It's really no shock that Miley Cyrus has finally admitted she and Nick Jonas dated. However, she does have everyone talking about it this morning because of her new—and very candid—remarks in the September issue of Seventeen.

The Hannah Montana star opens up like never before about her and Nick's two-year relationship.

Read on to get all her dishy confessions...

"Nick and I loved each other," Miley says in the magazine. "We still do, but we were in love with each other. For two years he was basically my 24/7. But it was really hard to keep it from people. We were arguing a lot, and it really wasn’t fun.”

Cyrus says it was love at first sight. “We became boyfriend and girlfriend the day we met," she said. "He was on a quest to meet me, and he was like, ‘I think you’re beautiful and I really like you.’ And I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, I like you so much.’ "

And like most teenagers in love (she and Nick are only 15!), Miley didn't take the breakup very well. She says she "went into this weird funk" and "bawled" for a month. On the day they called it quits, she dyed her black because Nick apparently liked it when she had highlights.

"I was like, I want to make my hair black now—I don’t want to look pretty; I want to look hard core," Miley remembers. "I was rebelling against everything Nick wanted me to be. And then I was like, I’ve got to be by myself for now, and just figure out who I really am.”

And it seems she still wants to be alone. When I spoke to Miley last week, she said she had "too much going on right now" to think about boys.

"I'm just not, like, into it right now," she said. "I'm just, like, happy to be single. I like to have fun and just be able to hang out with someone if I want to and not feel like I have to call someone 24/7…I have five brothers and sisters that I love with all my heart, so right now I just want to focus on them."

Nick, however, has reportedly moved on. Though they deny it, Nick and Selena Gomez are said to be more than just friends.

So why has Miley decided to reveal so much at this very moment? Says a source, "She's over him, so she doesn't care anymore."

A rep for Nick did not immediately comment.
