"I thank my loves for being so in tune to what is good and right for me and my heart... I hope you will surround yourselves with people who will be there for you thru the bad times, not just the good. I thank everybody who was here for me when I needed them as the ones who weren't really broke my heart.

A source close to Grande told Hollywood Life why things didn't work out for the young couple. The insider confessed, "Jai's too immature for her."
