Of course he did. It couldn't possibly be a reflection on him, it's always those evil witches women.

[–]questionsaboutrel521FDS Apprentice 156 points157 points158 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It was definitely her fault he went to rehab for the first time three years before they started dating. He must have known that 10+ years later he would be married to a woman and unhappy. Good thing he got out of there before being destroyed from being “trapped.”

People blame Brad Pitt’s drinking problem on Angelina even though he’s been drinking everyday since college.

I remember when he said his marriage to Jennifer Aniston was so boring he smoked pot everyday.

It’s insane how he can do no wrong in societies eyes. He even dated his underage costar back in the day.

Of course it’s the woman! It’s ALWAYS the woman 🙄.

[–]alphasquishFDS Newbie[S] 280 points281 points282 points 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

They have children together that are old enough to peruse People and read this tripe - why the fuck would you go discuss this aspect of your personal business years later? Ben Affleck has always struck me as being a complete douchebag as a significant other, but he’s also quite obviously a LV parent as well. Just an all-around scrote in every department.

[–]herbivorouscarnivoreFDS Newbie 131 points132 points133 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

They have children old enough to encounter classmates: “I heard your mom is such a b*tch that she made your dad an alcoholic!”

Way to go, Ben. 🙄

[–]2340000FDS Apprentice 33 points34 points35 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Ben Affleck has literally no appeal whatsoever.

He's a POS to his ex-wife yet Hollywood loves him.

[–][deleted] 194 points195 points196 points 4 years ago* (6 children) | Copy Link

The absolute audacity.

No man who truly loves & values his children, and the mother of his children would say this publicly, even if it’s what he believes is true.

And no addict is even close to recovery if they still want to blame others for their addiction.

[–]KindredMaximusFDS Newbie 87 points88 points89 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

He'll definitely start drinking again. JLO is heading for another fall with this NVM

[–]GlitteryMossFDS Newbie 33 points34 points35 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Yes I wonder why López is with him. He is yuck.

No amount of money can get rid of internalized misogyny

[–]herbivorouscarnivoreFDS Newbie 127 points128 points129 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Did Garner also drive him to bang the nanny?

He is a walking mess. He blames his alcoholism on the mother of his children. He’s a cheater. He introduced his kids to JLo as soon as they got together. Trashy trash trash.

[–]Jandi18FDS Newbie 67 points68 points69 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yes and him, his ex wife and J-Lo went trick and treat with her kids and his. This is just awful! No way I’m doing any of these with my ex and his new lover. Both women need FDS.

[–]AnniaTFDS Disciple 36 points37 points38 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The amount of LVM JLo has been associated with, she needs a FDS intervention ASAP. It proves that you can be beautiful, rich and famous and if you're a pick me and can't vet men properly you're also going to be subjected to LV scrotes. And even if these LVM are rich and successful in Hollywood, they're still LVM/NVM.

[–]whiskey_and_oreosFDS Apprentice 124 points125 points126 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

NVM need to get their collective two brain cells together and come up with a better excuse than drinking. Of course things didn't work out when they'd rather commit to drinking for multiple hours each night before passing out on the couch and being hungover the next day. The amount of time they're cognitively unavailable for any discussion or housework or childcare due to being drunk or passed out is literally a part time job and it's even more emotional labor on the other partner to work around an alcoholic.

[–]PicoPicoMioFDS Newbie 252 points253 points254 points 4 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

He was trapped? More like SHE was trapped with an alcoholic gambling addict and serial cheater who had the audacity to fuck the kids’ pickme nanny!

[–]sleutherinoFDS Newbie 158 points159 points160 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Somehow, no matter how awful they are, they always find a way to make themselves helpless, blameless innocents when they spin the story to everyone else.

They will literally abuse, cheat, and flush ya'lls life savings down the drain, and then tell everyone it was ultimately your fault because XYZ.

