In an interview with the radio show 'The Breakfast Club,' one of the hosts asked her if she was dating anyone. She hesitated with her response, saying 'um' a couple of times, which might hint that she has a significant other, but she's keeping it on the low because of how her past relationships turned out to be.

The singer talked about why it was important for her to take some time.
"I feel like right now, I'm in a space where I've never been before in my life and I don't know anything about myself, so I'm learning about myself, and honestly I think I was in a lot of these unhealthy relationships because I didn't have enough self-love built up and I fixed the way I felt about myself so these situations didn't happen to me anymore. You can't be scared to be lonely."
It is fair to say that SZA isn't going to straight-up reveal much about her dating history, as she explained: "I never really talked about relationships in a direct way. I used to be very symbolic, very figurative, and also just kind of scared to talk about the way I felt in a literal way."
In her critically acclaimed album, 'Ctrl,' SZA wrote lyrics about "unhealthy relationships." In the song 'The Weekend,' she sings about dating a guy who was involved in a relationship with another woman:
"My man is my man is your man/her, this her man too/My man is my man is your man."
Solana had a song on her album titled 'Supermodel,' She bluntly addresses a no-good ex and her insecurities.

SZA explained how this song was the easiest to make as she went through everything expressed in it. She recalled,
"I was dating this boy and I really liked him, and he just really had a lot of access to supermodels and beautiful women. The same boy that I wrote 'Supermodel' about, he laughed at everything I tried to do. If I tried to sing, or if I thought I was too cute, he'd be like, 'Haha, no.' I could be bad, but to a certain extent. 'Don't think you're too bad. Don't think you're above me.' "
That ex, SZA said, taught her about what's truly important in a relationship and helped her realize why comparing herself to other women is toxic.

The singer says how, at a younger age, it is already difficult to understand oneself and personality. And in that time, if one only focuses on the insecurities and comparing oneself to others, especially when it involves a significant other, then it messes with the whole process of building confidence and being able to express yourself.
There was a rumor that SZA got married secretly in 2018, but no legal confirmation was disclosed. The singer was speculated to be dating a famous Los Angeles promoter who was already married to someone else.

The rumor went on for a while. However, there was no legal proof or any witness to it. The rumor was based on SZA acting weirdly in her professional life and wearing the same wedding ring the producer's wife had.
What SZA said about toxic relationships is a powerful statement as the influence of social media in our lives is enormous, and we tend to be bombarded with content, which makes the younger crowd question themselves.
