Khloe Kardashian finds the thought of dating again "so scary"

Four years on, the 41-year-old reality star has confessed that it's a daunting prospect stepping back into the dating game.

Discussing being single with her older sister, Kim Kardashian, 45, during an appearance on her Khloe in Wonderland podcast, the host asked the Skims founder if she had met anyone over the past year, to which she replied: "Honestly, no. Isn't that crazy?"

Referring to her legal studies, Kim continued: "I haven't had time. And I'm okay with that. I thought, you know, I am going to be studying. I won't have time."

She then asked her sibling the same question, with Khloe admitting: "It's a tough world out there for me..

"You know what? Now I feel like I've gone so long now. It's like so scary to get back in there."

She further explained: "Like now I'm like, I feel so safe where I am. And I hated how I felt before. That I'm like, I don't want to go back there." She added, "But I can't live like this forever. Like I'm afraid that I'm so afraid. Does that make sense?

Khloe - who was cheated on by Tristan - then suggested it would be a good idea to speak to a therapist about her fears.

She said: "So maybe I need to go to therapy for that."

A source previously told E! News of her decision to focus on motherhood: "[Khloe's new relationship] has slowly fizzled out over the last few weeks. She is enjoying being single with her sole focus on being a mom and her work and is open to finding love again if the right person comes into her life, but is really happy right now. She is not looking and in no rush."

While it has not been confirmed who Khloe was dating, the television personality - who was also married to Lamar Odom from 2009 until 2013 - was said to have been introduced to the mystery man by Kim in June 2022.

At the time, a source claimed: "Khloe is feeling really good with her new mystery man!"
