Usher opens up about his "experimental" love life

R&B sensation Usher has compared his past relationships to the romantic experiences of his protégé Justin Bieber and admitted that he has lots of "issues" that the teen hasn't been faced with yet. 

Speaking about his own "experimental" love life, the 'Climax' hitmaker explained that his past is complicated and his fame doesn't help the situation but Bieber is starting out with a fresh perspective so can avoid the trials and tribulations that come with being in the public eye if he's smart:

"He doesn’t have as many issues. He knows what he wants. What were my issues? Well maybe not locking into one relationship! I was a little bit more? experimental."

"I’ve had many women. And I understand how to deal with a lot of different ones. But it is complicated when your reality is a fantasy. Fame is the modern double-edged sword."

Despite Usher's reservations about his past relationships, he admitted that he can't help but love women because of their "softness":

"And they’re all different. So, puh-lease, in no way, shape, form or fashion should you ever put them in the same box or category. But I’ve learned that what women like. Confidence."

"And I’ve learned there is a softness that only a woman can possess. And you begin to see it when they have something, like a child, to love."
