Jennifer Aniston longs to be a mother.

The 'Marley And Me' actress - who has had a string of failed relationships - loves children and is disappointed her life hasn't turned out quite the way she planned.

Jennifer - who is divorced from Brad Pitt and previously dated stars including Vince Vaughn, John Mayer and Bradley Cooper - insists she isn't looking for 'Mr. Right' just a man who loves and respects her.

She added: "I don't think there is such thing as a perfect relationship. It is unrealistic and hoping for too much. I don't think it is worth all that pressure."

The 40-year-old actress is believed to have recently rekindled her romance with her 'The Bounty' co-star Gerard Butler.
