The Voice judge, who refers to co-star Christina Aguilera as "like rhinestones," says the other judges on the show weren't prepared for his personality.
"I'm a very competitive person and I think it took a minute for everyone else to get it," he told the magazine. "I can be a huge pain in the a**. But I'm also really nice and a completely affable and socially adept person. There's a difference between being an a**hole and a pain in the a**..."
So is that what went wrong with his relationship with model Anne V.? The two split less than a month ago with rumors that the singer was "blindsided." While he doesn't go into specifics, he does seem interested in long-term commitement.
"I'm extremely fascinated by marriage," he said. "I want to study marriage. I want to learn about it. I want to know it. I want to figure out whether or not I want to do it. I'm not just going to leap into it, because that's not good for anybody."

"I'm a big fan of not doing everything the way that I'm supposed to," he said. "I like to spike in some weirdness."
