[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love this thread!  Here’s my hot take…

Jennifer Garner loved Ben Affleck so much. I don’t know why, but she did. And in return, he walked all over her. And she let him! She helped him get sober, she parented their kids and I think if he is to be considered a “good dad”, it is to her credit. I think he was a miserable little man in their marriage and he’s a miserable little man now.

J.Lo “loves” Ben Affleck but more because she loves what he can do for her - give her a love story, publicity, etc. She doesn’t let him walk all over him which actually makes him respect her more than Jennifer Garner. But I don’t think he’s actually capable of loving another person in a healthy normal way.

I feel bad for J.Lo’s kids. Their dad has a bunch of kids and lives where - Miami probably?  And now J.Lo’s kids live in LA. They thought A-Rod was going to be their stepdad and his daughters would be their stepsisters but nope!  Now it’s the Affleck kids. These poor Muniz kids just have to roll with it.

The Affleck kids are probably pretty grounded - again, to their mom’s credit. They look like it’s all good in the photos, but blending families is never easy. Especially when your dad marries the woman he dated before your mom (suggesting that he actually never really loved your mom and always pined for the “other Jennifer”) and your new stepmom is this very public figure who is obsessed with her public image.

Even a normal divorce / custody arrangement is tough. Ben and J.Lo have been on red carpets all over the place, I bet they actually spend very little time with their kids. Ugh. [/quote]

Their dad lives in Miami when not touring. He is currently engaged to a woman who is only 8 years older than them and is younger than some of their half siblings.[/quote]
