I don’t know why, but when I read this it cracked me up.  The bromance between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck may have slowed down a bit, but Matt Damon is taking measures to spend more time with his BFF and their families:

“Ben and I both feel we are through a 10-year phase of our lives when we were very focused on our careers,” but maybe we’ll slow down a little and do more stuff together, and have time with our families because that’s a wonderful kind of new facet to our lives.”

Could there be two hotter friends?  Matt Damon has three children (Alexia 10, Isabella, three, and 15-month-old Gia) with wife Luciana and Ben Affleck has two daughters (Violet, three, and 10-month-old Seraphina) with Jennifer Garner.

Ben has been directing more these days than acting, and it’s something Matt is considering doing:

“Directing is something I really want to do,” he told Britain’s Daily Telegraph newspaper. “But the parts I’m getting now and the directors and producers I’m working with are so great that I’m not in any hurry.”

The photo of Matt and Ben is from a poker tournament for charity earlier this year.  I chose it because Matt looks hot in his jeans.
