Why does Jennifer Aniston apparently have trouble with men?

[Anonymous]

Would you all listen to yourselves? No one ever said that George Clooney had "trouble with women" when he was dating a new person every few years. But if a woman is not married in her 40s, she's somehow broken. Pathetic.

And anyway, last I heard, JA was in a longterm relationship. How is that "trouble with men"?

She's in a long-term relationship - actually engaged - but he won't marry her and they are living bicoastal lives. She's in LA. He's in NY.

And, yes, actually, everyone used to mock George Clooney pre-marriage. Don't you remember the joke Tina Fey made about him in Gravity? He would rather float away and die than date a woman his own age. He was married the next year. Of course, there were also the rumors that he was gay.

PP, I need to send you all my trashy magazines.

Those types of jokes are a far, far cry from what people are saying in this thread. A small sampling: broken, insecure, exhausting, up her own arse, crazy, ugly…

Please. It's a huge double standard.

HE won't marry HER, eh? You say this with such certainty.

Fair enough. But Clooney never went on record saying "I WANT to get married. I WANT kids." Anistin has done that plenty. There's some double standard here - but she sort of dug her own hole in the public sphere.

She is really a bad at a managing her public image. After the Brad Pitt incident she did a whole Vanity Fair article talking about how much she still loved him and how much she engaged children and marriage and she kept crying through it.

Because she has to say that. Acting jobs are based on popularity. Not saying those things would make her look bad to the masses.

She's BFFs with Chelsea Handler --- another single 40 something with childhood issues who shuns marriage and parenthood. And that's fine. It's easier for Chelsea to own up to it because that's her schtick. But Jen is supposed to be the girl next door. The reality is that Jen's career will be on a downward trajectory (think: Julia Roberts, her predecessor). She's too old to play the leading lady, and she's no Meryl Streep so she won't garner the limited roles for older women (Reese, Winslet, and Julianne have better odds than she does). Maybe she'll end up back on the small screen some day?

She is still waiting for Brad Pitt to brake up with Angelina and return to her and be stepmom to his kids.

Hmm...Well if that is the case, then perhaps she won't have to wait very long.

Did you guys see that online photo of Brad Pitt giving that speech where his face is all bruised?? I wonder if Angie got fed up w/him and gave him a shiner.

No really, Jennifer Aniston got brutally humiliated in '04 when her perfect marriage (or so we all thought!) imploded when her husband, Brad Pitt fell in love w/a younger more beautiful woman. Then they went on to create the most beautiful family in history while poor Jenn watched all alone at the sidelines. The only guy she has had since Brad who I would consider hotter would be John Mayer but we all know how that ended. Almost immediately after she tried to make Brad jealous at the Oscars.

Also, Jenn is not a pretty person. I mean for an every day person like you or I she is pretty. But for celebrity standards, she really is plain-looking. Kimberly Stewart once referred to her as "homely." That may be pushing the envelope a bit.

On the show Friends, she looked really pretty, yet in real life pictures she looked really average. (Must have been great lighting/make-up/camera angles on Friends.) I think her chin is too pointed, her lips are too thin + her nose is a little big and not well shaped.

Angie on the other hand is flawless to the tenth degree. Thick hair full of natural body, full lips, high cheek bones, a well-sculpted nose and beautiful blue eyes. It was no contest.

Huh. I always thought Roberts wasn't downward, she was just being picky, she's a very good actress. Has Aniston ever won an oscar? (I know, that's not a classification for skill, but it is somewhat self-selecting.) Jenn seems to hate the whole thing, but doesn't know how to not want it. I couldn't handle fame on that level. I'd retreat into a cave, I'm sure it's not easy in many ways, but then once you get there, I bet you can't let it go without a serious struggle.

...I don't know too, maybe I am being ridiculous, but it's hard for me to imagine that she really doesn't want kids or a marriage. Why keep getting engaged? Why marry Brad to begin with? Maybe it's just what every other single-40s-something woman deals with and Chelsea leans into it, but my take is, even through all of the acting and what-not, she seems to be screaming "LIKE ME! - please like me!" No one forced this woman into her field, no one makes her go to these vents, and date these men. She chooses it. Roberts married a camera-guy who stays at home with the kids. Aniston married Brad f-in Pitt. I don't have a TON of empathy, sorry.

Are you a tween? Marriage is a lot more than based on looks you know.
