Maybe someone should tell Adnan Ghalib that he’s no longer dating Britney Spears. The shady paparazzo believes that he is still in a relationship with the pop star.

The British-Afghan met the singer in December 2007 and the two dated until the singer’s emotional breakdown last Spring.

According to Heat Magazine, the photog was recently overheard telling friends that he is Britney’s boyfriend, despite the fact that the singer obtained a restraining order against him just two weeks ago.

“I still love Britney. I’m her boyfriend,” Adnan told a pal. “Britney has a beautiful soul. We share something really special. The truth about us will come out eventually, but it’s not for me to talk about. I love her.”
