John Mayer "Spending Time" with Jennifer Aniston?

You know you're a player when you're romantically linked to Scheana Marie, Kristin Cavallari, Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston in the span of a few months and are probably nailing none of the above. But it's believable!

According to Life & Style, Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer have been up to their old tricks again and are "spending a lot of quality time together."

Mmm. We all know what "spending a lot of quality time together" means. It means this celebrity gossip magazine is just plain making stuff up.

An insider says that three days prior to Jen's dinner date with co-star and rumored boyfriend Gerard Butler, she and John went out on a date.

With Courtney Cox and her husband. What's she thinking letting Jen associate with this douchebag? We thought they were friends. So sad.

John Mayer sure does get around, at least in magazines' imaginations.

“Jen’s trying to get their relationship back on its feet, so it was a big step. And Courteney is open-minded. All she wants is for Jen to be happy."

And her solution is a double-date with John Mayer? This smells fishier than Lindsay Lohan after ... oh forget it, we don't need to go there now.

The insider adds, “He has a bad reputation with women, but Jen sees John as a sensitive guy who’s pretty much has the key to her heart.”

Jen would likely call BS on this story if she weren't too busy lying in bed eating ice cream at home, lamenting how lonely and pathetic she is.
