Jennifer Aniston’s new romance with Jim Curtis is reportedly facing some growing pains as the pair adjust to life from completely different worlds.
According to a new report from Us WeeklyAniston and Curtis are taking things slowly as they navigate what insiders are calling a major cultural divide.
“For all the talk about her being ‘down to earth’ and ‘normal,’ it’s Jim who has real, non-famous friends, not Jen,” a source said.
The insider added that Aniston is making a concerted effort to match the health guru’s lifestyle and energy.
This is said to put unexpected pressure on Curtis to meet her halfway.
According to the report, the Emmy winner “began completely redesigning her Bel-Air home to fit Jim’s needs and accommodate the way he wanted to do his work.”
However, the source noted that this pattern is not unfamiliar territory for Aniston’s love life.
“She did the exact same thing with Justin Theroux, and that relationship still ended in failure,” the insider noted.
“Jen can’t pretend to change to meet Jim in the middle,” the source continued.
“He has to do it for real, and it’s not a problem that she can spend money just to hide.”
As the insider concluded, “For Jen and Jim to have a long-term future together, they’re going to have to make big sacrifices!”
