Lopez made sure Affleck was happy in their marriage

A source quoted by the magazine claims, Lopez “did spend a lot of time making sure Ben was happy and had everything he needed." But it was his negativity that got her.

Her care for him was almost childlike even if Friends constantly reminded her that she’s not responsible for his feelings. He’s very moody and dark at times, but Jennifer appreciated life in another way and is very grateful for everything, People reported.

During the marriage former Hollywood couple spent their summer on opposite coasts with Lopez enjoying international vacations even as Affleck was busy with the shooting schedule.

Affleck “has never handled stress well," said a source close to his ex-wife told the outlet, Jennifer Garner, with whom he shares three kids. The source continued, “He doesn’t have good coping skills. He gets easily frustrated and tends to be moody. When he’s relaxed and in a good mood, it’s amazing to be around him. But more often, he’s upset or frustrated.”

The source explained that Affleck gets irritated with very small issues and does not comprehend how his bad affects those around him. The source said, “Many times, it’s just something small that he gets stuck on. He really doesn’t understand how his bad mood affects people around him. It’s just not fun being around that kind of negativity.”
