Vince Vaughn split from Jennifer Aniston to escape the spotlight.

The "Wedding Crashers" star, who parted ways with his "The Break Up" co-star last December, decided to end the relationship because he didn't like the attention surrounding their romance.

Vince said, "If you go out with someone famous, you'll get a certain level of attention around you but it was never something I focused on. And ultimately I do the best I can - I make my movies, and that's all you really can do. I've never done a lot of magazine covers. I don't go to a lot of premieres. I don't really cultivate that."

"For me I've always made the best movies I can make and then just walked away."

The 37-year-old actor insists he has fond memories of their romance, despite the differences that came between them.

Vince said, "For me, if you like someone, you like someone. I think when we're younger we all say, 'I won't date anyone like this or that.' And then you always end up dating someone like that. Because that's what love is. You can't really pick from a logical place."

"Life is made up of all those little moments, so it's nice if you have someone who you enjoy doing things with."
