In the wake of the glorious public reunion between Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston at the SAGs, sources have explained that their relationship has hit a new level of maturity. Pitt has done a lot of apologizing.
But the two are (sigh) still apparently just friends and have moved on. Of the excitement surrounding their reunion, Pitt said: "I'm blissfully naïve and I'm gonna stay that way."
In addition to their reunion, Pitt watched his ex-wife's speech backstage with a huge smile on his face, aaaand I stan them again.

Ever since Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt had glorious chemistry at the SAG Awards this past weekend, fans lost their minds at a potential rekindled relationship between the two. According to sources close to the couple, the two are in a stronger place than ever before: And that came, in part, from lots of apologizing on Pitt's part (whoops):

Also, "a second source tells ET that the two's relationship has taken on a new level of maturity since both have gone through divorces since their split."

Meanwhile, while the world implodes from the Brad-Jen chemistry that we've all longed for, Pitt isn't paying attention to any of it. "I'm blissfully naïve and I'm gonna stay that way," he explained to ET.

And the reports are still that the two are not dating, despite everyone's (read: my) hope that one day they might rekindle things: "[Aniston] is not dating Brad. They are friends and happy for each other. They want nothing but happiness for each other...She is happy to have Brad back in her life as a friend, but that’s it."

Sigh. At least we'll always have the pics?
