The 28-year-old publicist also addressed Luyendyk's recent claim that their unedited breakup was actually edited.
Becca Kufrin is living on cloud nine.
Fans watched the 28-year-old publicist kick off her season of The Bachelorette on Monday night, but she revealed last week that's she's engaged -- and spoke to ET's Lauren Zima all about how her mystery man is "different" from her now-infamous ex, Arie Luyendyk Jr.
"It feels so different because the relationship and the guy is different. And this time, it feels better suited for me. It's like, this better fit for me and what I need in my life," she explained. "And I am willing to do anything it takes to make it work to support my partner."
"I was asking for a teammate, a 50/50 throughout the entire season. I feel like I truly found that," Kufrin gushed. "So we'll have each other's backs through the time where we have to stay private, and then well continue that and share it with the world."
The brunette beauty revealed that like former Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay, she and her fiancé do have code names for each other. She's just not ready to share them just yet. One thing's for sure, however: she's dead set on making it down the aisle.
"I better [marry him]," she joked. "He better marry me!"
Monday's Bachelorette premiere was a big night for Kufrin, who finally got her chance to find love again after her brutal split from Luyendyk last season on The Bachelor. The race car driver proposed to Kufrin on his season finale, only to change his mind weeks later and break up with her to pursue a relationship with his runner-up, Lauren Burnham.
It was perhaps the show's most controversial finale ever.
"I'm happy for them," Kufrin says. "Good for them, and I'm just focused on me and my journey, and I do wish them the best."
