Roses for one! Carly Waddell got real about her dating life — and how hard she’s working to meet a new man — after her split from Evan Bass.“I have this fantasy that one day I’m just gonna be out walking around and I’m gonna meet this, like, wonderful man and he is just going to wow me,” Waddell, 37, exclusively told Us Weekly on the “Here for the Right Reasons” podcast. “That’s in my brain.

I’m manifesting that for myself.”The “Your Friends Like Me More” singer, who announced her divorce from Bass, 40, in December 2020, confessed that she hasn’t really started to see other people.When it comes to dating apps, the Texas native told Us, “I don’t know if it’s that I’m not ready or that I just don’t have the time or energy.

I’m not quite sure what my reasoning is.”The Bachelor alum, who started releasing new music in May, explained she’s been “so focused on putting all this stuff together” the past two years — including juggling her and Bass’ two children — that she hasn’t had time to go out on the town. (The estranged couple share daughter Bella, 5, and son Charlie, 3.

Bass also has three sons from a past relationship.)“I could get a babysitter, but I don’t care right now,” Waddell told Us, revealing that she has the little ones 80 percent of the time. “Maybe when someone walks into my life, then I’ll start caring.
