Chelsea Handler broke up with Jo Koy after nearly one year of dating because she realized that \u201cyou can’t change a person intrinsically.\u201d<\/p>\n

The former \u201cChelsea Lately\u201d host opened up about her split from her fellow comedian on the \u201cWe Can Do Hard Things with Glennon Doyle\u201d podcast Thursday and said she had to walk away from the relationship because she wanted to stop herself from breaking as a the result of bending too much.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s nice to bend for people. It’s nice to learn how to compromise. It’s nice to learn how to demonstrate my love publicly. \u2026 I believe Jo needed that,\u201d Handler, 47, explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was so inspired by us, but Jo didn’t crack me open. My psychiatrist cracked me open, and then I was open, and then I was able to bend for somebody. \u2026. But you can’t change somebody intrinsically.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cLife Will Be the Death of Me\u201d author admitted she was \u201cwilling to do so much bending\u201d until she reached \u201ca line.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m proud of myself because I didn’t let myself cross that line,\u201d she shared, later adding that they actually broke up about a month before publicly announcing the news.<\/p>\n

Handler discussed how hard she has worked to process her trauma through therapy and meditation and suggested that Put, 51, was not necessarily willing to meet her halfway.<\/p>\n

\"Chelsea
\u201cI love him, and he’s on his own path,\u201d she shared. \u201cIf I have to choose one person, I have to choose myself.\u201d<\/figcaption>

\u201cI understand the wanting to avoid that, the avoidance of wanting to look in with that,\u201d she explained, \u201cand I think I’m at a place in my life that I have to be with somebody who is where I’m at with that.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat’s not to say anything about Jo Koy,\u201d she added. \u201cI love him, and he’s on his own path. If I have to choose one person, I have to choose myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cChelsea\u201d alum also addressed her social media post announcing the news and said she thought Koy \u201cneeded to hear those things, and I really thought I needed to say them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Chelsea
The pair had dated for nearly a year.<\/figcaption>

\u201cNo one cheated or anything like that. It just didn’t work out,\u201d she clarified. \u201cI did everything I could to make it work, but it didn’t work out. I wanted to make sure that everybody knew that this is a different me. This is the first time that I’ve ended a relationship where I’ve felt like an adult.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the split, Handler credited the \u201cEaster Sunday\u201d star with reinvigorating her love for stand-up comedy and inspiring her to write a new book.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
