Scarlett and Colin's relationship is AMAZING. It was definitely the right time, I've never seen Scarlett THIS happy before! her exes weren't good for her, I can tell. I'm glad that she finally found the right person for her and little rose. Also the way she kept talking about baby cosmo in the interviews!! she really really loves her family. I feel like Colin was the one that actually loved her and supported her with the idea of her new skincare brand that she have been working on for the past 5 years!

She looked genuinely uncomfortable talking about Colin. She stuttered and tripped over her words to eventually come up with "cute". It sucks for Colin ultimately because he's clearly head over heels for her. But now that she was twice divorced and a single mom, suddenly the "timing" was right to "see him differently" as a safe choice to settle for. 👎

[@halkyles9507]

@@ryandeffley7652 Isn't that a little unfair? She previously wasn't available to see him in any way and, as far as we know, he never pursued her until she was divorced a second time. I don't think Scarlett has to settle for anyone.

[@ryandeffley7652]

@@halkyles9507 - Once again does it look like she is fully attracted with burning desire? She stumbled and stuttered to finally come up with "cute". SJ is a woman like everyone else. When a woman is approaching 40 as a single mom with two divorces under her belt, her options start to drop. **It's the same reason why Drew got stood up on the first date. She doesn't have the same draw as a 45 year old single mom with two kids. If you took Drew when she was 25, never married, and no kids, probably 90% of men would've showed to that date.

[@carlycoppi4769]

Timing is so true!! I love that! My husband and I would “talk” a little here and there like 4 years before we started saying didn’t last long at all and then he asked me out 4 years later and the rest is history 🥰🥰🥰

[@mgrsdgfsdafsdgrsdgfsdg6980]

Yah cause you were done getting DD by guys who wouldnt commit to you, so you went for the beta that you kept in your "orbit" because you hit the wall.

[@ryandeffley7652]

You and your husband barely spoke those four years and didn't know each other. So when he asked you out, there was mutual attraction and connection after. You weren't settling. With Scarlett I see it differently. Colin was a guy she was friends with for years who she had no attraction to. But suddenly after two divorces and being a single mom, she wanted a safe choice. So "timing" and "saw him differently" was code for settling. 👎 I ultimately feel bad for Colin. The guy is clearly head over heels in love with her. But she couldn't even express genuine physical attraction for him. She had to stutter and trip over her words to come up with "cute". LOL

That’s what happened with me. I met my (now ex) boyfriend, and we cared for each other deeply but the timing wasn’t right. He was such an amazing person and I continue to wonder what if but it didn’t work out in the moment and that’s life I guess

[@orlaw.8213]

How did you break up? I've experienced similar.

[@Traveler89_89]

I’ve met people that were great but I just wasn’t in the right space to be dating or even contemplating something serious. I think sometimes it’s hard cuz u have a lot of “what-if” moments after the fact where your wondering if you made the right choice or if you will meet someone again that you like. I think Scarlett explains it well and I like how she wasn’t afraid to just say the timing wasn’t right.

[@soll.m8497]

I totally get when she just said he was cute. At the time she loved another so she didn't see him as something else. Timing is really important and some of yall just don't get it. Sometimes you love someone deeply and genuinely but the time just isn't right and you have to let go so you both can grow as persons. And in the meantime you can cross pats with someone you've met before but you can conect with them on a different way. Idk like she said, its about getting the time right. She isn't "settling" for him. They just found each other again when the time was right... (BUT even if she was its none of yalls bussiness lmao)

It's funny how the fans of these two celebrities didn't realize what Scarlet implied. She felt uncomfortable when she was asked if she finds her husband to be attractive. She made a face as she called him *"cute"* as if grasping at straws. Then she switched to the whole *timing* excuse. The reality is, she friend-zoned her current husband when they first met then just decided to marry him a lot later since she's getting old and doesn't want to be alone. Colin is a consolation prize.

[@ellav1832]

do you think its difficult for her to get a man? i dont think its the getting old thing at all. maybe she is more mature and saw he a decent guy whereas before he was just another cute guy. also she never cheated on either of her ex husbands (Ryan Reynolds and then the french guy) so maybe she was a faithful person who can apreaciate good looking people without wanting to date them.
