00:17 love.

00:21 At the time of the interview, Sel noted she was single and shared what she was looking

00:25 for in a partner, telling the mag, "Honestly, I have to start being attracted to the right

00:30 kind of people, because it's a bit of both.

00:33 It's very hard to find someone who can listen to you and care about you, but I know when

00:37 it happens it will be great, and you will want it to be healthy."

00:40 "I only know how to be myself, and when I combat it with all of who I am, it always

00:46 trumps everything."

00:48 The writer adds, "Selena's looking for a very special connection with someone that allows

00:52 for self-respect and holds space for the feelings of others."

00:56 "I just want to be happy with who I am so that whenever that person comes into my life,

01:01 I can just have them add on to me instead of being this insecure, you know, person that

01:09 I normally used to be."

01:38 good time to share how happy she is with her fans."

01:42 "I'm very honest, though, in general."

01:44 Our source adds, "Benny's a great communicator, honest and open with Selena, and listens to

01:50 her.

01:51 He's respectful, isn't a player, and not in it for the attention or fame.

02:27 Our source says, "It's taken a lot for Selena to let someone in, but Benny's proven himself.

02:33 She feels like she can give him a part of her heart that she hasn't been able to, or

02:37 willing to, offer in a relationship in a very long time."

02:40 "I'm at that age where I feel like that's what matters, is making sure I'm healthy and

02:45 people are happy that I love."
