He shared, "When Jen and I broke up before, the catalyst for that was this massive amount of scrutiny around our private life." He admitted that he found it difficult to deal with the constant attention and was determined to set boundaries with the press. In contrast, he felt that Jennifer Lopez did not share the same urgency to keep their relationship private.
Affleck's comments provide insight into the challenges they faced as a high-profile couple.

This metaphor highlighted the inherent difficulties in maintaining privacy when one partner is a global superstar.
The "Justice League" star concluded by saying, "We're just two people with kind of different approaches trying to learn to compromise." He acknowledged that as a writer and director, he understood the importance of drawing inspiration from real life, and he respected that Jennifer’s art often reflected her personal experiences.
