Taiwan singer-actress Ariel Lin confirmed in a micro blog post on Thursday, that she had broken up with her boyfriend Cheng Jia Yao because her showbiz career got in the way of their love.

She also spoke out against recent media reports that claim she broke up with Cheng after he lied to her about his age.

"Please stop hurting the people I love, have you all not fallen deep in love like this before?

"Please don't use unverified hearsay to repeatedly fiddle with the open wounds of innocent people," said Lin in her micro blog post.

"Yes we have broken up, but it isn't because of age, or a matter of trust. It is just that the environment is too complicated and the nature of my work is too challenging ... "

Lin went on to express that she hoped Cheng will find a suitable girlfriend soon, in another post with an almost lyrical quality to it.

"We (Lin and Cheng) worked hard on it, tried it, but in the end could only wish each other well and say goodbye," said the 29-year-old actress.

"It hurts, it hurts, but we still must break up. So I hope the media can let them off and give his family the space they need."

"I only hope someone as good as him will find a truly suitable girl and have the complete happiness that I could not give him."
