"People Are Starting to Realize Who Ben Really Is." Jennifer Lopez Wants to Show the World Ben Affleck's "Dark Side"

"People Are Starting to Realize Who Ben Really Is." Jennifer Lopez Wants to Show the World Ben Affleck's "Dark Side"

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are apparently unable to resolve their marital problems and restore their relationship. According to a source for In Touch Weekly, 54-year-old Jennifer is glad that people are finally starting to understand that her 51-year-old husband is not as perfect as many thought.

As the source explains, "commitment issues" as well as irritability and lack of any effort to save the marriage were noticeable even during their public appearances.

"Everyone around J.Lo thinks it's unfair that she's the one being held responsible for this. Just look at Ben's behavior to see what kind of anger management issues he has," the source says.

"J.Lo is definitely thrilled that people are starting to get a glimpse of who Ben really is. Ben may be charming, but he also has a pretty pathetic side that Jennifer has tolerated most of the time when the cameras are off," the insider adds.

He said the more Jennifer worked to save the relationship, the more she realized that "she was the one doing all the work, constantly trying to cheer him up and make everything perfect for him."

"To be honest, she's much better off without him," the source added.

The couple had been on the verge of divorce for some time, but were trying to save their marriage (with the help of Affleck's ex-wife Jennifer Garner, who, according to insiders, was fed up). However, Page Six sources said yesterday that Lopez and Affleck's marriage "fell apart months ago." According to an insider close to the couple, they decided back in March that they could no longer be together. Fans of the singer noticed that she had lost a lot of weight recently and decided that this could be due to worries about problems in her marriage.
