When Nikki asked if that was ‘hard,’ JLo responded, ‘Yeah, it’s fucking hard!’
And she feels sad.
“It feels alone, unknown, scary. He feels sad. “It feels desperate,” the Can’t Get Enough singer said.
“But when you sit in those feelings and say, ‘These things aren’t going to kill me,’ it’s like I’m actually capable of feeling joy and happiness for myself. Being in a relationship doesn’t define me. I can’t look for happiness.” in other people. I have to have happiness inside me. I used to say I’m a happy person, but I was still looking for something that someone else could fill, and it was like, “No, I’m actually good.”
When he addressed his “lessons,” he said it’s a “lifelong process.”
“I think that’s what I love about life, that there’s no end point,” the Bronx beauty said.
‘You can only improve and grow if you want to. It’s growing or dying, and I don’t want to do the death part.
‘And yes, there are times when I thought I had it figured out, and then life tells me, “We’ll send you something else and see if you fall for it.” Let’s see if you’ve really learned that lesson.” And he hadn’t.
“Now I understand it in a much deeper way, which doesn’t mean I won’t make mistakes in the future, but again, when your whole house blows up, you’re left standing there in the rubble saying, ‘How can I do it?'” Will I never let that happen again?

Seen with Ben when they were engaged in 2003.
“And then you start to examine it little by little and say, ‘Okay, I did this, this was my part, this is what I should have seen from the beginning, this is what I didn’t look at.’ Those things are what really are the lessons.’
On the other hand, without naming the end of her marriage to Affleck, she said she didn’t learn her lesson.
‘The job is to discover yourself. “It’s looking back at the underlying feelings and belief systems we have about ourselves that cause us to make certain decisions and create certain patterns in our lives,” he said.
“And then when you get to a point where you think you’ve learned your lesson, and then it blows up in your face again, you realize, ‘Okay, I haven’t learned it, so what do I need?’ learn?”. look right now? I would say never stop looking inward, because it is very easy to blame others.’
He said he was happy in Toronto while promoting Ben’s movie Unstoppable. ‘I felt very good. The movie is really beautiful. You do these things and then you forget about them, because they’re in the can for a long time, you moved on to other projects and I took some time off, so I haven’t been in that mindset.
Lopez then said her flaws should be loved too while addressing “limits.”
‘Someone who truly loves you will help you heal those parts of yourself. That’s what I’ve learned about love, that it’s a sure thing. You make me feel safe, and when I fail to achieve glory, you understand me and help me grow to be better, because you have your limits and I have mine.’

‘I felt very good. The movie is really beautiful. You do these things and then you forget about them, because they’re in the can for a long time, you moved on to other projects and I took some time off, so I haven’t had that mentality.
‘I made the movie because it was a very inspiring story and it was a Latin story. It’s about Anthony Robles, a wrestler who was born with one leg and how he defied the odds in his sport. I play his mother, who had him when she was 16.”
And he saw the movie at TIFF.
“I got to see it all done for the first time with an audience in Toronto, and people loved it and really responded to the emotion of the film. It’s one of those great inspirational stories that I think the world needs right now.”
