Gerard Butler may not be coming clean about his reported relationship with Jennifer Aniston, but the rugged Bounty Hunter star is opening up about his vices.
Butler tells Men's Journal:
- "One of my vices is, I’m too wrapped up in myself and not always in a good way. It’s not like I walk around going, ‘Hey, I’m amazing; I’m Gerry Butler!’ But I am too caught up in my own sh*t, good and bad. The whole banging-the-bottle-against-my-head thing that I did as a kid  it’s a metaphor for how I’ve loved to cause myself pain. I’ve spent a lot of time taking the path of most resistance instead of least. Maybe I have an important meeting. I don’t consciously turn up late, but I will find that I subconsciously create circumstances that’ll make me so late that on the way I’m going, ‘Why would you do this? This is so f*cked!’ And by the time you’re in the meeting, you’re in negative land and you have to try to fight yourself into positive land. I’m always battling that.â€Â
Sorry Jen! Your co-star and secret BF also reveals that he's got some issues to resolve upstairs before getting hitched:
- "Do I spend a lot of time in my own head judging myself? Absolutely. Have I ever thought I was a fraud? Maybe 18 hours a day. Do I spend more time damning myself than promoting myself? Absolutely. In the last five years since coming out here, I’ve had two relationships. I’m not a big relationship guy."
Will Gerry ever settle down...
