Martin says that although he loves the perks that come with being in a relationship, “right now” he’s enjoying his time in the dating game.

“To be honest, I love being in a relationship,” said the singer. “I love waking up in the morning and, if you’re not with your boyfriend, sending that first message or text in the morning: ‘Hey baby, how ya doing? I hope you’re fine. I just woke up. I’m doing this and this and this today.’ I loooove that. I really do.”

“And I love picking up my phone and waiting for that reply from that text – it’s great. But at the same time, right now, I’m enjoying being single. I’m enjoying this process. I’m not saying that I don’t want to be in a relationship – I would be lying to you. I love being in love,” he added.
