Early last year, Rihanna's high-profile relationship with Chris Brown came to a devastating end. The couple had been painted as the picture of perfect. But, they were revealed to actually be in an abusive relationship and the media ate it up. In the end, the couple was broken up via court order.

For the first time since the breakup, Rihanna has opened up about her time after their split. She said she was lost for a long period of time because she had grown so close to Brown. Rihanna felt as if she was out of touch with herself and she needed a wakeup call. The wakeup call was their public fight, which forced her to move on.

While the first few months without Chris Brown were very rough on her, things soon got better for Rihanna. During the spring of 2009, she met Drake and the two began dating. Things did not work out between the two, but she ended up making a good friend. Also, her friendly split from Drake gave her the confidence to move on with her love life and she eventually found L.A. Dodger, Matt Kemp.
