Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez coming together one more time is not a good idea, says source
As per RadarOnline‘s sources, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez’s hopeful reunion has left the former’s friends concerned. During the latest event, the former couple was seen laughing and whispering. However, the “Gone Girl” star’s friends have called this behavior “worryingly familiar.”
A source stated, “Ben and Jennifer are clearly back in each other’s orbit – and it’s far more than just work.
The source further added, “The chemistry between them is obvious, and it’s stirred up a lot of old feelings.” Nevertheless, “people close to Ben are worried.” “They feel this reunion could leave him emotionally vulnerable, which is risky given everything he’s been through,” the source continued. The filmmaker’s friends are concerned about him due to the renewed attention on his relationship with Lopez.
Another insider shared Affleck is “really trying to keep himself steady, but the constant media frenzy that follows Jennifer is overwhelming.” The individual continued, “He’s never been comfortable with that world – the cameras, the attention, the pressure.”
The 53-year-old reportedly “cares deeply for her, but she thrives on that lifestyle, and he doesn’t.” “That clash is what tore them apart before,” the insider added.
Moreover, a close friend of Lopez claimed that she “has this instinct to take care of Ben – she adores him, but she’s always trying to fix things for him.”
The friend continued, “It comes from love, but it can wear her down. He craves calm and balance, while she’s fueled by intensity and emotion.” One insider shared Affleck “genuinely wants to be there for Jennifer.”
However, “being in her world means dealing with the constant spotlight, and it drains him.” “He’s told friends he longs for a simple, quiet life – something calm and private – yet he just can’t seem to walk away from her,” the insider explained.
