The 20-year-old was reportedly dumped over the phone by Joe Jonas, and revealed that she now struggles to cope with the complexities of love.
The country singer told OK! 'Naturally, I want to write songs about love and relationships because I find it all very confusing. When I meet someone new I live somewhere between hope and fear.
'I hope that this time it could be different, and fear that it will turn out like it has before.'
She also revealed that her song writing is deeply influenced by her experiences in relationships, but that she is left feeling 'vulnerable' when the songs are released.
