When Jennifer Aniston takes on a character for a movie, she doesn't just act the part and then get over it — she says she learns something from every role. Maybe that's how she's been able to keep up relationships with her exes, as she admitted she believes that staying friends after a split is definitely possible. Jen dished to reporters today at a press junket for The Switch.

"I've learned something from Kassie and every character I've played," she says of her role in her newest flick, The Switch, co-starring Jason Bateman. "Especially, in this case, the women in my life I've known who have gone through the struggles and heartbreak frustrations of fertility, adoption, and all of that.
