Britney's New Dude: "We're Growing Very Close"

Britney and JasonBritney Spears' newest rumored boyflavor of the month, Jason Filyaw, admits that he and Brit have been "growing very close" since their "special" relationship began, and even used the L-word to descibe his feelings for her.

In an exclusive interview with TMZ, Filyaw, self-described as "very spiritual," would neither confirm nor deny that he is dating Spears, but admitted, "I love her, I support her 100% and we are close." Filyaw, who's been attending AA meetings with Spears, also revealed that he is helping Britney with the spiritually "deep" part of her recovery.

Filyaw claims they stayed in touch, but "a few weeks ago ... we met up again at a Los Angeles AA meeting."

Ah, spring.

31. I think she just checked in so she could get a lot of attention, be pampered, fed right and in general, taken care of. Whaddya bet this is just another vacation in disguise, meant to please the public..since most of us seem to think she's all washed up. Time for the recording honchos to find their next young thing to make a star, quick, before the cute young one gets corrupted like this one did. I am sick of Britney, too. Next!

32. OH I can't believe this shit here. WTF is wrong with her??? Can't she go 5 minutes without a DUDE??? She is going right back to drugs and liquor. Not only that but she has to date a druggy at that?? NICE Brit! UNBELIEVABLE!! Isn't she supposed to be focusing on herself?? AND I agree - what a FAME WHORE to give a damn interview to TMZ about their relationship. HA HA.

Kevin! Just take the kids dude. Just take them.

33. AA recommends steering clear of dating/sexual relationships for a year after beginning the program. Just another example of how serious she is about getting help.

35. I'm not sure who is apart of Britney's support system but someone isn't doing their job. Having a new man every few weeks isn't a good at this time. Knowing she has kids and is going through a custody battle with a man who has kids by someone else, lets not even get into that at this point is crazy at best.

41. When I met him I knew there could be no other,
that is until I finally met his brother.

42. PLEASE!

I am so sick of people calling lust, love. How are you going to love someone, when you dont really even know that person. I think it takes at least a few months for the persons "true-colors" to even show, then you can look at the person, and say "Is this someone I can love."

This is a re-bound relationship. Two desperate people looking for a new beginning, and someone to cling to.

Maybe it can grow into something more, but not now. Its too soon for all parties.

43. if this is true, then it's time to close the door on brittney-she has two beautiful kids, and she doesn't know the meaning of love. i think this is just a vacation for her--it's time to take the kids

44. I agree with you # 2.... " Anonymous" He should not be talking about who he sees or meets in AA meetings. And I agree with the comments about not starting a relationship for at least a year (some may take longer..others may take less time). But , If Britney was serious about getting control of her life and her actions ... she would take advantage of what she can get from the program , if not for herself.. at least for her childrren. But her actions have always been self-centered with no regards for little ones. This guy Json is seeking his 15 minutes. Which is sad because who really wants to be associated with Britney right now?

Posted at 6:58PM on Mar 14th 2007 by Hi my name is Bill

45. I am in recovery and have been for five years. The first thing I was told was not to start ANY relationships for the first year which I did not.

This guy obviously does not have good recovery as he knows BS is at a very vulnerable time and the prospect of love is going to sweep her off her feet and recovery will come second. I have seen it all happen before.

Hopefully some long time members of the meeting they go to will have a word with this guy and tell her to leave BS alone.

BS needs to focus on herself right now and needs to be around female AA members and not male members. Part of her recovery is going to be based on her relationships with men (for sure) and she will need to stay away from men for a considerable amount of time.

Someone needs to tell this guy to get lost and because I am in Canada I cannot do it so can someone from TMZ do this for me?

By the way I do respect my recovery and anonymity so the name used is not my own.

Thanks.