X = "She didn't give me enough sex, men have needs. There's no telling what we might do when we don't have consistent access to a woman's body"

Y = "She became frigid, bitter, and cold out of nowhere. All I did was drain our savings trying to make us rich! I'm just trying to provide for my family, talk about ungrateful"

Z = "She kept nagging me to do this and that, I just couldn't take it anymore! It forced me drink so I wouldn't go insane with her around. She's like obsessed with garbage not being on the floor. Some people are just so crazy picky about this stuff"

omg the nanny!!!! i was OBSESSED with that story. the best was when she upgraded to a lexus with ben’s hush money and was posing for the paps in it. what a scene.

[–]PicoPicoMioFDS Newbie 23 points24 points25 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I’m laughing so hard, that is super tacky. I feel bad for his kids. They’re going to have a wild time once they google their dad and the divorce saga.

[–]pinkgirly111FDS Newbie 28 points29 points30 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

it was wild! she was running around hollywood with new manis and new cars like she was a STAR. 🤦🏼‍♀️ THEN a pic surfaced of her on a private plane, wearing all of tom brady’s super bowl rings! once gisele was involved she was shut down quickly lol. wonder what she’s up to now.

no matter what the guy tells you, i could never act like that, especially to jen garner?? like, tf???

[–]Shot_Presence_8382FDS Newbie 16 points17 points18 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Right!!! I was thinking, if he felt his marriage and life together were "so bad" and he felt "trapped," imagine how poor Jennifer Garner feels being married to this NV piece of shit, drinking and passing out in front of the kids, while she raises three kids alone basically. Ben is too drunk and disconnected to his family to help out or be there in a meaningful way...those poor kids and Jennifer Garner 🥺 they deserved better.

[–]PicoPicoMioFDS Newbie 13 points14 points15 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

He chose a grounded wholesome woman in Hollywood to have a family with and got bored basically.

[–]DivineGoddess1111111FDS Newbie 174 points175 points176 points 4 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

JLo has the worst taste in men.

Affleck still looks like he's drinking to me. He has that bloated waxy skinned alcoholic face. Rank.

Of course the cheating POS blamed his wife for the divorce. It couldn't possibly be sticking his dick in the kids nanny.

[–]alphasquishFDS Newbie[S] 51 points52 points53 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I see a lot of men in their late 40s+ like this. Their heads get fucking huge. Like literally physically large. It’s gross!

[–]DivineGoddess1111111FDS Newbie 39 points40 points41 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I briefly downloaded Bumble recently and my eyeballs felt assaulted by all the bloated, fat, unwashed, hairy and very, very short over 40 men. Deleted it soon after. If that's what's available, hard pass.

[–]katiekat0214FDS Newbie 71 points72 points73 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

I think so too. "Bloated waxy skinned alcoholic face". Once you know what long-term drinking looks like, you can't unsee it.

[–]DivineGoddess1111111FDS Newbie 55 points56 points57 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I encounter many of them at work and I was married to one. I recognise those dead eyes.

[–]fckingmiraclesFDS Newbie 18 points19 points20 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Their lower eyelids also start to droop.

The alcoholics I know are all gray beyond their, mouthbreathers and with droopy eyes.

[–]subgirlygirlFDS Newbie 15 points16 points17 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Didn't Poof Smarmy literally have her dodging bullets at one point? I swear I remember something about that.

[–]DivineGoddess1111111FDS Newbie 11 points12 points13 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yes, some gang shoot out. She has worse taste in men than me and that's saying something.

[–]onceuponaseaFDS Newbie 66 points67 points68 points 4 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

He’s gross

[–]alphasquishFDS Newbie[S] 42 points43 points44 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

He is, the first time I saw him, which was in Good Will Hunting, he sleeved me out. I was like, is he…acting? I think this is actually how this dude is in the real world.

[–]notallowed2havepizzaFDS Newbie 46 points47 points48 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Also, him acting in Gone Girl seems real too. NVM roles are where he shines the most.

[–]CoffeeAndCorpsesFDS Newbie 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yup. See his role in "Mallrats" for example.

