The 'Big Bang Theory' actress split from tennis player Ryan Sweeting in September 2015 after just 21 months of marriage, but the experience hasn't put her off relationships for good.

She said: "What happened changes the way I look at marriage, and that makes me sad. [But] It does not change the way that I look at love. I cannot wait to be in love again."

However, the 30-year-old star isn't quite ready to start dating again yet.

She added to the new issue of America's Cosmopolitan magazine: "I don't feel like I am ready yet ... which is so different for me. I dive into everything."

And Kaley finds it frustrating when she is romantically linked with her co-star and former boyfriend Johnny Galecki, though she admits they are "very close".

She said: "Johnny and I are very close now, but the worst part about that is I don't want stories like that, especially during the divorce, to hurt my ex.

"We have nods with each other. Johnny and I do this thing like a nod that says, 'I got you. I get it.' "
