Michael B. Jordan Admits He Gets “Lonely” But Isn’t Quite Ready To Date Again
In the latest episode of On Purpose with Jay Shetty, Michael B. Jordan made an appearance where he spoke on his current love life. The award-winning actor and director admitted that he gets “lonely” with his busy life, but also isn’t ready to revisit the dating pool just yet.
“There’s a loneliness that I have,” he started. “The responsibility that you have is isolating and the weight is isolating. The worst part of that is the feeling like nobody really understands. Sometimes falling into the spaces of being alone, feeling alone.”
MBJ then shared that he often contemplates between, “wanting partnership” and “not knowing what’s the best partner for me.” He also mentioned that for his ideal relationship, “It’s not just ‘I love you, you love me,’” but it “should be enough” to just love your significant other — although he admits it’s “not quite that simple.”
With his very complex schedule, Jordan said that he desires someone that will “understand all of me and all that comes with me as well.” During his past relationships, he mentioned that he’s had to consider, “that balance between wanting to be available and there for that person while I’m juggling everything else.”
However, the Creed star does “want a family eventually.”
“I’m not looking but it would take a very special person to understand and grow with me,” he said.
Jordan last publicly dated Lori Harvey in 2021, before calling it quits a year later. For the first time, social media witnessed MBJ’s romantic side as the two shared “baecation” photos, date nights, quality time spent together, and more.
Since his split from the 27-year-old, the Black Panther star has remained rather quiet on the dating tip, although some have tried to link him to models, singers, and more.
However, the eligible bachelor has stated in the past that his next relationship “is gonna happen when it’s supposed to happen.”
