'The Heart Wants What It Wants' songstress Selena Gomez has revealed that she learned a lot from dating Justin Bieber and will take that knowledge into any future romantic situations. 

Although Gomez has been romantically linked to DJ Zedd (pictured below with the beauty), she implied to V magazine that she's still unattached although now very aware of the kind of boyfriend she would like in the future:

"I think the next time [I have a boyfriend] will be much different ... which will definitely not be anytime soon... That's a growing up kind of thing. I was 18 years old, and it was my first love. The older I get, I'm guarding certain things more."

Referring to her relationship with Canadian sensation Bieber, Gomez added: "When you're young and you're being told so many different things... it almost felt like all we had was each other, like the world was against us, in a way. It was really weird, but it was incredible. I would never take it back in a million years. You live and you learn, you know?"
