Back in the day, rumors were swirling about a possible relationship between Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper.

That has all been debunked and she’s been dating a man named Michael Polansky for the last four years.

Gaga clearly knows a thing or two about relationships, dating, and love! Here are some gems of wisdom you can learn from the “Just Dance“ singer.

First, don’t feel pressured to have sex before you’re ready for it.

According to Elite Daily, Gaga said, “It’s OK not to have sex. It’s OK to get to know people. It’s OK to be whomever it is that you want to be. You don’t have to have sex to feel good about yourself, and if you’re not ready, don’t do it. It’s cooler to be strong and independent.”

It’s your body, so it’s your choice to move forward or to walk away.

Second, remember that love can be incredibly heavy.

According to GoodReads, Gaga once said, “Love is like a brick. You can build a house, or you can sink a dead body.”

In other words, it’s crucial to treat love accordingly. If you let it get too heavy in a negative way, it could sink you. If you allow it to become heavy in a positive way, it can become something beautiful.

Third, healing from broken trust can be extremely difficult.

Gaga was also quoted saying, “Trust is like a mirror, you can fix it if it’s broken, but you can still see the crack in that mother f-er’s reflection.”

Once someone breaks your trust, they need to put in the necessary work to resolve the situation. And there’s a chance they may never be able to regain your trust to the degree where it once was!

Fourth, you do not have to prioritize relationships over your individual success.

According to Vogue France, Gaga said, “Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you’re wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn’t love you anymore.”

Although her words are a bit harsh, the sentiment is real. Finding a beautiful romantic love is a great thing, but it doesn’t have to come at the expense of your individual success.

Fifth and finally, love yourself exactly as you are because self-love is a must.

In Gaga’s song “Born This Way,” she sings, “I’m beautiful in my way cause God makes no mistakes. I’m on the right track, baby, I was born this way. Don’t hide yourself in regret, just love yourself and you’re set.”

These heartwarming lyrics serve as a reminder that loving yourself exactly as you are is beyond important.

When you truly love yourself, it becomes easier to find yourself in healthy, romantic relationships as well.
