Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are keeping the status of their reignited relationship close to the vest.
The pop superstar actress, 51, and "Goodwill Hunting" star, 48, have been moving and shaking as if they are reliving their "Bennifer" past but a source told Us Weekly this week that despite their Montana vacation and frequent clandestine rendezvous in Los Angeles, the pair is in no hurry to place a label on their intensifying bond.
"Right now they’re going with the flow and making plans to meet up as often as possible, but there’s still some discussing to do before they officially go public," the insider revealed in the publication’s newest cover issue.
"It was Ben’s idea to go to Montana, a place he absolutely loves, and they had a wonderful time there just snuggling up and being together without any pressure."
The formerly engaged pair haven’t been this close since they nearly made it down the aisle in 2003 during their first go-around which ended in 2004. They postponed their wedding in 2003 just days before they were set to tie the knot.

Now, some 17 years later – the duo appears more mature and ready to make the relationship leap without reservations should the time come.
"It’s very clear they’ve fallen for each other again in a very intense way, but they don’t want to jinx anything by attaching labels or putting themselves under too much pressure," the source added to the outlet on Thursday. "When the time is right and assuming things continue to evolve romantically between them, likely a month or two, they’ll probably go Instagram official or step out hand in hand at a restaurant somewhere."

Furthermore, Us Weekly's insider also relayed that the only reason the pair hasn't gone public yet with their rekindled romance is simply due to the fact her kids adored Rodriguez and thus, Lopez doesn’t want to reacclimate them to a new partner so soon after her split from the former big league slugger.
"Jen’s kids had such a sweet connection with Alex, who really doted on them and was a model stepdad," the source explained. "They’ve had to adjust to this new dynamic of him not being around anymore, and Jen is reluctant to spring a new special someone in her life on them right away. So that will be phased in slowly, for sure, but eventually, you can count on her wanting her kids to meet Ben."
