| Isn't it interesting that both his ex and current wives gushed about him on father's day. Hollywood's bar for fathers is kinda low to think of an alcoholic dad you cheats on his children's mom and breaks their family as the best dad ever. |
| It’s all a show. |
| It’s just that Jennifer garner is extremely gracious and really trying to make her kids not feel like their dad is not an ass. He might also be a better dad now that they are divorced and he only has to do it occasionally. He’s probably a good fun dad but just terrible at the day to say responsible stuff. |
Jennifer Garner a try hard? You don’t say. |
| He’s probably a fine person outside of his addiction. But the reality is his addiction took away years of his life and someone (probably JG) had to pick up the pieces and wait till he could actively participate in his responsibilities once again. I think that his relationship with JLo is unique because I think her addiction is fake and money and power and his his alcohol, she’s allowed to indulge and he can’t do it only lasts so long. I think people assume since she doesn’t drink it’s a great fit but I dunno bout that! |
Likely true and good for her. I am sure it is easier to take the high road when you have her resources but still not easy. |
| It’s show business, what do you want? |
How terrible for a mom not to trash her kids' father. She's a class act. |

Why is he doing Dunkin Donuts commercials?
Ben needs a check. |
| People deserve a second chance. He did terrible things under the influence, no doubt. But if he’s actively working his recovery, he’s not that same person. Many addicts relapse because of the shame, it’s a sad spiral. Shame is hard to navigate especially when you’re in the public eye, people judge everything you do right to your face. |
He just dropped $60 million on a new house. He doesn't need a check. |
Creating that generational wealth |
| We just watched Air. Physically he seems to have aged better than Matt Damon (though that may have been the fat middle aged character Matt was playing...) |
| Whatever makes Jennifer Garner and her children's lives better. I support her 100%. I also with Lopez and Affleck the best for their kids sake. |
He has a decades-long history of loving Dunkin' Donuts, as well as a decades long campaign to get them out to CA. This is not surprising at all. |
