The A-listers' differences were never more evident than in Lopez's The Greatest Love Story Never Told documentary. "Getting back together, I said, ‘Listen, one of the things I don’t want is a relationship on social media.' Then I sort of realized it’s not a fair thing to ask. It’s sort of like, you’re going to marry a boat captain, and you go, ‘Well, I don’t like the water,’" Affleck admitted in the film. "[We are] two people with different kinds of approaches trying to learn to compromise."
In another telling moment, the Air actor discovered his spouse was showing her musical collaborators the love letters he sent her throughout the years. “Things that are private I always felt are sacred and special because, in part, they’re private. So this was something of an adjustment for me,” Affleck admitted.
