Lily Collins' boyfriend list will spew the names of Zac Efron and Jamie Campbell Bower and even if such relationships did not work out, the brunette beauty claimed that she learned something from them.

"You can get different things out of different relationships with different people. You can take every experience and try to learn something about yourself - maybe something that was making you happy or unhappy, qualities you did or didn't like about that person - and take that with you, so at least you know the boundaries of what works for you," said the 25-year-old.

The "Mirror, Mirror" actress likewise believes that it's not fair to immediately reject someone just because he or she isn't your type. Her interview with online magazine The Edit proves that she is someone who puts emphasis on the getting-to-know-you phase of a relationship.

"When you're just being yourself, that's when you attract someone with the qualities that are most suitable for you. The second you write someone off because they're 'not your type,' you shut yourself off from a person and an experience that might be perfect for you. Sometimes you just need to say yes," she explained.

For those vying to become Lily Collins' boyfriend, the "Love Rosie" star wants someone who does not always agree with her just because she is a celebrity: "It's important to have challengers, not in an offensive way, but someone who reminds you that what you are thinking is not always correct."
