Jen Garner better hold on to her man tightly. I've always known/said Ben is the love of JLo's life. The body language she had with him was very telling but he never truly seemed as into her. Too bad she had a good guy in Cris Judd and cheated on him with Ben. And let's not even go with the mess that happened with Marc and how shady they were when they got married. I don't think Garner has anything to worry about. I doubt Ben would ever be interested in J. Lo again. I think it was a case of her being a conquest, and once he had her he didn't want her anymore.

Her public kvetching about Ben breaking her heart reminds me so much of HRH going on (and on) about her break up with Brad. Both women were used to having the upper hand in their romantic relationships, and both were suddenly dumped. And in both cases the men who dumped them, quickly moved on and settled down, without looking back. Jlo's attempt to reshape her image by shouting from the rooftops that she's actually human and less-than-perfect, seems like a desperate effort to sell records. Or books. Or perfume. After years of shitting on lilies, white candles, and $10M butt insurance, I'm just not buying the softer side of Jlo.

I don't think that a relationship between J.Lo and Ben would have worked long-term because there's only room for one star in their worlds. Jen Garner doesn't seem to mind playing second fiddle to Ben.

And let's not even go with the mess that happened with Marc and how shady they were when they got married. Dayanara (Marc's other ex-wife) knows that all too well; too bad they muzzled her. I usually don't buy it when magazines analyze body language in pictures of stars, but this picture speaks volumes. I felt bad for J. Lo.

So I read that JLo article yesterday, and I started to think about the timeline (as I am want to do). And okay, so they meet in 2002 (making Gigli, I assume). They get engaged Nov. 2002. They called off the engagement in Jan. 2004 and in June 2004, Ben marries a 4-month pregnant Jen Garner. So the "Dinner for Five" with Jon Favereau ran Jan. 2003 (as we all saw Garner making love-eyes at him).
I have to wonder if he overlapped JLo with Garner (and impregnated her) and that put the kibosh on Bennifer 1. Or is this common knowledge that I'm only now putting together?

It's possible, or it's also possible that he met up with Jen Garner again shortly before breaking up with J.Lo, recognized she had the hots for him and decided to look her up since he was already planning on ending things with J.Lo and didn't want to be single long.

I'm embarrassed that I know this off the top of my head, but Bennifer 2.0 were married in June 2005 and their daughter was born in December of that year.

Ben was single for a while between Jennifers. He dated a "regular girl" for about 5 minutes, and she and her roommate then spent months selling uncomplimentary stories about him to the tabloids. It was during that time Ben got photographed in front of his house looking like he had the flu, in his boxer shorts, with his balls hanging out. The memories still bring a smile to my face.

Good times, Ginger. I'm not even ashamed that I know all this, so here's the timeline:
* Late 2001 - Ben and J.Lo begin filming Gigli * Spring 2002 - Ben shows up to some event/launch of J.Lo's, while she's still married to Cris Judd, and presents flowers to her on the red carpet. J.Lo and Cris split up pretty soon after * Summer 2002 - Bennifer 1.0 is publicly rolled out * Autumn 2002 - they get engaged * Summer 2003 - strippers in Vancouver scandal * September 2003 - the wedding is called off, a couple of days before it was due to take place * January 2004 - they officially split, and there are rumours just days later that J.Lo is with Marc Anthony (which she's now confirmed) * Jan - Summer 2004 - Ben looked a total mess, as per Ginger's description, and was sleeping on random people's sofas, leaving "back hair" behind him * June 2004 - J.Lo marries Marc Anthony * Autumn 2004 - Ben started to be seen with Jennifer Garner * April 2005 - Bennifer 2.0 are engaged * June 2005 - Bennifer 2.0 are married * December 2005 - Violet Affleck is born
