Meg Ryan doesn't have any regrets about ending her relationship with John Mellencamp for good after dating on-and-off for a decade.

“Meg loves that John is still out on the road entertaining his fans, but she’s past the point of wanting to give things another try!” declared a source to a news outlet.
“Meg felt John could never settle down — and his active dating life since then has borne out her fears,” continued the insider, who snitched that despite his booming dating life, he still drunk-dials Ryan.
"He says Meg remains the love of his life,” dished a source. “But she tells him he’s happier out on the road than he would ever be with her, and she doesn’t want the life of a rock ’n’ roll widow.”
Mellencamp's other former flames include the likes of fellow rocker Billy Joel’s ex Christie Brinkley, a hometown Indiana woman named Jamie Sherrill, realtor Natasha Barrett and beauty guru Marianelly Agosto.
