The former The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise bachelorette revealed she's out there actively looking for Mr. Right.

"I've been dating a little bit," Amanda shared with Us Weekly, noting that she's "just going slowly" and isn't serious about any suitors quite yet.

Amanda shares daughters Kinsley and Charlie with ex-husband Nick Buonfiglio, and she said they are handling her dating life very well.

"I don't really talk about it with them, but they always want me to be happy and find somebody," she gushed to the magazine. "It's really cute."

Amanda has had a roller-coaster love life in recent years but has apparently learned a lot and matured.

"Something I've really worked on this past year is learning to forgive people that have never apologized and to be compassionate to people that have hurt me. Remember that they're probably hurting even more," Amanda tweeted on Thursday.

"So, with that being said: if someone goes out of their way to hurt you, it's because they're hurting. Happy people don't intentionally hurt others. And if you're unhappy & catch yourself doing that... that's OK because it's never too late to take the steps to change."

Things have clearly changed in the last six months, because in November 2017, Amanda revealed she was "not dating at all" because she was so busy working on her clothing line and writing a book.

The blonde beauty found fame when she competed for Ben Higgins' heart on The Bachelor's 20th season in 2016, but he sent her packing after meeting her children during a hometown date.

Amanda then appeared on Bachelor in Paradise's third season that summer. She met and fell in love with former The Bachelorette star Andi Dorfman's ex-fiance Josh Murray, who proposed marriage during the Paradise finale, but Amanda and Josh split in December 2016.

Amanda decided to test her luck on reality TV once more when she returned to Mexico to film Bachelor in Paradise's fourth edition in 2017 -- this time, with a guarded heart and a slow approach to dating.

Although she sparked a semi-serious romance with former The Bachelorette star JoJo Fletcher's runner-up, Robby Hayes, their relationship quickly fell apart thanks to photos that surfaced of Robby appearing to kiss another woman at a concert.

Amanda also later claimed Robby cared more about partying than he did about wanting to spend time with her and settle down with a family. She confirmed their breakup in early September of last year.

Robby slammed Amanda when telling his side of the story, and the pair still seem to have some bad blood or hard feelings between them.
