In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the frontman talks honestly about his suicidal thoughts and dealing with a "very rough 10 years," HuffingtonPost.com reports. But there is one thing he is sure about: his feelings for Jessica Simpson.

"If I go, 'Oh, we're just friends,' then it's like, 'Did they go out, did he dump her or she dump him, what happened?' It has nothing to do with any of that," he told Rolling Stone.

Jessica Simpson isn't rushing into things with rumored new beau Billy Corgan.

"They are getting to know each other," a source close to Simpson, 29, tells People magazine. "He's a nice guy."

Check out pictures of Jessica's controversial curves

The country singer is taking things slow with Corgan, 42, whom she was spotted with over the weekend in New York City (where Simpson's sister Ashlee is performing on Broadway).

Jessica's pal explains that even though she's being cautious with Corgan, she's "happy to be dating again" -- especially after having her heart broken by ex Tony Romo in July.

"She's a great girl -- she's really sweet," Simpson's friend says. "She's had a tough year. She deserves the best."

Simpson has been friends with Corgan for awhile. In September, she posted on Twitter: "My friend, Billy Corgan, has a pure and enlightening outlook on faith."

Jessica Simpson stepped out with rumored fling Billy Corgan Tuesday night in NYC.

In new photos, the singer, 29, is spotted leaving her hotel en route to see little sis Ashlee Simpson-Wentz in Broadway's Chicago. The Smashing Pumpkins singer, 42, is in the background.

A source close to Simpson, who split from Tony Romo in July, tells E! News, "She has fallen hard and is smitten" with the rocker. The source says the two are "officially dating."

But pals of the pair don't approve.

"He's just another in an endless string of Jessica's boyfriends," the insider tells E! "They think he's too old for her. No one takes any of her boyfriends seriously anymore because she has had so many. They're sick of all of them being 'the one.'"

A rep for Simpson did not deny the report to People.com, saying she does not comment on her client's personal life.

Simpson posted about Corgan on Twitter this past September.

"My friend, Billy Corgan, has a pure and enlightening outlook on faith. Go to his new website!" she wrote.
