Mayer and Perry parted ways last week after dating for about a year, reported Aceshowbiz.
The 35-year-old spoke about the break-up on Ellen Degeneres show. When the host asked Mayer about the split with Perry, he answered with a one word answer, "Correct".
"Listen, it was a very private relationship going in. It was a private relationship during, and it's a private relationship, still. I've been much happier since then. I'm on the same journey as everyone else. Coupling is a tricky thing," Mayer added.
