John Mayer: ‘I’m A Little Freaked Out About Dating’

John Mayer may be known for being one of Hollywood’s most notorious ladies’ men, but the singer said he’s “a little freaked out” about diving back into the dating pool.

“I’m not dating,” John told Ellen on an episode of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” airing on Tuesday. “I don’t know if you know this, I have sort of a funny track record, which is actually not that strange given my age. I’m a little freaked out right now about it, to be honest.”

The singer, who has been linked to slew of Hollywood starlets including Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston, said he’s taking a break from having an active social life.

“I’m a little freaked out about dating,” he explained. “So, I’m just going to let time pass and just do my thing.”

John said he hopes the year ahead will be full of peace – regardless of what gossip blogs and tabloids have to say.

“For some reason, who ever I date has been famous for a while. I can’t sit here and be like, ‘Oh please, let me live my life in private with this famous person who’s been around for 15 years.’ I have to figure out what are the things that I ask for and sign up for in terms of cause and effect. The last thing you want is to see me doing is bashing my head going, ‘I’m shocked, that I’m being followed right now,’” he told Ellen. “I have a good heart… I think I may have gotten lost a couple of times, but so does everybody. I’m just going to hunker down. 2010 is [going to be] a peaceful year for me no matter what I do.”