[–]FUBARfromLSAFDS Newbie 35 points36 points37 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Me ex boyfriend’s sister dated him before Good Will Hunting- can confirm.

[–]aenema46n2FDS Newbie 51 points52 points53 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Disgusting to talk this way publicly about the mother of his children. He's always been a douchebag so sadly, not surprised. Still has the most hideous back tattoo I've ever seen🤮

[–]alphasquishFDS Newbie[S] 23 points24 points25 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

This is actually my biggest point of contention and the most LV aspect in my opinion. Those poor kids. I don’t recall a back tattoo, but I’ve probably blocked it out. Like Gigli.

[–]radical__daphneRuthless Strategist 45 points46 points47 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I heard his little whine fest and he was clearly drunk when he gave it even though he claimed he had stopped drinking. He said respect was always the basis of their relationship and he talked about how much he cared about the kids. And yet he goes public for no reason to blame Jennifer Garner 1for his drinking problem, which is his own damn fault and choice, and I can't imagine how the kids feel right now. What a DICK! Plus he was already known to have a drinking problem when he was with Jennifer Lopez.

[–]alphasquishFDS Newbie[S] 19 points20 points21 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Agree, he’s a total dick.

[–]onceuponaseaFDS Newbie 40 points41 points42 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

How is JLO dating him? It’s beyond me.

[–]alphasquishFDS Newbie[S] 44 points45 points46 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

J Lo has made some questionable choices. As u/pinkblair99 said…she needs FDS.

[–]Noemie_MathildeFDS Newbie 36 points37 points38 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Casting him as the LVM in Gone Girl gave that movie so much more resonance.

[–]PicoPicoMioFDS Newbie 24 points25 points26 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yes! I couldn’t help but think they nailed the casting for it. Turns out he was just playing himself.

I’d like to take this moment to post the following photo where we can spot Jennifer Garner being totally over Ben’s bullshit and driving him to rehab WELL after they had already decided to divorce and WELL after he started living on his own, free of the “trap” that was his marriage:

Didn’t Affleck have addiction issues before he even met Garner?

oh yes.

[–]shoesfromparis135FDS Apprentice 19 points20 points21 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

JLo needs to stop living in the past and find herself a new man. Wishing her the best as she is fabulous and deserves so much better.

[–]HostileovariesFDS Apprentice 19 points20 points21 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Totally has nothing to with the fact that alcoholism and addiction run in Ben's family and was a problematic drinker when he was 15. It was totally Gardner's fault when he was drunk in public in 2019 (a full 4 years after they announced their intentions to separate and 1 year after their divorce).

[–]thinktwiceorelseFDS Newbie 13 points14 points15 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Wasn't it her who filled for divorce?

Ben Affleck is 2021’s biggest joke at this point.

[–]sleeplessbeauty101 8 points9 points10 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Did she make you drunk in a strip club and cause you to cheat on J.Lo? Ohhh wait that was BEFORE you met Jennifer Garner. You piece of shit. And you made a joke about you cheating in a movie. Top tier scrote.

[–]Unlikely-MarzipanRuthless Strategist 7 points8 points9 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Ew. I didn’t know about that. I really wish JLo didn’t get back with him. He’s just gone back to her because she’ll settle for his shit because no one else will. Well, I mean he can get some young naive girl who’s money and fame hungry - but JLo will pull his weight in terms of keeping him relevant, probably paying for things, and being that “strong woman” to keep him in line… except she won’t because he will just go behind her back again.

[–]thediverswifeFDS Newbie 8 points9 points10 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Did the interviewer push back on this? He was an alcoholic well before he met Jen Garner

[–]xfelugirlxFDS Newbie 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

LOL the audacity of the scrote. Sure she obligated you to drink all the time and don’t help around the house with the kids.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I’d bet a million dollars Ben has told Jennifer Lopez about his “crazy ex girlfriend” by now.

“Oh she hurt me so much!” sob
