In a recent conversation with the Wall Street Journal, Aniston reflected on how her late parents’ Nancy Dow and John Aniston’s relationship has affected the way she dates.<\/p>\n
‘It was always a little bit difficult for me in relationships, I think, because I really was kind of alone,’ she admitted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘My parents, watching my family\u2019s relationship, didn\u2019t make me kind of go, “Oh, I can\u2019t wait to do that,”‘ she said of her mom and dad, who divorced when she was a little girl.<\/p>\n
The movie star revealed, ‘I didn\u2019t like the idea of sacrificing who you were or what you needed, so I didn\u2019t really know how to do that.\u00a0So it was almost easier to just be kind of solo. So I didn\u2019t have any real training in that give-and-take.’<\/p>\n
Jennifer went on to say: ‘It\u2019s just about not being afraid to say what you need and what you want. And it\u2019s still a challenge for me in a relationship.’<\/p>\n
