Megan Fox isn't afraid to wear her heart on her sleeve. If her very public (and passionate) relationship with fiancé Machine Gun Kelly didn't reflect her approach to love enough on its own, then her new candid collection of poems titled Pretty Boys Are Poisonous will. While promoting the book, the actress has opened up about the high highs, low lows, and the abuse she experienced in past relationships. During her most recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, Fox even revealed that she used to fall in love with her co-stars while on film sets.

"When I was young, I was really rebellious and wild and was always running away to fall in love with a new love, every costar," she told Barrymore, adding that at the time, she was very much a "free spirit." "I was addicted to falling in love, and I think I probably hurt a lot of people in that process too, because a lot of people have been in love with me and I did not respect or honor that."

Fox then explained that it was her kids — she shares three sons, Noah Shannon, Bodhi Ransom, and Journey River, with her ex-husband Brian Austin Green — who changed her whole mindset on relationships and love.

"When I had kids, something happened in me," she shared.  "... I think it’s a major part of my soul’s journey in this lifetime to not repeat my parents’ pattern with my kids, and I was always very aware of that, so this selfless person was born when I birthed my first child."

Elsewhere during the interview, Barrymore questioned Fox about the worst thing she had ever done in a past relationship, to which Fox responded, "I don’t know if that’s something I can say on TV," before sharing the story regardless.

"When I was young, I did have a temper and I was wild, I got mad and I took a bunch of paint and I painted a Friedrich Nietzsche quote all over [this guy's] wall, so he had to repaint his house afterwards," she recalled. "It was like a really angry quote about, like, how life is futile, you suck basically. So he had to repaint the bedroom."

She added, "Anyone who dated me in my early 20s should probably write their own poetry book, because I was not a peach."
