Over the weekend, John Mayer tried to clear the air and squash the never ending rumors surrounding his breakup with Jennifer Aniston. Of course, we've heard every reason in the book for why they split, but according to Mayer himself, "There's no lying, there's no cheating. There's no nothing..." In an effort to stand up for her, in my opinion, he also gave her a backhanded compliment when saying, "But it's about time that somebody stands up for that girl and I think she's great."
It's no secret that Jen hasn't been lucky in love these days, and though it was a sweet gesture to defend his ex, do you think John said too much? It sounded like a big pity party to me, but what do you think? If you were in her shoes, would you be thankful or angry by his message to the fans?

she is so prety and seems so down to earth...I wonder why all the guys break up with her? Is she a secret crazie or somehting?
1he seems like a douche...a devilishly good looking douche, but a douche nonetheless
2You should put up the rest of the statement, it's hard to get an idea of what he's saying from that. Essentially he just said that he wasn't feeling it for the long term and that it's better to just break up than to stay just for the hell of it, and I think that's admirable. How many times have we given the same advice here?
He goes on to say more positive things about her, that she is beautiful and sophisticated and etc...
Not that I particularly care much about them, I just felt like the quotes don't portray him very fairly.
3John needs to shut his face. He always says too much. Like I said, anyone ever hear of a summer fling?
4Now, Jennifer Aniston's friends are saying she broke up with HIM, and she was tired of treating him. Either way, he's an attention wh*re. He had nothing to clear up. Paparazzi only follow him around because he begs them to. He may have sung her praises, but he was only trying to make himself look good by mentioning over and over again how he broke up with her. That was so unnecessary!
5Dude really likes attention, eh?
I'm sure she isn't surprised by this, and if I was her, I'd just be grateful he only said nice things. But I also wouldn't be shocked if he ended up blogging a lot more nastily a few weeks down the line, for some more attention.
6you know how they have Do, Dump or Marry???
John Mayer is on the Dump list for me...he's not even worth the condoms.
I never thought he was hot...i was like WTF when Jessica Simpson was with him. Not because they were from different genres, but because she was too pretty for him.
that's when people started thinking he was hot. his stock went up thanks to jessica, now everyone makes it like Jennifer should be jumping off the cliff because they are no longer together...
they probably were just screwing for the past few months, and the questions of "where is this going" came up, and he bolted.
if Jennifer was a 21 year old he would've probably played around for a bit. But with a late-30-something year old, you can't play the same type of games.
it don't matter who or why they broke up. it's just funny how he's speaking publicly about it.

He's soooo annoying. 
8Yuck, he's a total douche and I'm glad Jen isn't with him anymore.
9He should have kept his mouth shut.
10i can't stand him. jen is too good for him anyway-- i never could believe she actually lowered her standards so much
11I think he is so FOS.
But then again, I think there is something off with Jen behind the scenes too, yeah. SOMETHING has to drive all the men away.
All in all I knew this wouldnt last. I'm surprised it lasted this long
12uh, Jessica and a desperate famewh*re who'll cling to whoever just to get on people magazine. She was with John for 2 seconds when she went to the latter to say that she was in love with him.
13i agree, my first impression was that his statement made ppl almost feel sorry for her, and it would have been better left unsaid. i think the problem with jen might be her always going for younger guys who are better looking than her. she lasted longer with vince and brad who are closer to her age, so... maybe she just is not interested in settling down though~its her life
14He should keep his mouth shut. What a douche.
15He is SOOOO predictable. He's always right there publicly talking about a breakup. He's a total loser, and her getting involved with him was like a clock ticking before it ended. She's better off without him.
16Am I the only one that doesn't care who dumped who?
17Please...he is a media wh*re..and so is she...
18it's so classless to go around talking publicly about a breakup afterwards. it doesn't matter who dumped whom, it's just obnoxious.
19i think she should be able to find love, she seems fine to me...although i didn't think they'd last. its funny, just last week/this week i was reading the aussie tabloids and they all told us about their "big wedding plans" but i was always sceptical...anyway, i don't think it needed to be said.
20she's absolutely not a media wh*re. she shys away from the media all the time.
21I agree with runnergeek. Just because the media stalks her and makes speculations doesn't mean she has any power to stop that. She has yet to release a statement about her personal life, and she hasn't even given in an interview in a while. She's definitely one of the shyest (In terms of embracing media attention) celebrities out there.
22I don't think Jen Aniston needs sticking up for.
I think he should basically shut his trap.
23I think they both need a class in "class" ..don't kiss and tell.....
24I agree -- I think he should have been discrete. Why is he putting his personal life on a public stage?? Don't kiss and tell.
25He's not a nice guy I think he used to be when he was younger but the last few years since he got famous he's kinda trying to become this playboy. First of all they only dated 3 months and they were all over each other up until a week ago! What could possibly be so definitive to doom a new relationship like that. I think he just freaked out by the tabloid reports of wedding and soon future children.
26I don't like him and that extra little tidbit at the end was unnecessary. He wanted everybody to know that he didn't get dumped and but wanted to be a superhero at the same time. He's super lame. I believe that she dumped him cause she was over that situation. I hated them as a couple.
27Jennifer Aniston seems like a VERY private person. I doubt she liked that he said ANYTHING about their break-up.
28I wonder why they did break up? She's pretty, smart, funny... is he insane?
29Oh well, I am not THAT bothered about this. ;p
I think his intentions were good, but he was so emotional and ended talking way too much. You can see he's still down after this break-up and he should have kept it quiet, because his words were twisted al over the internet and tabloids. It doesn't do good to either of them.
30Does it matter who broke up with whom? Put the pride aside, the fact is these two couldn't get along. No matter how civil or uncivil the break up was, I am sure it was painful for both of them. Now John came out and "defend" Jen...I think he should just leave her alone. I hate guys just talk without an action to follow. Talk is cheap, the end.
31I find it very condescending of him pretending to "defend" her. It is obvious he wanted everybody to know it was he who broke up with her. It is so very high school.
32It is hard to find a guy who wants to commit, these days. I think the marriage story in OK magazine spooked John. He wasn't on the same page a Jen I guess! John has the right to say what he wants, but I don't think it was respectful to Jen. He was trying to cover his butt--he didn't cheat; and be sure the world knew, several times over, he was the one who ended it! Whatever John!
33He should have kept his mouth shut.jen had love him . he just to gruown up. love you jen
34Thankful.
35He cleared up the hole thing, is best for her
