Ben Affleck initiated the separation from Jennifer Lopez out of self-preservation concerns and a fear of self-destructing. Despite the public celebration of their reunion, Ben, 51, and Jennifer Lopez, 54, could not sustain their relationship, with Ben moving out for self-protection. Ben, a three-time rehab veteran, felt overwhelmed by the pressure, spotlight, and mismatch in values, especially regarding public displays of affection, leading to the decision to separate in order to avoid repeating past mistakes and protect both himself and J. Lo.
