Demi Lovato Says I Have No Plans To Date Niall Horan

Demi Lovato has slowly begun to talk about her much talked about friendship with Niall Horan from One Direction. She dished that she is still single, but she considers him a close friend who is very supportive of her and her recovery. She hinted that she has never really been single and testing the single waters out, so she can learn to love herself. She seemed wise in her knowledge and knows that she needs to put herself first, which is setting another great example on how teens and women should be. Here is her full statement when she dished to MuchMusic about their friendship and being single.

We’ve actually become really close friends and you know I’m really thankful I have someone who supports me in all aspects. You know, if I need somebody to talk to he’s there for me…No, we’re not dating. I’m single. It wouldn’t be fair to anybody if I was dating them because I wouldn’t be able to give them my attention. And I’ve never really stayed single for longer than a couple of months. So, I’m experimenting with this and I’m really trying to get to know myself and do what’s best for me as a person and as a woman.

It sounds like Demi Lovato has a good head on her shoulders. I hope that she can learn to like herself and know that she does not need anyone else to make her special. It is something that everybody should learn and if Niall Horan can support her on that journey, then great! However, I do think we all know that they are attracted to each other and I am not sure just how long they can stay as just friends. It seems like that could be a pretty big struggle for them at this rate and once they do meet, it will be that much more tough.

How do you feel about Demi’s comments? Should she stay single or should she try her hand at dating Niall?I think that if Niall cares at all, he will wait by her side until she is ready. If he doesn’t, then we all know that they were never meant to be. I do think her staying single is a good call for now. It will allow her to find herself and to focus on what she loves, which is key I think for her to stay single at this point.

   She should avoid him… I heard he was an alcoholic and only liked skinny girls… Seriously though, he can’t be famous for too much longer with their ONE SONG… so he’ll probably try to cling to her just to stay relevant.. that’s just my 2cents…

     Oh my gosh…He’s not an alcholic and he likes ‘normal’ girls. And the band he is part of has a CD and 4 singles, and they have already had their U.S. tour. And have already planned their second, so he’s not holding on to her. She seems to be holding on to him. And that’s just my two cents…

       Lol, she’s clearly holding on to him by NOT dating him…. That’s a load of bull***. If she wanted to gain attention because of him she would have dated him. He’s the one who mentions her name in every interview when he’s asked about his crush, while she makes a point to tell every interviewer that they’re just friends. Your comment about her holding on to him is completely irrelevant (unlike Demi who’s been famous WAY longer than Niall has even been known. Since you wanna throw accomplishments out there; she’s starred in 3 TV shows [where she had the lead role in one] and also a couple guest star roles on other shows PLUS she’s a new judge on the XFactor, she’s had major roles in 3 movies, has 3 successful albums with plenty of successful singles and is currently on a tour which is going very well without Niall). Demi is clearly fine on her own. And notice how I never said anything about Niall that I couldn’t back up? Just an idea here, but maybe both of them are successful on their own. Give them both a little more credit here.

     Yeah, I’m with KT. He’s IRISH. They drink. It’s in their blood. It’s part of their culture.
     I don’t think either of them are ‘hanging on’ to each other, I just think they’re friends…and Demi’s found more support. There’s no issue with that.

     well, it’s NOT their one song. they have a album. my cousin, lilly, she has their album and told me all about them she said they just recently finished their tour and they are planning to make a new album and a new tour..and he IS Irish so he drinks.most Irish drink. but it’s not like he did anything bad. he is only human. he can date her, besides, if she did date him it would be because she actually knows him and spent time with him, so if any fans say hate on using him for fame and money..thats dumb cause she is already famous and has money. their friends. it’s their choice if they want to date or not.

       It’s Kinda Easy To See, There Are Friends, And Both Of Them Are Amazingly Talented And Sucsseful Enough Said. So Cut With The Bull, And Be Proud That Niall Is Nice And Caring And Be Happy That Demi Is Happy,And That She’s Trying New Things

   I think that Demi should most definitely stay single. I am experiencing the same problems as she is; with trying to love myself before I love anyone else. Staying single, for me, has been lonely at times, but pretty liberating. I feel free and like my attention is only on the things that are lethal to my recovery. You are right though. If Niall does care, then he will wait for her. But…who says they even have feelings for each other in that sort of way? She didn’t. Therefore, no one has any right whatsoever to assume their feelings for each other when they don’t even know how they feel yet. So far, we know what they want us to know, and that is; they’re just friends, and they’re planning on keeping it that way. Demi’s recovery comes first and I am so proud of her (as a fan since Barney&Friends) for being able to acknowledge that she needs this time for herself.
   If they do decide to get into anything more, so what? That’s okay. They are only human. As for now, Niall is there to support her. From what she says, and from what I’m experiencing as well, she needs support more than she needs the responsibility of having a boyfriend at this point in time.

   I think that she should stay sing… She does need to find herself and whats right for her. Niall is very cute, and I do think they would make an awesome couple. I mean they both went thru being bullied. And not feeling worth it. So ya. Diall, or Nemi. Are cute but they need to live first then think about relationship

   Demi is gorgeous. And so is Niall. But in my opinion Niall should drop Demi and date me. He is amazing!

   i think both of them are amazing but not necessarily as a couple. their personalities are different, and hes carefree 24/7 and i don’t think that would work well with her so focused on her career.

   I think they would be a cute couple, but they should have time to think and not be pressured into dateing they might just want to good friends, ya know?
