After that it was just like three months here, six months there - nothing solid. I've never lived with anyone.""I never had a boyfriend (in the band). Some of my bandmates full-on had boyfriends and I was like, 'How are you doing that?'."She further said, quoted by 'Female First UK': "It was the biggest opportunity you'll get in your life, so don't f*** it up by having someone drag you down."But Melody knew exactly what she was looking for in a man.When asked at the time, she replied: "I like someone who is ambitious and has direction, and has some money."
