Karrueche Tran has unwillingly been put under a microscope these past few months, ever since her seemingly-great relationship with Chris Brown disintegrated as Rihanna came back into his life. While many can say she “asked for it” by even getting into the relationship with Breezy, it still is unfair she has to deal with a breakup on such a public level, while also watching someone she loves flip-flop between her and someone else. It can’t be easy! For the very first time since it all went down, the model opened up to VIBE Magazine about the nature of their relationship and the aftermath of sorts. We showed you a photo from the spread yesterday, now see some excerpts from the interview below.

After explaining that the concept from her clothing line actually came from Chris, she then opened up about him:

How do you feel about it? Are you happy with your love life at the current moment?
I mean at the time, but right now of course not. It’s a lot going on but it could be a lot worse. And that’s how I look at life. I take it for what it is. I move forward, grow from it and at this point, that’s what I’m doing. I’m not gonna sit and dwell and become consumed in that negativity because I could very much be that person, especially when things are so public and so thrown in my face. But like I said, things can be much worse. So I’m good.

Do you think you’ve found the person you could spend the rest of your life with?
I do care about him and I do love him. Family is very important to me, and I’ve always put it in my mind to remember that. For me, I’d love to meet somebody and grow and build a foundation, but I don’t want to even think about marriage right now. I can’t even get a clothing line out. (laughs)

Do you think there’s ever gonna come a point where it’s just gonna be too hard to maintain a friendship with him?
I don’t know. I’m not sure. I’ve been on a roller coaster for the past year so who knows?

If you could sit down with Chris and Rihanna in the same room, what would you want to get off your chest?
For everybody, emotionally, that would just be way too much. I’m a very mature person so if the time ever did come where we would need to sit down and talk, I’d do it. I’m a mature person. I can work it out but that would be a lot. (Pause) Yeah, it would be a lot.
