And he says: 'Love, if I'm with you, it's because I want to be with you.' We're not tied to each other. I give him what he needs, and he gives me what I need. We complete each other and are happy ," he said.

She also compared Gracyanne 's stance to an earlier phase of her life: "I've been in that place when I ended a relationship. My ex started dating a girl. I'm a mother, and I had to have contact with him, and he was in another relationship. When we like someone, it's bad, even if it ended for bad reasons. It's bad to let go. Sometimes we don't even like the person anymore, but we're still attached ," she believes.
