Sam Smith talks relationships
Sam Smith always wants what he's "never going to get" in relationships.
The 'Stay with Me' singer - who recently suggested he has split from boyfriend Jonathan Zeizel - admitted he met a "perfect" guys at the same time as the model but decided to date the "dangerous" man instead because he likes the "excitement".
In an interview believed to have been conducted before he split from Jonathan, Sam said: "In relationships, I feel so much more comfortable wanting what I'm never going to get. Like recently, I met two guys. One of them on paper is perfect and ticks all the boxes. The other is dangerous and--well, he ticks boxes actually, too.
"I've chosen him. I want that excitement. I want something that's unobtainable."
The 22-year-old singer also admitted he dislikes dating apps because they have taken away "mystery" and he finds it sexier having to "work" for someone to want to undress for him.
"I made a statement recently about how Grindr and Tinder and those dating apps are just killing romance. People are losing the ability to just walk up to people in a bar and say hello. Sex is on tap, isn't it, with apps like that?," he told America's GQ magazine.
"It may work for some people, but I miss the mystery. I find it much more sexy when someone's fully dressed in a suit and you've got to work to undress them. Do you know what I mean? Instead of them just immediately being naked for you.
"I sound like a complete old soul right now, but I am. I just feel like people need role models, you know, that are dressed."
