“He’s Just Not That Into You” star Jennifer Connelly confesses she is outdated when it comes to the dating game and internet. Jennifer is happily married to actor Paul Bettany and cherishes honesty in their relationship.
Although Jennifer looks absolutely stunning in this Glamour photo shoot, she has been losing a lot of weight due to stress according to Paul. Here are some highlights from Jennifer Connelly’s Glamour interview:
On relationship deal breakers: “I have a thing about honesty; I think it’s crucial to a relationship. Otherwise, one person holds all the power. It’s healthy to be straight-forward, and it turns out you can wind up weathering a lot”
On honesty in her marriage: “Neither my husband [Paul Bettany] nor I are interested in being sneaky or mincing words. If I break something, for example, I have to announce it. I’m a compulsive confessor.”
On a bad blind date: “It was horrible! I went on a date with a guy who played his guitar for me and was so full of himself. We had plans to go out to a party, and he was driving and I remember saying, “You know what? I’m so sorry, but I’d like to go home please.” So I got out of the car and I left.”
On today’s dating rituals: “It’s been so long since I’ve dated that I don’t understand what’s going on anymore with things like Facebook and MySpace. A friend of mine wrote “LOL” to me the other day. I thought she meant “Lord, oh, Lord.””
The biggest surprise about being married: “It’s interesting watching certain fears I once had fall away. I used to have a hard time with physical separation: Whenever we were apart, I would find myself on edge and think this or that is going to happen…Now I feel safe and am able to relax.”
On how she knew Paul Bettany was The One: “I don’t know. It was something about the way that we were together. He stood out to me as someone singular and rare and beautiful, and I liked the way he was in the world…. I liked the way he was with my son and the way he made me feel.”
On being solo vs. being hitched: “I had enough time being single to know I have no regrets about being married!”
