Is Selena Gomez In Love with Justin Bieber?

In a new interview with Seventeen, Selena Gomez is asked about two of the most important topics for any teenage girl: love and Justin Bieber.

Is the 18-year old pop star truly head over heels for the adorable teen icon? Gomez doesn't directly answer that question, but does tell the magazine:

"I think as I’m getting older and having more in-depth relationships, maybe I’ll experience it. At the moment, I don’t know, exactly, if I’ve been in love."

Gomez and Bieber are no longer keeping their relationship a secret, of course (watch her blush over him HERE), because Selena says "I don’t like hiding," adding:

"I do like to keep certain things to myself, but at the end of the day, I’m eighteen, and I’m going to fall in love. I’m going to hang out with people, and I’m going to explore myself, and I’m okay with that."

Among other topics discussed in the interview: Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift. A few excerpts:

On Swift: I’d love to go on vacation with Taylor. I’ve been able to fly to Nashville to see her, and she’ll come to LA a lot, but it’d be nice to get away. It would be really fun. I’ve known Taylor for over three years now, so we’re at the point where we just get each other.

On Lovato: There’s an amount of love that can never—no matter what—be taken away or torn apart, no matter the situation. There are certain people who you will always, always love, so if anything, this just reminded me of how much I truly love her.

On threats from Bieber's fans: I do see the passion that a lot of these girls have, and it’s beautiful. I love it. I really do. It’s special.
