Fans love Charlie Puth for his relatable lyrics about romance in the modern age — but having spent much of his career as an eligible bachelor, the singer-songwriter's own track record actually includes few public incidents. One of his first speculated romance's included Selena Gomez, his duet partner on 2016's "We Don't Talk Anymore." Puth later revealed to Billboard (via ET Canada) that their relationship was "very short-lived, very small, but very impactful," adding, "And it really messed me up ... It wasn't like I was the only person on her mind." Adding insult to injury, a source later claimed to People that the two "never dated." Hm ... who do you believe?
In addition to awkwardly attempting to use his flirting tactics on Access Hollywood hosts Natalie Morales and Kit Hoover in 2016, Puth was "captured by paparazzi with the Hollywood wild-child Bella Thorne on a Miami beach, then, after she posted a picture with her ex, melted down on Twitter just a few days later," The New York Times reported. When reflecting on these rumored flings and flirtations, Puth confessed, "It was more about the idea of me than actually wanting to be with me and I got that confused with actual love and romanticism."
Puth elaborated that he still feels underdeveloped in the romance department, telling Vulture, "I've never felt so enamored with somebody that I can't bring myself to move on. And I'm not proud of that. I want to have heartbreak, as masochistic as that is."
