The 34-year-old actress revealed that she is still affected by past relationships – including her 2008 divorce from Ryan Phillipe – but that she prefers not to dwell on the past.
She told Us Weekly, 'It definitely sometimes feels like a suit that I wish I could zip off. But I don't feel bad about any of the things I've gone through, whether it's divorce or break-ups or anything like that, because that's all part of the life journey, and I have those experiences just like anyone else.
'I have one of those incredible memories where I just erase painful things. Maybe that's really unhealthy, and I probably need to see a therapist. But I don't dwell. You just keep going forward.'
She added: 'Also, I have kids. What are you going to do? Are you going to teach them to be one of those people who keep looking in the rear-view mirror, or are you going to teach them to be one of those people who go, 'Tomorrow's another day'?'
