More about Lena’s interview
Lena went on to explain:
“I’d just had a hysterectomy, I’d broken up with my boyfriend, I was in the process of breaking up with my business partner — I had no business buying a pair of shoes, [let alone] getting engaged. Then I just went, ‘You know what? I’ve been dating since I was 15 years old. I’m allowed to take a break.'”
But now, Lena is single for the past 14 months. But she considers this the best time of her life which has helped her gain clarity in her life.
She continued:
“I realized that until I was in a dynamic with someone who made me feel super-safe, I didn’t want to do it. People right now will go, ‘Oh my god, you haven’t had sex in over a year,’ and I’m like, ‘No, actually it’s been the most healing thing.'”
Lena Dunham’s sobriety
The actress credits her newly changed mindset to her sobriety. Talking about it, she expressed:
“Sobriety for me means so much more than just not doing drugs.”
“It also means that I abstain from negative relationships. It means I’ve taken a hiatus from dating, which has been amazing for me,”
She is positive about her love life. She wants to have kids in the future with her partner. Speaking about her romantic future, Lena said:
“Here’s the thing: if I meet someone who I think would be great to raise children with, that’s wonderful, but I’ve compromised on too many things in my life. I’m not going to compromise on that.”
Jack has moved on and is now dating model Carlotta Kohl.
