AceShowbiz - Dating apparently is not in Jennifer Garner's to-do list. Almost two and a half years after she and Ben Affleck split, the "Alias" actress reveals that she isn't looking for love, at least at the moment.
The mother of three revealed in an interview with news.com.au that she hasn't been dating since going separate ways with her ex-husband, with whom she was married to for almost a decade. "I would not have chosen this life for myself or for my kids," Jennifer, who's currently promoting her new flick "The Tribes of Palos Verdes", said.
"I would not choose to be single or be in this position. It's something that we are working through," the actress added.
The "13 Going on 30" star went on saying that she's not interested in dating. "People want to set me up and I am just like, 'No thank you!' " Jennifer explained.
When asked about the sexual misconduct scandals in Hollywood, Jennifer responded, "We can't lump all men into [the same category]." She went on saying, "We can't just assume that every man has done something awful or that every man is guilty: due process is important and has to take place."
Ben himself was also dragged into sexual harassment scandal after "One Tree Hill" star Hilarie Burton accused him of groping her in 2003 when she was a host of MTV's "TRL". "I don't remember it but I absolutely apologize for it," Ben said of the accusation on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert". "I certainly don't think she's lying or making it up. It's just the kind of thing we have to--as men, I think, as we become more aware of this--be really, really mindful of our behavior and hold ourselves accountable. And say, 'If I was ever part of the problem, I want to change and be part of the solution.' "
Jennifer and Ben announced their split in June 2015 and filed for divorce in April. Despite splitting, the former spouses remain close and are co-parenting their three children, Violet (12), Seraphina (8) and Samuel (5), together.
While Jennifer isn't into dating now, her estranged husband Ben is currently dating "Saturday Night Live" producer Lindsay Shookus.
