Ryan Lochte Girlfriend 2012: Olympic Champ Has No Time for a Serious Relationship Now

Ryan Lochte does not have time for a girlfriend and is not able to "give fully to a relationship" according to various sources speaking about the Olympic gold medal swimmer.

The 27 year old has been turning heads since beating teammate Michael Phelps to the gold in one of the first swimming races at the Olympics at London 2012, after which he flashed his now-famous diamond grill.

Many females have been wondering whether the superstar has a girlfriend, and fortunately the Team USA swimmer is still single, but reportedly "too busy" for a girl.

Lochte has previously been linked to Australian swimmer Blair Evans, who commented on his relationship status saying, "I don't think he wants to get into a relationship. It just wouldn't be fair to the girl. He doesn't have the time."

Lochte's mom just recently stated in an interview that her son likes to go on "one night stands" as well.  "He goes out on one-night stands," Lochte's mother Ike told TODAY.  "He's not able to give fully to a relationship because he's always on the go."

However, the Olympian qualified his mother's comments regarding his "one night stands" to E! News, saying: "She meant I go on a lot of dates. She didn't mean anything negative. She's new to the whole media thing."

Lochte previously had an interview with Women's Health to discuss what he looks for in a girl. He pointed out that he likes to make eye contact.

"Some guys keep staring, but I'll give her a wink and come back later, because it keeps her thinking," he explained.

He also spoke about what confuses him most about the opposite sex: "It's impossible to know what they're thinking. If I could have one superpower, I'd be like Mel Gibson in What Women Want, where he reads women's minds," he said.

Women are sexiest when they are wearing one of his own shirts, the swimming champ admitted. "One of my love-sleeve button down shirts and that's all. The second sexiest thing:  white jeans," he reveals.

Lochte also admitted that he likes to swap sex stories with his friends.
