Jennifer Lopez says she's not "forcing" marriage with boyfriend Alex Rodriguez.
"I do believe in marriage," Lopez told the magazine. "And I would love to grow old with somebody in a committed relationship. But I'm not forcing anything right now. It's good, it's healthy; we communicate well."
"We understand each other's lives in a way that most other people couldn't," she added.
"We both entered the public eye in our early 20s and overachieved right from the start. And that affects every dynamic in your life, from your family to your work to your relationships. We have a similar makeup."
Lopez previously said in an interview with E! News that her and Rodriguez's shared experiences give them a "special" understanding."He's so supportive," she said.
"It's just a different kind of business, you know, and so, to have someone who understands it and wants to be there and you want to be there for them, it's a very special thing."
Lopez started dating Rodriguez in February 2017, and dedicated a song to him on their one-year anniversary last month.
"We've been together for one year today. I don't want to get all mushy or anything, but baby, this song's for you. I love you," she said before launching into her song "Us."
