Jessica Simpson has sworn off men.

The singer — who was recently dumped by beau Tony Romo — has vowed to stay single for at least six months.

“She needs time to clear her head, so she’s putting dating on the back burner,” a source told American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“Jess knows she’s overly needy and tends to define herself by the men she’s with.

“Jessica wants to figure out what she does to repel men and fix it.

“For the time being, she’s refusing to be set up, she doesn’t want to date, and she’s definitely avoiding meaningless hookups.”

Meanwhile, it has been claimed that Simpson has gone on a diet to get her “old body” back.

“Right after Tony ended things, Jessica said, ‘I want my old body back,’” a friend of the singer told OK! magazine. “She went into her kitchen, got a trash bag and started to clear it out.

“Jess is serious about getting her body back into fighting shape.

“Working out is helping to give her focus and clear her head. It’s better than sitting around moping or throwing pity parties with ice cream sundaes.”

Jessica reportedly dropped 10 pounds in just the first 10 days of working out.

“She doesn’t want to give anyone more reason to not take her seriously,” explains the pal. “She’s tired of weight being a talking point.”
