[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Jen didn’t want kids. She wanted to advance her career by doing films and endorsements.

Brad wanted kids. That was Angie’s appeal. Plus, Angie was deep and dedicated to charity. Jen does charity, but isn’t very involved.

I don’t think Jen milked the failed relationship to boost her career. I do think her team curated a victim narrative that included the baby/is she pregnant/is she struggling with fertility issues that kept her on the cover of magazines. [/quote]

... I don't think having kids was Angelina's appeal. It might be that family is what kept them together so long.[/quote]

Agree, why on earth would you choose someone with her history of obvious mental illness to procreate with? He was drawn to her for excitement primarily. Aniston retained all their friends after the breakup. They clearly felt she was wronged, and that seems unlikely if she were "denying" him children. Her friends insisted in that famous Vanity Fair article she was the one who wanted kids. It's possible she had trouble conceiving and he met someone else he was hot for and didn't want to hang around and work it out. And Jolie, who said she never wanted bio children, got knocked up in a red hot second. Who knows how long that relationship would have lasted if there weren't kids involved. Not long, probably. I think he was miserable, but stayed (too long) for the kids. [/quote]

Agree he was 100% miserable with AJ but is ultimately a good guy and wanted to keep the family together.  What a mess.[/quote]

I wonder what the rationale people like you have is. They didn't even actually get married until 2015. They adopted and gestated multiple children together. They seemed glowingly happy for most of their relationship. I assume it was volatile because of the nature of how they got together and how they both seemed very passion driven but to act like he was unhappy but staying there for the family but ALSO that he now hardly sees the kids? How does that track?

[b]They were CLEARLY into each other for most of it.[/b] Anyone who doesn't see that is letting their blind hatred of AJ prevent them from seeing reality.[/quote]

At the very beginning, yes. And they clearly adored their kids. But they often seemed tense and not affectionate with each other.

I don't disagree. I think she said in an interview she wasn't a hugger. She seemed to operate at extremes, either PDA makeouts or a cool remove. She's an odd duck, from a very messed up family.
