6 Reasons Selena Gomez Is Better Off Without Justin Bieber

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Fairfield chapter.

Ladies, I am sad to say that Jelena is officially OVER (again)! Although Justin will always have a special place in our hearts, I guess it was too late to say sorry, because Selena is single and ready to mingle!

It was only a matter of time their rekindled relationship would come to an end. Although, we all were probably low-key wishing Justin’s dad’s wedding would inspire them to share a future together.

But, who knows?! They’ve broken up and gotten back together before so maybe it will happen again! Until then, here are 6 reasons why Selena is better off without Justin:

1. There’s the common saying that people never change, they get older and hopefully wiser. Although their love was strong, sometimes love can rekindle when couples have the time to be apart for little.

2.  Haven’t we all noticed a big difference with Selena’s appearance? Since she has been on-and-off again with Justin, her sense of style has been lacking. Coincidentally, whenever she is dating Justin, we tend to notice this pattern. Although she might be hurting now, her wardrobe will thank her later.  

3. Lately, Selena has not been spotted with her squad. We all can’t help but wonder, was it Justin’s presence that is keeping them away? Or is it the #badblood between Justin and Taylor?

4.  Although we all swoon over “Jelena”, it was sort of “toxic,” as Britany would say. With all that is happening with Selena lately, especially medically, she doesn’t need any more added stress in her life.

5. Maybe her anxiety is not entirely all from her Lupus Disease, and maybe it had something to do with Justin being back in her life? As we have all seen in the past, no Justin equals no problems.   

6.  Lastly, Selena is a strong and independent woman, who seems happier and in higher spirits without Justin. Unfortunately, Jelena is on the outs, but with these two, anything could happen.
