Sure you can. I’m not sure why you’re hung up on the rebound word. Ben much like J Lo is a serial relationship hopper. There wasn’t even a 3 month difference between his breakup with Jennifer Lopez and relationship with Jennifer Garner. He broke up with J Lo after Labor Day and was with Garner by Christmas |
That's not "relationship hopper", that's someone who likes to be in a couple, doesn't want to be alone. |
This is why J Lo using Violet in pap strolls made me uncomfortable. We all know J Lo probably doesn’t like Garner and thinks she “stole” Ben from her. I think part of the album and movie charade she was on was to stick it to Garner that Ben saved his love letters to her and always loved her. Now, she has egg on her face as Ben and Garmer are spot canoodling around town sans the kids. Once again, Garner is a rebound. Gwneyth Paltrow was smart for calling Ben perpetually unhappy in any relationship after 2 years. That seems to track with history and it’s probably why Garner implied she kept getting pregnant all the time. As soon as Sam was born, Ben was checked out after no more kids arrived |
yup |
That’s the Same thing. Ben and J Lo were still communicating throughout that time he was flirting with his costar Garner so there is a gray area here as to whether Garner was the other woman (unlikely) or if J Lo takes issue with her (seemingly unlikely). J Lo married Marc Anthony in spring of 2004 going from being wed to Cris Judd in early 2002, engaged to Ben Affleck by Christmas 2002, dumped after labor day 2003, reunites some time in the fall to work through the issues and possibly commit to a smaller wedding, and then by Christmas, he’s already interested in his costar Garner, garner leaves Michael Vartan, her ex co star in early 2004, J Lo stars with Michael Vartan as her fiancée and costar in the movie Monster in Law which was filmed in late 2004. It seems there is a history here |
He is prioritizing his kids. Why can't both parents be in the same place with their kids of any age for a milestone event without it being a problem with their new partners? You are the second wife who refuses to coparent with the first wife due to insecurity issues. |
I would bet Ben loves the circus he created with the love triangle and two different Hwood actresses fighting over him. It really helps his ego.
I remember hearing him say J Lo’s fame was insane and everyone in the streets shouts her nickname out like she’s the most famous person in the world. I remember thinking he sounded jealous. He wants to be the star in the relationship. With Lopez, he knows he isn’t |
that's what they want you to think. garner is certainly not going to parade around that ben cheated with her, and jlo wants to believe that jg is an average woman who just happened to be there. it's very unlikely that ben only thought of garner once his relationship with jlo was officially over. before relationships are officially over there months and months where they are in fact over, at least on one side. he surely wasn't celibate during this time. |
+1 Just like how Ryan and Blake clearly got together while filming Green Lantern. |
I am hung on the rebound word because it implies that Ben was not really attracted to JG; that he just jumped into that relationship to heal the great pain he felt after breaking up with JLo. In reality he dumped JLo because he was tired of her, just like he did it again 20 years later. He was relieved, not sad. JLo wants to believe, and wants the world to believe, that JG was Ben's rebound, that she is less than her, and less important or desirable in Ben's mind. This was very likely a part of the motivation for her "The greatest love story..." disaster. But it is not true. Ben was, in fact, attracted to JG even before he broke up with JLo. Yes, they are pretty different, but he doest' really have a type. |
I would say that JLo WANTS to be viewed as the beautiful, sexy, unattainable star in every relationship. That's why she turned her relationship with Ben and their multiple wedding services and extended honeymoon into a media circus. She needs to grow up! She's a 55 year old woman with nearly grown kids! |
Brad Pitt was schupping Angie while married to Jennifer Aniston
Ben Affleck was schupping JG while engaged to Jlo Their people would love for you to believe differently and work super hard to project a clean image for the press. But it is not true, the "they got together in the months following a break up" is as fake as "we ask for privacy at this time, while we still love and respect each other" Tons and tons of bull crap, all of it. |
We are talking about a legal issue, not what date they celebrate. Read the thread |
Or someone who has been divorced multiple times. |
Now I LOVE Jennifer but she's messy with her overlapping relationship. I am just going to leave this here. At the very least there was an emotional affair.
