[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New interview with Affleck, blames drinking on feeling trapped in his marriage. He's such a jerk. Good luck to JLo.

Why would he say something like this. It is so mean and his ex has been incredibly kind. I think the trapped feeling was that she was pregnant when they married but he had two more kids after so he kept it going for awhile. I am guessing Jen G can be controlling but maybe she is controlling because she was married to a child. I hope this new/old relationship works for the sake of his kids.[/quote]

I think he's kind of a douche, but I didn't think the quotes were that bad. [b]He laid the blame for the drinking on himself[/b], praised Garner as a mom, and was real about the fact that the marriage didn't work.

The US Weekly headline definitely sensationalizes it.

Whether he and JLo last remains to be seen. I think she's a force and isn't going to compromise a lot. It's a recipe for success, but he may not be able to keep up.

I LOVE Jennifer Garner, so I feel like this is a betrayal, but there is something I like about the idea of Bennifer 2.0 being Hollywood's GenX glamour couple a la Annette Benning and Warren Beatty.[/quote]

He said he was drinking because he felt trapped. That's blaming Jen, not himself. He's a jerk. He should have just shut up about it. I used to love him, but the past few years have made me despise him.[/quote]

I think he's a jerk and J. Garner is definitely the more mature and responsible one here; but I do think people are taking his comments out of context. To me, what he was trying to say was that he started drinking because of the problems he was experiencing in his marriage.They had problems and they were fighting; and because they felt like they had to stay in the marriage (for the kids), he felt trapped which caused him to drink more.  I'm sure J. Garner felt trapped too.[/quote]
