Dove Cameron is wise beyond her years.

In a new interview with People Now, Cameron suggested that when you truly love someone, maintaining the relationship shouldn't have to be hard work.

"I think when it's the right person, it's actually not that difficult," Cameron said in the interview, after being asked about dating in the public eye. "When something's easy, it's just easy, no matter what your life circumstances are. When you're, like, super in love, you kind of find the time."

Cameron has been dating her Descendants 2 costar Thomas Doherty since earlier this year; she confirmed the couple's relationship in February.

The People Now hosts also asked Cameron about a recent photo she shared on Instagram. It's a vintage image of Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder — but apparently, some fans thought it was a photo of Cameron herself.

"They thought it was me and Thomas... not even close," Cameron said of the photo.

The hosts also asked Cameron about a series of tweets she sent earlier this week promoting self-love, and how she deals with "haters" online.

"I think that anybody who is wanting to cause negativity for anyone else obviously has a great pool of negativity within them. And so rather than feeling like it's about you, you have to understand what you are igniting within them," Cameron told People Now. "It removes the guise that you think it's personal, and then you don't have to feel attached to their opinion anymore."

some people want u to feel badly (or not overtly GOOD) about yourself bc 1. it makes them insecure about their own relationship w themselves

2. our society is obsessed w the underdog bc we love to be the ones to lift people& 'fix' them because it makes us feel good about OURSELVES

or 3. we simply don't know how to break the idea that self love =narcissism and narcissism= evil because that's what's been taught to us

but YOU DONT HAVE TO PLAY THOSE GAMES. that's old news!! loving yourself is the key to the life you want! and then when YOU are happy, cont.

&fulfilled, you then have the security and the freedom to love OTHERS more fully because you're not tripped up on your own needs! -->

it's a win win situation, and it is literally PUTTING love and happiness and positivity out into the ether. being negative/fearful--->
— Dove Cameron (@DoveCameron) June 13, 2017

does NOTHING. fear/negativity is only a function in your brain to keep you "safe"/on the ground.& what progress/growth/beauty happens there?
— Dove Cameron (@DoveCameron) June 13, 2017

but really. everyone needs to chill about this self hatred thing. love urself enough to fill ur own gaps, &watch movies in bed w ppl u love
— Dove Cameron (@DoveCameron) June 13, 2017

***side note: loving yourself is actually *the same* as loving others. tell everyone all the time what you love about them & don't be afraid
