Line up boys.
Jennifer Lopez is ready to move on after her recent split with boyfriend of two years
Casper Smart.
"I still believe in love," the 45-year-old told
Elle's UK magazine. "The nirvana man, he's out there somewhere. But you just have to work at it. You have to work at everything."
The singer, who has been married three times and engaged to both
Ben Affleck and
Sean 'P.Diddy' Combs, admitted she's made her fair share of relationship mistakes.
"Is it worth making mistakes?" she said. "In my case in public and
trying to figure out what you do and balance everything and constantly
grow?
"Everybody has seen that I make mistakes. I am not going to give up. I have to look at what I do wrong."
Proving she's still every bit the humble 'Jenny From the Block', the
single mum spoke openly to the mag about what those mistakes were.
"I rush in," she explained. "I get swept up, I ignore the signs. But so many of us are guilty of these things.
"Each time it goes wrong it's hard. I get really hurt but I have to
let myself go: 'What did I do? What can I learn?' And as hard and as
hurtful as things get, I want to believe I will be able to go one step
higher. I've got to hope that if I keep going I will eventually get it
right."
The star added that she has learnt a lot after calling it quits on her 10 year marriage to 45-year-old salsa singer
Marc Anthony nearly three years ago.
"When Marc and I first broke up," she said. "I did think: 'I wish I
could have held this together but when you realise it's not the right
thing for anybody, you think: 'Okay, well how do we make this work, how
do we make this better, how do we make this great for the children
anyway?'"
In the interview, in the October issue, JLo also opened up about the
difficulty of being a single mum to her and Marc's six-year-old twins
Emme and Max.
"It's not easy," she explained. "I'm from a traditional background. It takes two people to make a kid for a reason.
"It's tough because I know they feel the void of that male presence."
