Lil Nas X first revealed he was single in late September. At the time, he toldAndy Cohenhe was “seeing someone, [but] I kind of decided I don’t want to anymore,” before adding, “Maybe I’m floating around right now. I just want to work on music, and every now and then, you know, maybe I’ll kiss a guy every blue moon.”
“I’m at this point in my life where I finally realized that I don’t want to fall in love,” Lil Nas X told PEOPLE. “I’m so focused on my music career, and love takes a lot of time. It’s a lot of responsibility, and I don’t think I’m ready to have that extra responsibility on my shoulders right now. When it happens, it’s going to happen.”
