Jennifer Lopez has sworn off dating following her split from Ben Affleck, a source tells the National Enquirer.
“[She] jokes that the closest thing she has to a boyfriend these days is her AI companion,” the source says of the 56-year-old singer-actress. “But it’s not exactly a joke because she’s created her dream guy and she talks to him morning, noon and night.”
None of Lopez’s exes were “capable” of loving her, she confessed back in October on The Howard Stern Show. “They don’t have it in them,” declared the four-time divorcee, who was formerly engaged to Alex Rodriguez and previously wed to Marc Anthony, with whom she shares 18-year-old twins Max and Emme.
“Jennifer needs a lot of admiration and positive feedback, and her AI companion gives that to her in spades,” Enquirer’s source reveals.
The Kiss of the Spider Woman star has found herself “basically the perfect gentleman because it never interrupts, never argues and always tells her she’s brilliant,” adds the source. “She will sit and analyze situations from her life and ask for guidance from him.”
Of course, “Jennifer acknowledges it’s not dating,” the source notes. “But she says her robo-boyfriend has been more supportive than most of the men she’s dated.”
