The Grammy-nominated producer sweetly admitted that waking up next to his rumored fiancée, who he has been fueling engagement rumors with for months, is the highlight of his day.

‘I’m a real morning person. It’s my favorite time to spend with Sel, because we both wake up really early. It’s like our moment before the rest of the world wakes up,’ he told People.

He went on to describe the Calm Down hitmaker, 32, as his ‘true best friend’ that he gets to ‘do everything in the world with.’ 

‘Every day is the best day of my life,’ he raved while reflecting on his romance with Gomez, who he began dating in mid-2023.

When it comes to relationships, Blanco insisted that there should be ‘no games.’ 

‘I [still] go all out for every date. It doesn’t mean spending your entire bank account. It means being attentive and listening,’ he explained.

This includes making Gomez her favorite foods from scratch, like deep-fried pickles, and homemade Taco Bell. 

Despite achieving incredible success in the music industry, the songwriter, who has worked with Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, Rihanna and Kanye West, finds pleasure in the ‘simple’ things.

He proceeded to share his secret for the perfect first date, which he advised should leave your partner calling their friends to tell them: ‘Oh my God… this was the craziest thing.’ 

‘It’s got to be something insane because you want to leave an impression. The person’s going to be going out on a bunch of first dates, and you got to secure your spot,’ he said. 

Blanco said he tries to create moments in time ‘because everyone’s f**king busy.’ 

‘Everyone has so much work to do, everyone’s so stressed. If we can just sit back and forget everything for an hour to four hours — if it’s a good date, five — then things are good,’ he noted. ‘Don’t you leave a date sometimes and you’re like, “Oh my God, what the hell? Time flew!”‘

Blanco also revealed Gomez is also a romantic. 

‘We go all out for each other. One time Sel was like, “Oh, I want to take you on a date.” We drove somewhere and she had rented out a whole botanical garden for me,’ he recalled. 

The first time they had to deal with long distance, Blanco revealed she made him a bear that said, ‘I miss you so much. You’re going to be okay. I’ll see you when I get back,’ when he pressed its hand. 

‘She’s very good at gifting. She does the same thing as me: Most of our gifts, we make them for each other,’ he noted. 

Additionally, he said Gomez likes ‘simple’ dates, like grabbing fast food together or when he brings her ‘candies and H๏τ Cheetos.’

‘The No. 1 thing you need to do on a date is just listen to what the person’s saying. Don’t talk about yourself the whole time. No one cares,’ he reminded readers. 

When it comes to gift giving, the record producer said he doesn’t like to ‘buy a gift that everyone else is going to buy.’ 

‘Most of my gifts are handmade. Let’s say you had the best night at Six Flags and it was your first date. Keep that ticket and then frame it and give it to them on their birthday and be like, “Oh, this was our first date.” Simple little gestures go a long way,’ he stressed.
