‘The View’s’ Whoopi Goldberg Collapses Onto Table During Chat About Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck
Ben Affleck is learning to put himself out there again.
Three months after the Oscar winner finalized his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, he shared how he found himself relating to his Accountant 2 character Christian Wolff.
“Here’s a guy who’s trying to figure out—he wants to have a relationship with a woman,” Affleck said in a recent interview clip shared by Page Six. “He’s trying to figure out how to do that, how to put yourself out there.”
“He’s not comfortable extending himself,” the 52-year-old continued of his character. “He doesn’t really know how to flirt, exactly. He’s not comfortable, like so many of us.”
And as Affleck—who shares kids Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 16, with ex Jennifer Garner—continues to navigate his single era, he admitted that there was a lot he had to relearn, especially when it came to reading signals in relationships.
“It’s not easy for anyone figuring out relationships,” the Good Will Hunting star noted, “particularly at the very early part, where you’re trying to gauge, ‘What does this signal mean? Is this person looking at me? Do they like me? Am I going to humiliate myself if I go over there?’”
