The SKIMS founder, who’s been married three times said of dating again:
‘I definitely will take my time, and I think there’s so many factors especially when you have kids and being mindful of people that enter in your life.’
‘If I can look at everything that I did wrong and try to not make the same mistakes and really take my time, I think it just has to be different for me’
Kim, whose last romance was with 29-year-old comedian, Pete Davidson, added that she’s not giving up on love,
‘I think I’ll always be a hopeless romantic and always want to be in love and definitely love sharing my life with someone and love creating a life with someone.’
‘It’s obviously such a hard place to be in because how do you go about it?’
‘There’s so many factors, but I’ll always believe in love and I’ll always want that and I think that’s such a magical part of life. But I think I’m so comfortable taking my time to not rush it.’
She added that
‘There’s so much going on that I’m not lonely, and I think that that is really important,’
‘I believe, like, I always believe. And I think that whatever’s meant to be will be.’
As for what she thinks can make a relationship long-lasting Kim stated that
‘I think just having that mutual respect, treating people with respect is just a given.’
‘Every relationship can be different. If you have just a mutual respect around the, across the board, that’s I think the number one thing’.
As much as she believes in love, Kim added that she doesn’t ‘need people to make me happy’ and is ‘not really ever searching for something.’
‘I’m really content. My babies make me happy, my family, my life. You know, experiences make me happy.’
