Pop star Miley Cyrus says she was earlier scared of being alone, but post her split from fiance, actor Liam Hemsworth, she has managed to conquer that fear.
"I was so scared of ever being alone, and I think, conquering that fear, this year, was actually bigger than any other transition that I had, this entire year," the 21-year-old said on a TV show, reports aceshowbiz.com.
"I don't ever want to have to need someone again, where you feel like, without them, you can't be yourself," she added.
The "Wrecking ball" singer said that she enjoyed wearing a diamond ring, which she got after engagement, at the age of 19.
"I don't think I realised what 19 truly is, and I got engaged at 19, and I definitely wouldn't change being engaged. It was so fun wearing a fat rock (diamond ring) for a few years. But now, I just feel like I can actually be happy," Cyrus said.
"I wait for those moments of silence, when I'm just at my house, by myself," she added.
