Jennifer
Garner: "I Had Unrealistic Romantic Expectations" 3/13/07
Actress Jennifer Garner has blamed her "unrealistic
expectations" of romance on her split from first husband Scott Foley.
The Daredevil star, whose three year marriage to Foley ended in 2003,
admits she was upset when she realized he wasn't her 'knight in shining armor'
- but believes the experience has helped change her outlook on love for
the better.
She says, "I had 'white knight syndrome' - I'd get so disappointed
when I realized somebody was human. And I don't come without baggage. It's
learning to accept that human quality that helps you really love someone
in a different way.
"Any break-up changes your views on romance. I saw a lot of things
I needed to work on. It's too bad you can't have that epiphany when you're
in the middle of it."
