Due to a hectic time the actress went through, having something special might be exactly what she needs. She's opened up on a toxic relationship she dealt with a while back, but now she seems to be doing what she can to make herself stronger.

Debby Ryan Is Looking Forward To 2016

Ryan discussed her past abuse with MTV News on how the guy she knew had a "need for control."

"He tried to get involved in every aspect of my public life, my personal life, my friendship, my family, my work life," the actress explained. "Ultimately I realized there was something wrong with the situation. As our relationship continued he would cry, threaten to commit suicide, and it started to become physical- he would grab me, pulling me back into rooms if I tried to leave."
