Jane Fonda says she's officially done with romantic relationships, unless just the right young man happens to come along.
In her new cover interview for Harper's Bazaar, the 83-year-old actress revealed, “I don’t want to be in a relationship, a sexual relationship, again. I don’t have that desire.” But while she may be putting her dating life on an indefinite hiatus, she added, “Do I fantasize? Yes…That I meet a professor or a researcher, somebody in that line who is really capable of loving, of cherishing a woman, so that I could test myself and see if I could show up. I think maybe now I could, but the problem is that, like a man, I would want a younger man. Isn’t that awful? It’s a thing about skin. I would want a younger man, and I’m too vain.”
Fonda went on to explain that after her three failed marriages to French director Roger Vadim, political activist Tom Hayden, and billionaire founder of CNN, Ted Turner, “What I’ve had to really think about is that I’m not really capable [of intimacy].” She continued, “It’s not them. It’s me. If a guy had come along and said, ‘Come on, Fonda, show up,’ I would have run away scared. I was attracted to men who never would have done that to me because they couldn’t necessarily show up themselves. I didn’t know that at the time, but now I know. I don’t think I can do anything about it now, but that’s the truth, as Lily [Tomlin] would say. That’s the truth.”
“Part of the reason I get into a relationship with a man is because I feel that he can take me down a new path,” she added in an attempt to explain her “chameleonic” nature. “I’m attracted to people who can teach me things and whose lives are different from mine, and so I give myself over to that. First of all, I want to please him. That’s a problem.” With Turner, she said, “Marrying Ted is like marrying 15 people—You have to learn how to hunt, so I did. You have to learn how to fly-fish, so I did. He liked me to dress sexy, so I did. And so forth. I wanted to. Why be with Ted Turner if you’re not going to allow yourself to be absorbed in his reality and learn from it? And I’m glad I did.”
