Charlize Theron Glamour Magazine July 2008

 

Charlize Theron is the cover girl for the July issue of Glamour Magazine.  In the interview she revealed that she still has no plans of ever getting married to her long-term boyfriend Stuart Townsend and that flirting with others adds spice to life.

“Even when I was a little girl I never dreamed of the white dress and all of that.  I want to be clear: I am not judgmental about marriage.  I am judgmental about how our government doesn’t want to see the reality of gay and lesbian marriages.”

“I think if you are in a one or two-year relationship, love is enough. You can thrive on that.  When you hit years three and four, you realise that if you’re going to live with somebody … you have to be nurtured emotionally and spiritually, and you have to be intrigued. Because if that intrigue runs out, you’re not going to want to go home anymore.”

And Charlize adds that being serious in a relationship does not mean that one loses their freedom to express.  Letting each other flirt and develop crushes on other members of the opposite sex, adds spice to life.

“I’ve always said that I worry about being with a man who doesn’t flirt. I love that Stuart can watch tennis and tell me that he’s got a crush on a tennis player. We’re not meant to just like one person. But (that) doesn’t mean you go and build a life with another person.”
