Bipasha: I've met a guy who has a better heart than mine

Bipasha Basu and Harman BawejaBipasha Basu gets candid about her relationship with actor Harman Baweja.

In her own words, Bipasha Basu has never been happier.

She is content, calm, and very comfortable with the man in her life -- actor Harman Baweja.

"For the first time n my life,  I've met a guy who has a better heart than mine.

"I'm free to behave the way I want to, even if my behaviour seems childish," she says.

When asked if the two are engaged to get married, Bipasha, in her characteristically candid way, says, "No, we are not engaged.

"There is this child in me that wants to run away at the very mention of marriage. But the man in my life makes me feel good about myself."

That said, Bipasha also believes that happiness can't be obtained from a partner.

"I don't think the presence of that someone special in your life can change how you feel about yourself. I now realise that our state of mind and our happiness are in our own hands."

"The one important life lesson I've learnt is that we should put ourselves at the top in our list of priorities. I am not a selfish person. But I've learnt to respect my feelings."

Alluding to her previous relationship (with actor-producer John Abraham), Bipasha said, "Earlier, my happiness solely depended on the partner. I've learnt to live on my own now. Harman and I do a lot of fun things together. He pampers the child in me. I've never felt this way before."
