Miley spoke up Call your dad podcast that she was, frankly, a logical person who was more likely to stoically analyze what went wrong in a situation than freak out about it. Which, she admitted, isn’t necessarily something you can tell about her just by looking.
“I had a very, very public, very big breakup that was over a 10-year period of a relationship,” she explained. “Sitting with me now, I hope you think I’m somehow – which is not the general perception – that I’m very logical. I’m very organized and very kind in the middle. And so I love lists. Lists keeps my whole f–king world on track.”
Relationship autopsy is no different.
“And so, with heartbreak, I tried not to get lost in the emotions,” Miley continued. The end of a relationship can be a devastating loss, but “not to get lost in emotions, to focus on logic, is to make a list of what you gained and what you lost, what they contributed to your life and what they subtracted and value each of those things by one to 10, and then you add them all up.
“And if the person adds more to your life, then you know what is expected for your next relationship and what they subtract, you know what you will never accept again.”
