A very funny and not at all overdone joke: did I wake up in 2002? Because Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are back together and have not ruled out the possibility of getting engaged again. Will Tobey Maguire be the next Spider-Man?

But in 2021, "Love is dead!" and those who cried out "Love is dead!" were to learn of a new love: 17 years ago, a new optimism burst forth: as Lopez and Alex Rodriguez's relationship was falling apart, rumors of a Bennifer reunion began to circulate. The "Marry Me" star admitted to dating in a sultry Italian Instagram photo in July.

Since then, several insiders have hinted that the couple is very open to marriage. And now, another source tells "Entertainment Tonight" that the lovebirds are "open to the possibility of engagement and marriage." [Ben and Jen are very much in love. Their loved ones will not be surprised if Ben pops the question. Of course, as they consider moving forward in their relationship, they will be mindful of their children. They want things to be great not only between the two of them, but between their children as well."

According to insiders, everything has been smooth sailing so far, not only for Lopez and Affleck's romantic relationship, but also for their respective children (Lopez has two children with Marc Anthony and Affleck has three children with Jennifer Garner) He says.

"They really trust each other, which is very important to both of them," the source continued. They also have a lot in common in terms of their careers and both have children with their former partners, so they understand each other's lives and family dynamics."

"Ben's kids really like Jen and her kids love Ben. Ben's kids really like Jen and her kids love Ben. He goes with the flow; both kids love each other, which is very gratifying and a blessing.

Their relationship is "like a fairy tale between them and it's meant to be," the source explains. 'She loves him beyond belief. Ben is so funny and confident. He is always telling Jen she can do anything. He's not scared or intimidated by her money or her success."

And that's not all! Apparently, the exes are making life easier for Affleck and Lopez. Garner said, "I have a good relationship with myself and Ben. She is happy for him." She's happy that Ben is healthy and thinks he's a really good father."

As for Lopez and Anthony, "We talk a lot. He is very understanding and loves her as a person. He is always there for her. They are really great friends and co-parents. He wants her to be happy."

Things are a bit more complicated between Lopez and Rodriguez, but you can't please everyone.
