Aging never looked so sweet!

Jennifer Aniston covers the December/January issue of Harper’s Bazaar, and the actress was uncharacteristically candid about aging, her reputation, her career, and her romance with fiancé Justin Theroux.

On what she loves about Justin:

    "He's one of the most humble, decent human beings. He's not an a**. He's not like some of our friends who are young and up-and-coming and they hit celebrity, and all of a sudden you're like, 'Oh! You're different. Now you don't say hi to people? It's almost impossible to get bored with one another. We've tried so hard! And even that's interesting because his eyes are so pretty, but we can entertain ourselves and talk about endless things, which is pretty great."


On learning to love herself:

    "The past wasn't 'less than.' It was extremely important to my growth as a woman. But if you take the law of attraction, if you only love yourself 70 percent, that's what's going to come back to you. So you fill up that 30 percent, then all of a sudden there's this pure, good love standing right in front of you. Then you realize, 'Oh, this can be easy! It doesn't have to be so hard'."


On being content with aging:

    "I've had more fun post-40 than I can remember. From a work point of view, a physical point of view, a psychotherapeutic point of view.When am I supposed to freak out? When am I supposed to feel like, 'Oh, my knee! Oh, ouch!' I don’t feel any of those things!"


On balancing her career and personal life:

    "I don't live to work; I really do work to live. I love my home, I love my dogs, I love my friends, I love the simplicity of watching a sunset. There are moments when you have to stop and pinch yourself and go, 'I'm here. I did something good.'"


No more Poor Jen!
