Jennifer Aniston is America’s sweetheart. Fans have loved her ever since she burst into Hollywood with her role as Rachel Green on the iconic television show Friends. The actress quickly became a beauty and fashion icon. She also made headlines with her romantic relationships, including her first marriage to Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt. Since Aniston and Pitt’s highly-publicized divorce, the actress’ love life has continued to be a hot topic of conversation. Now, sources claim that Aniston is haunted by the memory of her romance with her former boyfriend, John Mayer.
Although Aniston has been involved with other famous men such as Vince Vaughn and Justin Theroux, she’s reportedly never gotten over Mayer. An insider tells Life and Style that the actress longs for a romance that makes her feel like she did while dating the musician. Not only did Aniston not have to compete with Mayer as they worked in different areas of the entertainment industry, but he was also allegedly very attentive toward her.
John Mayer was said to have “spoiled” Jennifer Aniston with “endless, laser-like attention.” The source even claims that her relationship with Mayer may have caused issues in her second marriage to Theroux.
“Jen’s affair with John was completely different than all of her past relationships, which were pretty much all with actors of varying levels of fame,” the informant dished. “That meant that even with Brad Pitt, there was an aspect of competition in play between the two of them.”
“That kind of thing was never the case with Mayer – when he and Jen had their thing, he was totally focused on making her happy, and meeting her needs,” the source continued. “With Mayer, there was no distraction around where he sat on the Hollywood pecking order. He even went to the Oscars with Jen and did it with a perfectly modest smile on his face!”
The insider claimed that Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer’s bond was very deep and that her friends think that she’s been “chasing that feeling” since the couple’s split back in 2009. Recently, Aniston is said to be using the celebrity dating app Raya to try to find love again. However, some fans may be hoping for a reunion with Mayer.
For his part, John Mayer has also been open about his great love for Jennifer Aniston. In 2010, he admitted that he would “always be sorry” that the relationship didn’t last.” He also added that he wished he could still be with the actress. However, it just wasn’t meant to be at the time.
