Ben Affleck definitely seems to be enjoying a happy, serene family life with wife Jennifer Garner and daughter, Violet. Doesn't it seem like forever ago that he and that other Jennifer were prancing up and down the red carpet with his and her spray-tans? Well, the repercussions of the relationship took quite a toll on the actor's career.
"What happens in this sort of bleed-over from the tabloids across your movie work," he said. "I ended up in an unfortunate crosshair position where I was in a relationship and [the media] mostly lied and inflated a bunch of salacious stuff for the sake of selling magazines. And I paid a certain price for that. Then, in concert with some movies that didn't work ..."Dang, Ben Affleck is looking downright skinny these days. That's a good thing, right? I can never tell anymore if I should be happy when people are losing weight or gaining. Everyone's got problems now! You have to be very sensitive, guys. I can't be making fun of flaws willy-nilly, lest these people develop complexes. Except that I really love doing it.

How Brad Pitt like to talke about his ex three years down the pike. Hey Ben, boy, JLo wasn't your problem. It was your alcohol and sex additions and those pretty awful movies you made. Now, be a nice man and STFU.

Whatever happened to just saying that your past relationship(s)no longer play a role in your life?.
Why not take responsibility for making bad movie choices?. Take responsibility for not really being talented. Sure he's handsome, but JLo didn't ruin his career, he was already thought of as a so-so actor prior to their relationship.
Anybody remember his movie with Samuel Jackson,everyon else was good, except Ben.

He's looking a little scrawny alright. He'd want to lay off the salad for a while and start eating hamburgers, to get a bit of the beef back. He's at that dangerous age where he could lose it completely. Imagine him a few pounds lighter with a receding hairline. That'd be the end of the action man roles or romantic leads for our boy.
