But I find that when I work with new people, it's actually really fun to connect on what they're walking through in life,” she said.

“And it's like, oh, working with some great songwriters who know friends of friends and things like that. But I think it's also important that I stay with my core group because they're the people that can crack the code with me the best. They're the ones that can really help me explain what I want to say.”
