Ben Affleck Has HAD IT With Being An Instagram Boyfriend
He said the Reindeer Games are OVER (get it?)
Well-done film tropes have a special place in my heart.
But one of my favourite tropes in movies is when the wife dies/goes missing, and they show all this candid footage where she’s frolicking on the beach with the wind in her hair, or laughing under the covers because—chile who knows, or painting walls in her spotless, paint-free overalls footloose and fancy free. She had a smile that lit up the room you know!
I don’t mind suspending my disbelief for dinosaurs at a theme park, or dogs playing basketball (both can happen in real life) but let’s be honest, WHO IS TAKING THESE VIDEOS??? Not a hetero husband, I know that much! So the photos of Ben Affleck and JLo in St. Barth’s that surfaced over New Year’s Eve only support that claim (also, he was in Gone Girl—red flag!)
The couple forwent an LA “nuevo año” as Jlo would say in broken Spanish, and rang in the new year in St. Barth’s, and I must say—one could think it was doomed from the start.
And now that I mention it—having two Leos in one relationship is INSANE! (I can say this because I’m a Gemini) And if you know anything about having a relationship with a Leo, friends or romantic—you’re know they’re insane and they always think they’re right, when 15 times out of 10 they’re wrong! Now, I want to be clear, I’m not against Leos. Some of my best friends are Leos! My barista is a Leo! But, when they come around, I do clutch my purse a lil tighter, that’s all Imma say. They’re crazy!
But when it comes to Ben putting on his photographer hat while taking photos of JLo shopping for jewellery while she picked through a slew of ugly necklaces, and earrings, he was frustrated! He said “more passion, more energy, more footwork! You’re a dancer!!!”

Ben said “That photo was so bad I wanna give you a zero, but that’s not possible, cause you’re my wife, so we’re gonna do a reshoot” — she is putting him through the RINGER! But if we’re being honest, can you even get a good photo in a mall????
The reshoot in question. He’s so confused.
He said “I have never in my life yelled at a girl like this—when I yell like this it’s because I love you”
Afterwards, he got himself a bevvie and the tension seemed to subside, for now! Also, what is the temperature? Why is he dressed for Autumn in New York and she dressed for summer shenanigans?
Anyway, this is how the pics turned out when she got her earrings. Happy New Year to them and their crazy relationship. I feel for the maid who has to change those hotel sheets!
I feel that he’s taking a massive deep re-centre-his-soul breath in that last pic.
Thank you for the generous offer MWM - have subscribed because I need more of you and this in my life. Happy new year!
