[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always wondered if he regrets how he screwed up his relationship with Jennifer Garner.[/quote]
I don't think he ever loved her.[/quote]

I don't know how you could have an opinion on something like this either way. Did she ever love him? Does he love JLo? Does JLo love Ben? Does Garner love her current boyfriend? Truly an impossible question for anyone as far removed as we are to answer. Maybe even impossible for someone close to these people, but at least then it would be a much more informed guess.

Based on my own experience, it is hard for me to imagine having three kids with someone and not feeling love for them. I'm sure it's possible, there are sociopaths in the world, it's just hard for me to imagine.[/quote]
I think some people get married because they think they should and/or want a family. I just got the feeling that that was why and that it was never a romance. Of course I don't know, and I don't think he's a sociopath. It's all speculation. He strikes me as someone who was on the rebound from an intense relationship (JLo) and Jen G seemed stable and a good partner. I think people marry for these reasons all the time. When they broke up, I got the sense that he was incredibly relieved and he's not that nice about her when he talks about her, whereas she said in Vanity Fair thar he was the love of her life. It's jusr a feeling I get. I don't think JLo loved her husband's either. Maybe Marc Anthony. [/quote]

He was relieved because he was an addict and in the throes of his midlife crisis--drinking/gambling/cheating--and she had to be 'the nag'.  They had children.  She was doing all the work and protecting them. I see now the ease they have in paparazzi videos at kids' events, walks they take together, talks in the car and I think it is one of the realizations of you don't know how good you had it and did not appreciate it.  Jen is the one that visited him in rehab and pulled him through.  She is the stability.  She seems like she has a huge heart and a good sense of humor. When you break something with such awful betrayal/addiction--it's hard to go back.[/quote]
