Sandra Bullock Had Kind Words For Her Ex-Boyfriends
Sandra Bullock is no stranger to falling in love on the sets of her films. The Oscar winner has been romantically involved with a few A-list co-stars during her career. One of them was Matthew McConaughey whom she dated briefly during their collaboration in the film A Time to Kill. Although the relationship ended, Bullock had kind words to say about her memories with the Dallas Buyers Club star with whom she still shares a rapport.
“It’s the work we both put in. There’s a great amount of respect and love. I feel very cared for by Matthew. No matter where he is in his life or where I am in mine—he could be married—I know we would stay close,”
Sandra Bullock also once dated Ryan Gosling when the two celebrities connected on the sets of Murder By Numbers. The Proposal actor revealed that it was very easy to fall in love on set as it involved two actors who are brought together to spend a significant amount of time to create chemistry on screen, which could also translate into an off-screen attraction.
“On-Set Romance is Unnatural,” Said Sandra Bullock
Despite not sharing bitter breakups with her exes who were also her co-actors, Sandra Bullock explained the difficulties and complications of falling in love on the sets of films. To avoid any uncomfortable or unnatural situations that would arise as a result, the actor opted to carve certain rules and regulations for herself on set.
“I give it two weeks and just observe the person. In the beginning, you’re going, ‘Oh, he’s so sweet, and he’s so attentive, and he’s so great’. After two weeks, it’s like, ‘Oh, he does this just like everyone else I know’. It gives you a new perspective.”
Bullock also expressed her opinion on the reasons behind a successful relationship. The star stated that a couple could be idealistically very different but if their core moral values coincided, then the chances of their relationship lasting the distance were very high.
