Awkward Reunion Alert: Kristin Cavallari's 8th Grade Boyfriend Appearance Goes Totally Wrong!
So Kristin is currently on tour for her "Let's Be Honest" podcast and things got a little... unexpected recently. She decided to invite a special guest on stage someone from way back in her past: her 8th-grade boyfriend Johnny . Yep you heard that right the guy she even lost her virginity to back in middle school!
Kristin was actually excited about this reunion. She said this relationship was "impactful" and she always remembered it as "sweet and loving". They had even reconnected and talked for weeks before the tour stop. She wanted Johnny to feel comfortable so she even gave him the questions beforehand to prepare. Sweet gesture right?
Well things did not go as planned. Kristin admitted she was "really let down". Instead of the fun nostalgic moment she imagined Johnny seemed nervous and apparently his way of dealing with nerves was to "give her a hard time and put her on blast" on stage. Ouch. She said it was "the complete opposite of how she had envisioned it going" and that it "really threw her". It was not the walk down memory lane she was hoping for!
Kristin mentioned you can actually see this whole awkward encounter in her upcoming reality show "Honestly Cavallari: The Headline Tour" which is coming to E! this summer. So get ready to cringe-watch that moment. She said the whole thing left her feeling "bummed" and it stirred up emotions about past guys in her life who have a tendency to put her down publicly. It sounds like this reunion made her realize some things about her past relationships.
From 8th Grade Drama to Dating App Decisions: Kristin Cavallari Rethinking Her Love Life Strategy

The day after the awkward on-stage reunion Kristin told her friends she actually "cried" about it. She confessed she has "never understood why the men in my life publicly have always wanted to put me down." It's a tough realization but Kristin is taking it in stride. She is focusing on herself now and realizing "I'm enough. I love myself." Instead of seeking validation from these past or potential partners she is choosing to give that love and energy back to herself.
Kristin is making some changes to her dating life too. She mentioned she was "talking to a couple guys" while on her podcast tour but has decided "I'm done. Clean slate." She is starting fresh and being "really serious about who I let into my life now." She is even rethinking dating apps. She had gotten back on Raya a few weeks prior but is now questioning if it's really for her. She is wondering if she was just on there for "dopamine hits" and has decided to "pour all of that back into myself." It sounds like Kristin is taking a break from actively dating and focusing on self-love and figuring out what she truly wants.
